2012-05-31md: raid1/raid10: fix problem with merge_bvec_fnNeilBrown
The new merge_bvec_fn which calls the corresponding function in subsidiary devices requires that mddev->merge_check_needed be set if any child has a merge_bvec_fn. However were were only setting that when a device was hot-added, not when a device was present from the start. This bug was introduced in 3.4 so patch is suitable for 3.4.y kernels. However that are conflicts in raid10.c so a separate patch will be needed for 3.4.y.

2012-05-30xen/blkback: Copy id field when doing BLKIF_DISCARD.Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
We weren't copying the id field so when we sent the response back to the frontend (especially with a 64-bit host and 32-bit guest), we ended up using a random value. This lead to the frontend crashing as it would try to pass to __blk_end_request_all a NULL 'struct request' (b/c it would use the 'id' to find the proper 'struct request' in its shadow array) and end up crashing: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000000e4 IP: [<c0646d4c>] __blk_end_request_all+0xc/0x40 .. snip..

2012-05-30virtio-net: remove useless disable on freezeMichael S. Tsirkin
disable_cb is just an optimization: it can not guarantee that there are no callbacks. In particular it doesn't have any effect when event index is on. Instead, detach, napi disable and reset on freeze ensure we don't run concurrently with a callback. Remove the useless calls so we get same behaviour with and without event index.

2012-05-30[SCSI] fix scsi_wait_scanJames Bottomley
Commit c751085943362143f84346d274e0011419c84202 Author: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Date: Sun Apr 12 20:06:56 2009 +0200 PM/Hibernate: Wait for SCSI devices scan to complete during resume Broke the scsi_wait_scan module in 2.6.30. Apparently debian still uses it so fix it and backport to stable before removing it in 3.6. The breakage is caused because the function template in include/scsi/scsi_scan.h is defined to be a nop unless SCSI is built in. That means that in the modular case (which is every distro), the scsi_wait_scan module does a simple async_synchronize_full() instead of waiting for scans.

In practice, the caller will have to setup a buffer large enough to cover the case where received length byte has value 32, so minimum 32 + 1 = 33 bytes, possibly more if there is a fixed number of bytes added for the specific slave (for example a checksum.)

2012-05-30watchdog: Add support for dynamically allocated watchdog_device structsHans de Goede
If a driver's watchdog_device struct is part of a dynamically allocated struct (which it often will be), merely locking the module is not enough, even with a drivers module locked, the driver can be unbound from the device, examples: 1) The root user can unbind it through sysfd 2) The i2c bus master driver being unloaded for an i2c watchdog I will gladly admit that these are corner cases, but we still need to handle them correctly. The fix for this consists of 2 parts: 1) Add ref / unref operations, so that the driver can refcount the struct holding the watchdog_device struct and delay freeing it until any open filehandles referring to it are closed 2) Most driver operations will do IO on the device and the driver should not do any IO on the device after it has been unbound. Rather then letting each driver deal with this internally, it is better to ensure at the watchdog core level that no operations (other then unref) will get called after the driver has called watchdog_unregister_device().

2012-05-30watchdog: Add Locking supportHans de Goede
This patch fixes some potential multithreading issues, despite only allowing one process to open the /dev/watchdog device, we can still get called multiple times at the same time, since a program could be using thread, or could share the fd after a fork. This causes 2 potential problems: 1) watchdog_start / open do an unlocked test_n_set / test_n_clear, if these 2 race, the watchdog could be stopped while the active bit indicates it is running or visa versa. 2) Most watchdog_dev drivers probably assume that only one watchdog-op will get called at a time, this is not necessary true atm.
