documented under Documentation/ABI, this is not yet mentioned in the

Fix regression for HVM case on older (<4.1.1) hypervisors caused by

  Date:   Thu Dec 2 17:55:10 2010 +0000

    xen: PV on HVM: support PV spinlocks and IPIs

This change replaced the SMP operations with event based handlers without
taking into account that this only works when the hypervisor supports
callback vectors. This causes unexplainable hangs early on boot for
HVM guests with more than one CPU.

This fixes a regression introduced by commit cdcb725c ("Btrfs: check

divides on 32-bit architectures.

In cases where we need to divide/multiply by 2 we should just left/right

do_div.  Also make the counters u64 to match up with rw_devices.

Currently HD-audio driver shows the all error ELD byte as an error
in the kernel message.  This is annoying when the video driver doesn't
set the correct ELD from the beginning. e.g. radeon sends a zero-byte
data, but we still check ELD with the fixed 128 byte as a workaround
for some broken devices, it spews 128-times errors.

For avoiding this, the driver aborts reading when the first byte is
invalid.  In such a case, the whole data is certainly invalid.

  drm/i915: set GFX_MODE to pre-Ivybridge default value even on Ivybridge

There is a race between ext4 buffer write and direct_IO read with
dioread_nolock mount option enabled. The problem is that we clear
PageWriteback flag during end_io time but will do
uninitialized-to-initialized extent conversion later with dioread_nolock.
If an O_direct read request comes in during this period, ext4 will return
zero instead of the recently written data.

This patch checks whether there are any pending uninitialized-to-initialized
extent conversion requests before doing O_direct read to close the race.
Note that this is just a bandaid fix. The fundamental issue is that we
clear PageWriteback flag before we really complete an IO, which is
problem-prone. To fix the fundamental issue, we may need to implement an
extent tree cache that we can use to look up pending to-be-converted extents.

Prior to Ivybridge, the GFX_MODE would default to 0x800, meaning that
MI_FLUSH would flush the TLBs in addition to the rest of the caches
indicated in the MI_FLUSH command.  However starting with Ivybridge, the
register defaults to 0x2800 out of reset, meaning that to invalidate the
TLB we need to use PIPE_CONTROL.  Since we're not doing that yet, go
back to the old default so things work.

The recent fix for testing dB range at the mixer creation time seems
to cause regressions in some devices.  In such devices, reading the dB
info at probing time gives an error, thus both dBmin and dBmax are still
zero, and TLV flag isn't set although the later read of dB info succeeds.

This patch adds a workaround for such a case by assuming that the later
read will succeed.  In future, a similar test should be performed in a
case where a wrong dB range is seen even in the later read.

Currently, error handling code in this function calls the function
sata_dwc_port_stop, but this function has essentially no effect if hsdevp
has not been stored in ap, which is the case throughout this function.  The
only effect is to print a debugging message including ap->print_id.

The code is rewritten to not call sata_dwc_port_stop, but instead to jump
to a local label that prints the original error message and the print_id
information.  In the case where hsdevp has been already allocated (but not
yet stored in ap), this value is freed as well.
