[SPARC64]: Fix of_iounmap() region release.

2006-12-31T22:06:05+00:00

We need to pass in the resource otherwise we cannot
release the region properly.  We must know whether it is
an I/O or MEM resource.

[PATCH] gxt4500: Fix colormap and PLL setting, support GXT6000P

2006-12-22T16:55:50+00:00

This fixes some bugs in the gxt4500 framebuffer driver, and adds support
for GXT6000P cards.

First, I had the red and blue channels swapped in the colormap update code,
resulting in penguins' noses and feet turning blue (though the penguins
weren't actually shivering :).

Secondly, the code that calculated the values to put in the PLL that
generates the pixel clock wasn't observing some constraints that I wasn't
originally aware of, but am now that I have some documentation on the chip.

The GXT6000P is essentially identical from software's point of view, except
for a different reference clock for the PLL, and the addition of a geometry
engine (which this driver doesn't use).

ACPI: video: Add dev argument for backlight_device_register

2006-12-20T06:42:19+00:00

This patch set adds generic abstract layer support for acpi video driver to
have generic user interface to control backlight and output switch control by
leveraging the existing backlight sysfs class driver, and by adding a new
video output sysfs class driver.

This patch:

Add dev argument for backlight_device_register to link the class device to
real device object.  The platform specific driver should find a way to get the
real device object for their video device.

[PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() calls

2006-12-13T17:05:58+00:00

Run this:

	#!/bin/sh
	for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
	  echo "De-casting $f..."
	  perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
	done

And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.

And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.
