serial: add support for the Lava Quattro PCI quad-port 16550A card

2009-11-12T15:25:57Z

This seems to be a different model (with a different PCI ID) than the "Quatro" card that is also in the list. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek Cc: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

fb: remove fb_save_state() and fb_restore_state operations

2009-11-12T15:25:56Z

Remove fb_save_state() and fb_restore_state operations from frame buffer layer. They are used only in two drivers: 1. savagefb - and cause bug #11248 2. uvesafb Usage of these operations is misunderstood in both drivers so kill these operations, fix the bug #11248 and avoid confusion in the future. Tested on Savage 3D/MV card and the patch fixes the bug #11248. The frame buffer layer uses these funtions during switch between graphics and text mode of the console, but these drivers saves state before switching of the frame buffer (in the fb_open) and after releasing it (in the fb_release). This defeats the purpose of these operations.

ext3: Wait for proper transaction commit on fsync

2009-11-11T14:22:49Z

We cannot rely on buffer dirty bits during fsync because pdflush can come before fsync is called and clear dirty bits without forcing a transaction commit. What we do is that we track which transaction has last changed the inode and which transaction last changed allocation and force it to disk on fsync.

i2c: Add an interface to lock/unlock an I2C bus segment

2009-11-07T12:10:46Z

Some drivers need to be able to prevent access to an I2C bus segment for a specific period of time. Add an interface for them to do so without twiddling with i2c-core internals. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare Acked-by: Ben Hutchings

Driver core: allow certain drivers prohibit bind/unbind via sysfs

2009-10-30T21:59:51Z

Platform drivers registered via platform_driver_probe() can be bound to devices only once, upon registration, because discard their probe() routines to save memory. Unbinding the driver through sysfs 'unbind' leaves the device stranded and confuses users so let's not create bind and unbind attributes for such drivers.

net: fix sk_forward_alloc corruption

2009-10-30T19:25:12Z

On UDP sockets, we must call skb_free_datagram() with socket locked, or risk sk_forward_alloc corruption. This requirement is not respected in SUNRPC. Add a convenient helper, skb_free_datagram_locked() and use it in SUNRPC Reported-by: Francis Moreau Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
