* [PATCH] IPMI: fix for handling bad ACPI dataCorey Minyard2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | If the ACPI register bit width is zero (an invalid value) assume it is the default spacing. This avoids some coredumps on invalid data and makes some systems work that have broken ACPI data.

* [PATCH] IPMI: fix for handling bad IPMI DMI dataCorey Minyard2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | Ignore the bottom bit of the base address from the DMI data. It is supposed to be set to 1 if it is I/O space. Few systems do this, but this enables the ones that do set it to work properly.

* [PATCH] misc verify_area cleanupsJesper Juhl2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were still a few comments left refering to verify_area, and two functions, verify_area_skas & verify_area_tt that just wrap corresponding access_ok_skas & access_ok_tt functions, just like verify_area does for access_ok - deprecate those. There was also a few places that still used verify_area in commented-out code, fix those up to use access_ok. After applying this one there should not be anything left but finally removing verify_area completely, which will happen after a kernel release or two.

* [PATCH] vgacon: set vc_hi_font_mask correctlyBill Nottingham2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When allocating a new VC with vgacon_init(), the font is shared across all the VGA consoles. However, the font mask was always set to the default value of zero in visual_init(), even if we were using 512 character fonts at the time. Moreover, code in vgacon.c:vga_do_font_op() didn't reset the mask if the console driver thinks it's already in 512 character mode. This means that to *fix* it, you'd actually have to take the console out of 512 character mode and then set it back. The attached sets vc_hi_font_mask in vgacon_init() for any new consoles opened if the vgacon driver is already in 512 character mode, solving this. This bug goes back to 2.4.18 at least, probably earlier. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] nbd: Don't create all MAX_NBD devices by default all the timeLars Marowsky-Bree2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | This patches adds the "nbds_max" parameter to the nbd kernel module, which limits the number of nbds allocated. Previously, always all 128 entries were allocated unconditionally, which used to waste resources and needlessly flood the hotplug system with events. (Defaults to 16 now.)

* [PATCH] LifeView FlyTV Platinum FM: GPIO usagePeter Missel2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is take two of a patch that should have appeared two days ago, before yesterday's "remote control" patch for the same card. This patch sets unconnected GPIO to Output to keep them from floating (just good driver writing practice, being nice to the chip), and uses GPIO16 to switch TV vs. FM - this pin switches inputs onto the tuner, as well as the audio output from the tuner into the 7135 SIF input. Consequently, FM radio support is being un-commented because it's now working (sort of, see below). These two patches get the card almost fully operational; there appears to be a bug in tda8290.c remaining that puts an offset onto the tuned frequency in FM radio mode. We're investigating.

* [PATCH] ppc32: Fix IDE related crash on wakeupBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed an occasional crash on wakeup from sleep on my powerbook (strangly never happened before, probably timing related) that appears to be due to a dangling interrupt while the chip is put to sleep and beeing reset on wakeup. This patch fixes is by disabling the irq in the ide pmac driver while asleep and only re-enable it after the chip has been fully reset. This is safe to do so as the interrupt of these apple IDE cells is never shared.

* | [PATCH] Add suspend method to cpufreq coreBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-04-29
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to properly fix some issues with cpufreq vs. sleep on PowerBooks, I had to add a suspend callback to the pmac_cpufreq driver. I must force a switch to full speed before sleep and I switch back to previous speed on resume. I also added a driver flag to disable the warnings in suspend/resume since it is expected in this case to have different speed (and I want it to fixup the jiffies properly).
