* V4L/DVB (5011): DVB: Remove unneeded void * casts in ttpci/av7110Tobias Klauser2007-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch removes unneeded void * casts for the following (void *) pointers: - struct file: private_data - struct dvb_device: priv - struct dvb_demux: priv - struct dvb_adapter: priv The patch also contains some whitespace and coding style cleanups in the relevant areas.

* V4L/DVB (4999): [PATCH] Cablestar2 supportAntti Seppälä2007-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes the initialization of alps tdee4 tuner in flexcop-fe-tuner.c to match what is used in the old driver that was written specifically for Cablestar cards by Patrick Boettcher. This patch should make Cablestar2 work again with recent dvb drivers without breaking other stv0297 based cards.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Driver for the Silicon Motion SM501 multifunction device framebuffer subsystem. This driver supports both the CRT and LCD panel heads, with some simple acceleration for the cursor plotting and support for screen panning. There is no current support for bitblt/drawing engines, which should be added at a later date. This has been tested on a number of configurations, including PCI and generic-bus, on PPC, ARM and SH4 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix warnings] Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> Signed-off-by: Vincent Sanders <vince@arm.linux.org.u.> Acked-by: James Simmons <jsimmons@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* [PATCH] at91_rtc updatesDavid Brownell2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various bug fixes to the at91rm9200 RTC: - alarm: setalarm() should pay attention to the "enabled" flag - init: cleaner handling of the wakeup flags, which cpu init should really have set up. Doing it here is just a workaround. - linkage: since the at91_rtc driver probe() routine is in the init section, it should use platform_driver_probe() instead of leaving that pointer around in the driver struct after init section removal. - linkage: likewise, remove() belongs in the exit section. Among other things, the init and alarm changes ensure that this driver handles the new sysfs "wakealarm" attribute properly.

* [PATCH] rtc-sa1100 rtc_wklarm.enabled bugfixesDavid Brownell2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some rtc-sa1100 bugfixes: - The read_alarm() method reports the rtc_wkalrm.enabled field properly. This patch is already in the handhelds.org tree. - And the set_alarm() method now handles that flag correctly, rather than making mismatched {en,dis}able_irq_wake() calls, which trigger runtime warning messages. (Those calls are best made in suspend/resume methods.) Note that while this SA1100/PXA RTC is fully capable of waking those ARM processors from sleep states, that mechanism isn't properly supported on either processor family, or in this driver. Some boards have board-specific PM glue providing partial workarounds for the weak generic PM support.

* [PATCH] cfag12864b: fix crash when built-in and no parport presentMiguel Ojeda2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem comes when ks0108/cfag12864b are built-in and no parallel port is present. ks0108_init() is called first, as it should be, but fails to load (as there is no parallel port to use). After that, cfag12864b_init() gets called, without knowing anything about ks0108 failed, and calls ks0108_writecontrol(), which dereferences an uninitialized pointer. Init order is OK, I think. The problem is how to stop cfag12864b_init() being called if ks0108 failed to load. modprobe does it for us, but, how when built-in?

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nearly all of the writes to the bcm43xx internal lookup tables (ilt) involve 16-bit quantities. Accordingly, the ilt_write routine was coded to pass a u16 value. For one early GPHY chip, 32-bit quantities are needed. For those writes, the value was clipped to 16 bits. This patch adds an ilt_write32 routine that receives a 32-bit quantity and writes it to the appropriate locations. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger<Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

| * | | r8169: RTNL and flush_scheduled_work deadlockFrancois Romieu2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | flush_scheduled_work() in net_device->close has a slight tendency to deadlock with tasks on the workqueue that hold RTNL. rtl8169_close/down simply need the recovery tasks to not meddle with the hardware while the device is going down.

| * | | | backlight: Separate backlight properties from backlight ops pointersRichard Purdie2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per device data such as brightness belongs to the indivdual device and should therefore be separate from the the backlight operation function pointers. This patch splits the two types of data and allows simplifcation of some code. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
