6bf4123760 sched: Change wait_for_completion_*_timeout() to return a signed long
wait_for_completion_*_timeout() can return:

   0: if the wait timed out
 -ve: if the wait was interrupted
 +ve: if the completion was completed.

As they currently return an 'unsigned long', the last two cases
are not easily distinguished which can easily result in buggy
code, as is the case for the recently added
wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() call in
net/sunrpc/cache.c

So change them both to return 'long'.  As MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT
is LONG_MAX, a large +ve return value should never overflow.

7b26e5ebd8 net: typos in comments in include/linux/igmp.h
There are typos in comments in include/linux/igmp.h:

83 #define IGMP_HOST_MEMBERSHIP_QUERY      0x11    /* From RFC1112 */
84 #define IGMP_HOST_MEMBERSHIP_REPORT     0x12    /* Ditto */

90 #define IGMPV3_HOST_MEMBERSHIP_REPORT   0x22    /* V3 version of 0x11 */

The line 88 and 90 are about REPORT messages.
The IGMP_HOST_MEMBERSHIP_REPORT (IGMP V1) value is 0x12.
So the comment on line 88 must be /* V2 version of 0x12 */,
and the comment on line 90 must be /* V3 version of 0x12 */.

410cf2bd3d firewire: use split transaction timeout only for split transactions
Instead of starting the split transaction timeout timer when any request
is submitted, start it only when the destination's ACK_PENDING has been
received.  This prevents us from using a timeout that is too short, and,
if the controller's AT queue is emptying very slowly, from cancelling
a packet that has not yet been sent.

3e29027af4 dcbnl: add support for ieee8021Qaz attributes
The IEEE8021Qaz is the IEEE standard version of CEE. The
standard has had enough significant changes from the CEE
version that many of the CEE attributes have no meaning
in the new spec or do not easily map to IEEE standards.

Rather then attempt to create a complicated mapping
between CEE and IEEE standards this patch adds a nested
IEEE attribute to the list of DCB attributes. The policy
is,

	[DCB_ATTR_IFNAME]
	[DCB_ATTR_STATE]
	...
	[DCB_ATTR_IEEE]
		[DCB_ATTR_IEEE_ETS]
		[DCB_ATTR_IEEE_PFC]
		[DCB_ATTR_IEEE_APP_TABLE]
			[DCB_ATTR_IEEE_APP]
			...

The following dcbnl_rtnl_ops routines were added to handle
the IEEE standard,

	int (*ieee_getets) (struct net_device *, struct ieee_ets *);
	int (*ieee_setets) (struct net_device *, struct ieee_ets *);
	int (*ieee_getpfc) (struct net_device *, struct ieee_pfc *);
	int (*ieee_setpfc) (struct net_device *, struct ieee_pfc *);
	int (*ieee_getapp) (struct net_device *, struct dcb_app *);

fe14042358 of/flattree: Refactor unflatten_device_tree and add fdt_unflatten_tree
unflatten_device_tree has two dependencies on things that happen
during boot time.  Firstly, it references the initial device tree
directly. Secondly, it allocates memory using the early boot
allocator.  This patch factors out these dependencies and uses
the new __unflatten_device_tree function to implement a driver-visible
fdt_unflatten_tree function, which can be used to unflatten a
blob after boot time.

V2:
- remove extra __va() call
- make dt_alloc functions return void *.  This doesn't fix the general
  strangeness in this code that constantly casts back and forth between
  unsigned long and __be32 *

c7b61de5b7 PM / Runtime: Add synchronous runtime interface for interrupt handlers (v3)
This patch (as1431c) makes the synchronous runtime-PM interface
suitable for use in interrupt handlers.  Subsystems can call the new
pm_runtime_irq_safe() function to tell the PM core that a device's
runtime_suspend and runtime_resume callbacks should be invoked with
interrupts disabled and the spinlock held.  This permits the
pm_runtime_get_sync() and the new pm_runtime_put_sync_suspend()
routines to be called from within interrupt handlers.

When a device is declared irq-safe in this way, the PM core increments
the parent's usage count, so the parent will never be runtime
suspended.  This prevents difficult situations in which an irq-safe
device can't resume because it is forced to wait for its non-irq-safe
parent.

