      cpuidle: add maintainer entry · a8e39c35
      Daniel Lezcano 提交于
      Currently cpuidle drivers are spread across different archs.
      
      As a result, there are several different paths for cpuidle patch
      submissions: cpuidle core changes go through linux-pm, ARM driver
      changes go to the arm-soc or SoC-specific trees, sh changes go
      through the sh arch tree, pseries changes go through the PowerPC tree
      and finally intel changes go through the Len's tree while ACPI idle
      changes go through linux-pm.
      
      That makes it difficult to consolidate code and to propagate
      modifications from the cpuidle core to the different drivers.
      
      Hopefully, a movement has started to put the majority of cpuidle
      drivers under drivers/cpuidle like cpuidle-calxeda.c and
      cpuidle-kirkwood.c.
      
      Add a maintainer entry for cpuidle to MAINTAINERS to clarify the
      situation and to indicate to new cpuidle driver authors that those
      drivers should not go into arch-specific directories.
      
      The upstreaming process is unchanged: Rafael takes patches for
      merging into his tree, but with an Acked-by: tag from the driver's
      maintainer, so indicate in the drivers' headers who maintains them.
      
      The arrangement will be the same as for cpufreq.

      ACPI: video: correct acpi_video_bus_add error processing · 91e13aa3
      Aaron Lu 提交于
      acpi_video_bus_get_devices() may fail due to some video output device
      doesn't have the _ADR method, and in this case, the error processing
      is to simply free the video structure in acpi_video_bus_add(), while
      leaving those already registered video output devices in the wild,
      which means for some video output device, we have already registered
      a backlight interface and installed a notification handler for it.
      So it can happen when user is using this system, on hotkey pressing,
      the notification handler will send a keycode through a non-existing
      input device, causing kernel freeze.
      
      To solve this problem, free all those already registered video output
      devices once something goes wrong in acpi_video_bus_get_devices(), so
      that no wild backlight interfaces and notification handlers exist.
