98fcb5f781 USB: serial: usb_debug,usb_generic_serial: implement sysrq and serial break
The usb_debug driver was modified to implement serial break handling
by using a "magic" data packet comprised of the sequence:

       0x00 0xff 0x01 0xfe   0x00 0xfe 0x01 0xff

When the tty layer requests a serial break the usb_debug driver sends
the magic packet.  On the receiving side the magic packet is thrown
away or a sysrq is activated depending on what kernel .config options
have been set.

The generic serial driver was modified as well as the usb serial
headers to generically implement sysrq processing in the same way the
non usb uart based drivers implement the sysrq handling.  This will
allow other usb serial devices to implement sysrq handling as desired.

The new usb serial functions are named similarly and implemented
similarly to the uart functions as follows:

usb_serial_handle_break <-> uart_handle_break
usb_serial_handle_sysrq_char <-> uart_handle_sysrq_char

715b1dc01f USB: usb_debug, usb_generic_serial: implement multi urb write
The usb_debug driver, when used as the console, will always fail to
insert the carriage return and new line sequence as well as randomly
drop console output.  This is a result of only having the single
write_urb and that the tty layer will have a lock that prevents the
processing of the back to back urb requests.

The solution is to allow more than one urb to be outstanding and have
a slightly deeper transmit queue.  The idea and some code is borrowed
from the ftdi_sio usb driver.

The generic usb serial driver was modified so as to allow the classic
method of 1 write urb, or a multi write urb scheme with N allowed
outstanding urbs where N is controlled by max_in_flight_urbs.  When
max_in_flight_urbs in a "struct usb_serial_driver" is non zero the
multi write urb scheme will be used.

The size of 4000 was selected for the usb_debug driver so that the
driver lowers possibility of losing the queued console messages during
the kernel startup.

74675a5850 NLS: update handling of Unicode
This patch (as1239) updates the kernel's treatment of Unicode.  The
character-set conversion routines are well behind the current state of
the Unicode specification: They don't recognize the existence of code
points beyond plane 0 or of surrogate pairs in the UTF-16 encoding.

The old wchar_t 16-bit type is retained because it's still used in
lots of places.  This shouldn't cause any new problems; if a
conversion now results in an invalid 16-bit code then before it must
have yielded an undefined code.

Difficult-to-read names like "utf_mbstowcs" are replaced with more
transparent names like "utf8s_to_utf16s" and the ordering of the
parameters is rationalized (buffer lengths come immediate after the
pointers they refer to, and the inputs precede the outputs).
Fortunately the low-level conversion routines are used in only a few
places; the interfaces to the higher-level uni2char and char2uni
methods have been left unchanged.

156f5a7801 debugfs: Fix terminology inconsistency of dir name to mount debugfs filesystem.
Many developers use "/debug/" or "/debugfs/" or "/sys/kernel/debug/"
directory name to mount debugfs filesystem for ftrace according to
./Documentation/tracers/ftrace.txt file.

And, three directory names(ex:/debug/, /debugfs/, /sys/kernel/debug/) is
existed in kernel source like ftrace, DRM, Wireless, Documentation,
Network[sky2]files to mount debugfs filesystem.

debugfs means debug filesystem for debugging easy to use by greg kroah
hartman. "/sys/kernel/debug/" name is suitable as directory name
of debugfs filesystem.
- debugfs related reference: http://lwn.net/Articles/334546/

4b9d0d3b81 eisa: remove driver_data direct access of struct device
In the near future, the driver core is going to not allow direct access
to the driver_data pointer in struct device.  Instead, the functions
dev_get_drvdata() and dev_set_drvdata() should be used.  These functions
have been around since the beginning, so are backwards compatible with
all older kernel versions.

3959214f97 sched: delayed cleanup of user_struct
During bootup performance tracing we see repeated occurrences of
/sys/kernel/uid/* events for the same uid, leading to a,
in this case, rather pointless userspace processing for the
same uid over and over.

This is usually caused by tools which change their uid to "nobody",
to run without privileges to read data supplied by untrusted users.

This change delays the execution of the (already existing) scheduled
work, to cleanup the uid after one second, so the allocated and announced
uid can possibly be re-used by another process.

This is the current behavior, where almost every invocation of a
binary, which changes the uid, creates two events:
  $ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
  for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \
  read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
  echo $(($END - $START))
  178

With the delayed cleanup, we get only two events, and userspace finishes
a bit faster too:
  $ read START < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
  for i in `seq 100`; do su --shell=/bin/true bin; done; \
  read END < /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum; \
  echo $(($END - $START))

d7002857de kmemcheck: add DMA hooks
This patch hooks into the DMA API to prevent the reporting of the
false positives that would otherwise be reported when memory is
accessed that is also used directly by devices.

2dff440525 kmemcheck: add mm functions
With kmemcheck enabled, the slab allocator needs to do this:

1. Tell kmemcheck to allocate the shadow memory which stores the status of
   each byte in the allocation proper, e.g. whether it is initialized or
   uninitialized.
2. Tell kmemcheck which parts of memory that should be marked uninitialized.
   There are actually a few more states, such as "not yet allocated" and
   "recently freed".

If a slab cache is set up using the SLAB_NOTRACK flag, it will never return
memory that can take page faults because of kmemcheck.

If a slab cache is NOT set up using the SLAB_NOTRACK flag, callers can still
request memory with the __GFP_NOTRACK flag. This does not prevent the page
faults from occuring, however, but marks the object in question as being
initialized so that no warnings will ever be produced for this object.

In addition to (and in contrast to) __GFP_NOTRACK, the
__GFP_NOTRACK_FALSE_POSITIVE flag indicates that the allocation should
not be tracked _because_ it would produce a false positive. Their values
are identical, but need not be so in the future (for example, we could now
enable/disable false positives with a config option).

Parts of this patch were contributed by Pekka Enberg but merged for
atomicity.

b110a8fb24 regulator/max1586: support increased V3 voltage range
The V3 regulator can be configured with an external resistor
connected to the feedback pin (R24 in the data sheet) to
increase the voltage range.

For example, hx4700 has R24 = 3.32 kOhm to achieve a maximum
V3 voltage of 1.55 V which is needed for 624 MHz CPU frequency.

0cbdf7bce5 LP3971 PMIC regulator driver (updated and combined version)
This patch adds regulator drivers for National Semiconductors LP3971 PMIC.
This LP3971 PMIC controller has 3 DC/DC voltage converters and 5 low
drop-out (LDO) regulators. LP3971 PMIC controller uses I2C interface.

1d98cccf7f regulator: add userspace-consumer driver
The userspace-consumer driver allows control of voltage and current
regulator state from userspace. This is required for fine-grained
power management of devices that are completely controller by userspace
applications, e.g. a GPS transciever connected to a serial port.

55f4fa4e33 Maxim 1586 regulator driver
The Maxim 1586 regulator is a voltage regulator with 2
voltage outputs, specially suitable for Marvell PXA
chips. One output is in the range of required VCC_CORE by
the PXA27x chips, the other in the VCC_USIM required as well
by PXA27x chips.

The chip is controlled through the I2C bus.

13685a1654 block: Add bio_list_peek()
Introduce bio_list_peek(), to obtain a pointer to the first bio on the bio_list
without actually removing it from the list. This is needed when you want to
serialize based on the list being empty or not.
