2010-08-06SCSI: remove fake "address-of" expressionAlan Stern
Fake "address-of" expressions that evaluate to NULL generally confuse readers and can provoke compiler warnings. This patch (as1411) removes one such fake expression, using an "#ifdef" in its place.

2010-08-06kconfig: fix make oldconfigSam Ravnborg
Linus wrote: This seems to make "make oldconfig" a _lot_ more verbose than it used to be. In a very annoying way. I just did a quick git bisect. It's introduced by commit 4062f1a4c030 ("kconfig: use long options in conf") by Sam Ravnborg. Apparently that thing is totally buggy, and doesn't just change the option names, but actively breaks them. The old behaviour (from years ago) were reintroduced by accident. Fix this so we are back to the version that are silent if there is nothing to ask about.

2010-08-06Fix init ordering of /dev/console vs callers of modprobeDavid Howells
Make /dev/console get initialised before any initialisation routine that invokes modprobe because if modprobe fails, it's going to want to open /dev/console, presumably to write an error message to. The problem with that is that if the /dev/console driver is not yet initialised, the chardev handler will call request_module() to invoke modprobe, which will fail, because we never compile /dev/console as a module. This will lead to a modprobe loop, showing the following in the kernel log: request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1 This can happen, for example, when the built in md5 module can't find the built in cryptomgr module (because the latter fails to initialise). The md5 module comes before the call to tty_init(), presumably because 'crypto' comes before 'drivers' alphabetically. Fix this by calling tty_init() from chrdev_init().

2010-08-06KEYS: request_key() should return -ENOKEY if the constructed key is negativeDavid Howells

2010-08-05Driver core: Add BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVERMagnus Damm
Add BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER as a bus notifier event. For driver binding/unbinding we with this in place have the following bus notifier events: - BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER - before ->probe() - BUS_NOTIFY_BOUND_DRIVER - after ->probe() - BUS_NOTIFY_UNBIND_DRIVER - before ->remove() - BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER - after ->remove() The event BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER allows bus code to be notified that ->probe() is about to be called. Useful for bus code that needs to setup hardware before the driver gets to run. With this in place platform drivers can be loaded and unloaded as modules and the new BIND event allows bus code to control for instance device clocks that must be enabled before the driver can be executed. Without this patch there is no way for the bus code to get notified that a modular driver is about to be probed.

2010-08-05Driver core: Drop __must_check from bus_for_each_drv()Jean Delvare
There is little rationale for marking bus_for_each_drv() __must_check. It is more of an iteration helper than a real function. You don't know in advance which callback it will be used on, so you have no clue how important it can be to check the returned value. In practice, this helper function can be used for best-effort tasks. As a matter of fact, bus_for_each_dev() is not marked __must_check. So remove it from bus_for_each_drv() as well. This is the same that was done back in October 2006 by Russell King for device_for_each_child(), for exactly the same reasons.

struct dma_coherent_mem in drivers/base/dma-coherent.c has member 'device_base' that is of type u32, but is assigned value of type dma_addr_t, which may be 64 bits for x86_64. Change the type to dma_addr_t. Signed-off-by: Marin Mitov <mitov@issp.bas.bg> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2010-08-05hotplug: Support kernel/hotplug sysctl variable when !CONFIG_NETIan Abbott
The kernel/hotplug sysctl variable (/proc/sys/kernel/hotplug file) was made conditional on CONFIG_NET by commit f743ca5e10f4145e0b3e6d11b9b46171e16af7ce (applied in 2.6.18) to fix problems with undefined references in 2.6.16 when CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y && !CONFIG_NET, but this restriction is no longer needed. This patch makes the kernel/hotplug sysctl variable depend only on CONFIG_HOTPLUG.
