Request_region should be used with release_region, not release_resource.
This patch contains a number of changes, related to calls to request_region,
request_mem_region, and the associated error handling code.
1. For the call to request_region, the variable io_resource storing the
result is dropped. The call to release_resource at the end of the function
is changed to a call to release_region with the first two arguments of
request_region as its arguments. The same call to release_region is also
added to release_ipwireless.
2. The first call to request_mem_region is now tested and ret is set to
-EBUSY if the the call has failed. This call was associated with the
initialization of ipw->attr_memory. But the error handling code was
testing ipw->common_memory. The definition of release_ipwireless also
suggests that this call should be associated with ipw->common_memory, not
ipw->attr_memory.
3. The second call to request_mem_region is now tested and ret is
set to -EBUSY if the the call has failed.
4. The various gotos to the error handling code is adjusted so that there
is no need for ifs.
5. Return the value stored in the ret variable rather than -1.

This reintroduces commit 47970b1b which was subsequently reverted
as f00eaeea. The original change was broken and caused X startup
failures and generally made privileged processes incapable of reading
device dependent config space. The normal capable() interface returns
true on success, but the LSM interface returns 0 on success. This thinko
is now fixed in this patch, and has been confirmed to work properly.
So, once again...Eric Paris noted that commit de139a3 ("pci: check caps
from sysfs file open to read device dependent config space") caused the
capability check to bypass security modules and potentially auditing.
Rectify this by calling security_capable() when checking the open file's
capabilities for config space reads.

RTC: Fix minor compile warning
RTC: Convert rtc drivers to use the alarm_irq_enable method
RTC: Fix rtc driver ioctl specific shortcutting
Currently when two or more buffers are queued by the camera driver
and so the double buffering is enabled in the idmac, we lose one
frame comming from CSI since the reporting of arrival of the first
frame is deferred by the DMAIC_7_EOF interrupt handler and reporting
of the arrival of the last frame is not done at all. So when requesting
N frames from the image sensor we actually receive N - 1 frames in
user space.
The reason for this behaviour is that the DMAIC_7_EOF interrupt
handler misleadingly assumes that the CUR_BUF flag is pointing to the
buffer used by the IDMAC. Actually it is not the case since the
CUR_BUF flag will be flipped by the FSU when the FSU is sending the
<TASK>_NEW_FRM_RDY signal when new frame data is delivered by the CSI.
When sending this singal, FSU updates the DMA_CUR_BUF and the
DMA_BUFx_RDY flags: the DMA_CUR_BUF is flipped, the DMA_BUFx_RDY
is cleared, indicating that the frame data is beeing written by
the IDMAC to the pointed buffer. DMA_BUFx_RDY is supposed to be
set to the ready state again by the MCU, when it has handled the
received data. DMAIC_7_CUR_BUF flag won't be flipped here by the
IPU, so waiting for this event in the EOF interrupt handler is wrong.
Actually there is no spurious interrupt as described in the comments,
this is the valid DMAIC_7_EOF interrupt indicating reception of the
frame from CSI.
The patch removes code that waits for flipping of the DMAIC_7_CUR_BUF
flag in the DMAIC_7_EOF interrupt handler. As the comment in the
current code denotes, this waiting doesn't help anyway. As a result
of this removal the reporting of the first arrived frame is not
deferred to the time of arrival of the next frame and the drivers
software flag 'ichan->active_buffer' is in sync with DMAIC_7_CUR_BUF
flag, so the reception of all requested frames works.
This has been verified on the hardware which is triggering the
image sensor by the programmable state machine, allowing to
obtain exact number of frames. On this hardware we do not tolerate
losing frames.
This patch also removes resetting the DMA_BUFx_RDY flags of
all channels in ipu_disable_channel() since transfers on other
DMA channels might be triggered by other running tasks and the
buffers should always be ready for data sending or reception.

The colorbuffer, zbuffer, and texture states are checked only once when

lots of draw packets and few state changes.
This drops performance in glxgears by a 1% or so, but glxgears is not
a benchmark we care about.

drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/mkregtable.c:parser_auth() almost always remembers
to fclose(file) before returning, but it misses two spots.
This is not really important since the process will exit shortly after and
thus close the file for us, but being explicit prevents static analysis
tools from complaining about leaked memory and missing fclose() calls and
it also seems to be the prefered style of the existing code to explicitly
close the file.
So, here's a patch to add the two missing fclose() calls.

"ACPI video: remove output switching control", namely the removal of

This is needed on some Fujitsu Laptops (at least S7110, P8010) for the
ACPI backlight interface to work, as an these machines, neither ROM nor
posting methods are available, and after removal of output switching,
none of the caps triggers, which prevents the backlight search from
being entered.

Instrumenting the nbd module's ioctl handler with some extra logging
clearly shows the NBD_DO_IT ioctl being invoked which is a long-lived
ioctl in the sense that it doesn't return until another ioctl asks the
driver to disconnect. However, that other ioctl blocks, waiting for the
module-level mutex that replaced the BKL, and then we're stuck.
This patch removes the module-level mutex altogether. It's clearly
wrong, and as far as I can see, it's entirely unnecessary, since the nbd
driver maintains per-device mutexes, and I don't see anything that would
require a module-level (or kernel-level, for that matter) mutex.

Add a mutex to register communication and handling. Without the mutex,
GPIOs didn't switch as expected when toggled in a fast sequence of
status changes of multiple outputs.

The irony of the patch to fix the resume regression on PineView causing
a further regression on Ironlake is not lost on me.

The documentation recommends that we should use a polling method for TV
detection as this is more power efficient than the interrupt based
mechanism (as the encoder can be completely switched off). A secondary
effect is that leaving the hotplug enabled seems to be causing pipe
underruns as reported by Hugh Dickins on his Crestline.
