The IPMI BT subdriver has been patched to survive "long busy" timeouts seen
during firmware upgrades and resets.  The patch never returns the HOSED state,
synthesizes response messages with meaningful completion codes, and recovers
gracefully when the hardware finishes the long busy.  The subdriver now issues
a "Get BT Capabilities" command and properly uses those results.  More
informative completion codes are returned on error from transaction starts;
this logic was propogated to the KCS and SMIC subdrivers.  Finally, indent and
other style quirks were normalized.

When the IPMI message handler requested that the interface look for events,
the ipmi_si driver would request flags, see if the event buffer full flag was
set, then request events.  It's better to just send the request for events, as
it cuts one message out of the transaction if there happens to be events, and
it will fetch events even if the event buffer was not full.

Some commands and operations on a BMC can cause the BMC to "go away" for a
while.  This can cause the automatic flag processing and other things of that
nature to timeout and generate annoying logs, or possibly cause other bad

Heh, the very first line:

fs/exec.c:
  1477		/*
  1478		 *	We cannot trust fsuid as being the "true" uid of the

  1482		if (mm->dumpable == 2) {	/* Setuid core dump mode */
  1483			flag = O_EXCL;		/* Stop rewrite attacks */
  1484			current->fsuid = 0;	/* Dump root private */
  1485		}

And then filp_open follows with "flag" totally ignored.

(akpm: this restores the code to Alan's original version.  Andi's "Support
piping into commands in /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern" (cset d025c9db) broke
it).

Twenty characters in cp936 are not correctly handled.  They're all in the

some characters.(e.g.  U00B7 -> A1A4, U00A8 -> A1A7).

This problem is fixed by generating u2c_00 based on all c2u_xx and changing
uni2char() to give U00 plane a special handling.  The "€"(U20AC,80 in
cp936) is also be handled properly.