4be2c95d1f taskstats: pad taskstats netlink response for aligment issues on ia64
The taskstats structure is internally aligned on 8 byte boundaries but the
layout of the aggregrate reply, with two NLA headers and the pid (each 4
bytes), actually force the entire structure to be unaligned.  This causes
the kernel to issue unaligned access warnings on some architectures like
ia64.  Unfortunately, some software out there doesn't properly unroll the
NLA packet and assumes that the start of the taskstats structure will
always be 20 bytes from the start of the netlink payload.  Aligning the
start of the taskstats structure breaks this software, which we don't
want.  So, for now the alignment only happens on architectures that
require it and those users will have to update to fixed versions of those
packages.  Space is reserved in the packet only when needed.  This ifdef
should be removed in several years e.g.  2012 once we can be confident
that fixed versions are installed on most systems.  We add the padding
before the aggregate since the aggregate is already a defined type.

Commit 85893120 ("delayacct: align to 8 byte boundary on 64-bit systems")
previously addressed the alignment issues by padding out the pid field.
This was supposed to be a compatible change but the circumstances
described above mean that it wasn't.  This patch backs out that change,
since it was a hack, and introduces a new NULL attribute type to provide
the padding.  Padding the response with 4 bytes avoids allocating an
aligned taskstats structure and copying it back.  Since the structure
weighs in at 328 bytes, it's too big to do it on the stack.

4e06fd14d5 include/linux/unaligned: pack the whole struct rather than just the field
The current packed struct implementation of unaligned access adds the
packed attribute only to the field within the unaligned struct rather than
to the struct as a whole.  This is not sufficient to enforce proper
behaviour on architectures with a default struct alignment of more than
one byte.

For example, the current implementation of __get_unaligned_cpu16 when
compiled for arm with gcc -O1 -mstructure-size-boundary=32 assumes the
struct is on a 4 byte boundary so performs the load of the 16bit packed
field as if it were on a 4 byte boundary:

__get_unaligned_cpu16:
        ldrh    r0, [r0, #0]
        bx      lr

Moving the packed attribute to the struct rather than the field causes the
proper unaligned access code to be generated:

__get_unaligned_cpu16:
	ldrb	r3, [r0, #0]	@ zero_extendqisi2
	ldrb	r0, [r0, #1]	@ zero_extendqisi2
	orr	r0, r3, r0, asl #8
	bx	lr

4a7863cc2e x86, nmi_watchdog: Remove ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and rely on CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR
The x86 arch has shifted its use of the nmi_watchdog from a
local implementation to the global one provide by
kernel/watchdog.c.  This shift has caused a whole bunch of
compile problems under different config options.  I attempt to
simplify things with the patch below.

In order to simplify things, I had to come to terms with the
meaning of two terms ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG and
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR.  Basically they mean the same thing,
the former on a local level and the latter on a global level.

With the old x86 nmi watchdog gone, there is no need to rely on
defining the ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG variable because it doesn't
make sense any more.  x86 will now use the global
implementation.

The changes below do a few things.  First it changes the few
places that relied on ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG to use
CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC (the former was an alias for the latter
anyway, so nothing unusual here).  Those pieces of code were
relying more on local apic functionality the nmi watchdog
functionality, so the change should make sense.

Second, I removed the x86 implementation of
touch_nmi_watchdog().  It isn't need now, instead x86 will rely
on kernel/watchdog.c's implementation.

Third, I removed the #define ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG itself from
x86.  And tweaked the include/linux/nmi.h file to tell users to
look for an externally defined touch_nmi_watchdog in the case of
ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _or_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR. This
changes removes some of the ugliness in that file.

Finally, I added a Kconfig dependency for
CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR that said you can't have
ARCH_HAS_NMI_WATCHDOG _and_ CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR.  You can
only have one nmi_watchdog.

Tested with
ARCH=i386: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig, (various broken
configs) ARCH=x86_64: allnoconfig, defconfig, allyesconfig,
(various broken configs)

Hopefully, after this patch I won't get any more compile broken
emails. :-)

v3:
  changed a couple of 'linux/nmi.h' -> 'asm/nmi.h' to pick-up correct function
  prototypes when CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR is not set.

da1f026b53 Keyboard: omap-keypad: use matrix_keypad.h
Most keypad drivers make use of the <linux/input/matrix_keypad.h>
defined macros, structures and inline functions.

Convert omap-keypad driver to use those as well, as suggested by a
compile time warning, hardcoded into the OMAP <palt/keypad.h>.

Created against linux-2.6.37-rc5.
Tested on Amstrad Delta.
Compile tested with omap1_defconfig and omap2plus_defconfig shrinked to
board-h4.
