[PATCH] Remove fcntl f_op
The newly introduced ->fcntl file_operation is badly thought out,
not to mention undocumented. This patch replaces it with two better
defined operations -- check_flags and dir_notify. Any other fcntl()s
that filesystems are interested in can have their own properly typed
f_op method when they need it.

Patch from Marc Singer
The work already done to rectify the timer code initialization missed
a necessary change. This patch adds a timer initialization function
to the LPD7A400 machine type. It also makes a small correction to the
kernel configuration that is out of step with the machine specific
Kconfig.

Be a bit more anal about allowing SCSI commands to be sent.
Normal users shouldn't have access to the raw device anyway
unless they are in the trusted "disk" group, but let's require
RAWIO capabilities. That's what the original SCSI interfaces
did anyhoo.
We probably _should_ just require write access, but that will
need more of a code change to pass down the file descriptor.

[PATCH] wrong mac address with netgear FA311 ethernet card
From: Mathieu LESNIAK <maverick@eskuel.net>
This patch corrects a problem with Netgear FA311
ethernet card (a cheap one). Without it, the MAC address is byte swapped
ie :
HWaddr 02:00:07:E3:E9:F5
instead of :
HWaddr 00:02:E3:07:F5:E9
(the correct MAC address vendor code for Netgear/LiteOn is 00:02:E3)

[PATCH] Atmel wireless bigendian fix.
The following patch adds a couple of missing byteswaps and allows the
Atmel wireless driver to work in WEP mode on big-endian CPUs. (tested
on powerPC).
* Change the "version" OID to what it should be.
* Fix memory leaks - mgt_get_request always returns
* allocated memory for non-int OIDS (with an exception -
* keep reading). If the caller checks the return and itself
* returns, then it must free memory.
* However, it is possible to return from mgt_get_request
* early (!priv->mib). In this case, weird things can happen
* in isl_ioctl. Quick fix, at least to force an oops, is
* to set the union value to NULL. The real fix is to
* recode all mgt_get_request calls in isl_ioctl.
* We are handing back HANDLED even though the IRQ is not for us.
We also change device state.
This is plainly wrong.
AFAICT we also need to take the spin lock early.
Tested/running on UP/SMP for about a week now.
(Discovered on one of my lappies that had the X driver on the same IRQ)
(Proposed on Prism54 Devel with no objections)
* It seems that Viro patched prism54 with the following patch set :
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/cset/
cset-viro@www.linux.org.uk[torvalds]|ChangeSet|20040727040034|54764.txt
* I do not see any indication in any mailing list of this.
It would be nice if we could be informed of such changes :-)
Removing the __section__() fixes it, as does moving to gcc 3.2 or 3.3,
but gcc 2.95 and 3.0 still exhibit the problem. It seems the 4k stack
developers like newer compilers than I do :)
The gcc 2.95 section declaration looks like this:
.section .bss.page_aligned,"aw",@progbits
while the 3.1 section looks like this:
.section .bss.page_aligned,"aw",@nobits
It's definitely a bug that's been fixed:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2002-10/msg00507.html
I've been told that I can fix it with a carefully crafted assembly file and
maybe a change to the linker script, but all that it buys us is a little
space in the uncompressed kernel image. Plus, the warning will still be
there at compile-time.
I say, put them back in plain old BSS.

Fix up sound driver proc-reading interfaces.

impossible or a low-level sound driver to get right, since
the core sound code didn't even export all the necessary

Add the file offset to the /proc read interfaces, and make

need to worry.
