Merge tag 'regmap-3.4-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regmap

2012-04-07T16:56:00Z

Pull two more small regmap fixes from Mark Brown: - Now we have users for it that aren't running Android it turns out that regcache_sync_region() is much more useful to drivers if it's exported for use by modules. Who knew? - Make sure we don't divide by zero when doing debugfs dumps of rbtrees, not visible up until now because everything was providing at least some cache on startup. * tag 'regmap-3.4-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regmap: regmap: prevent division by zero in rbtree_show regmap: Export regcache_sync_region()

Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)

2012-04-05T22:30:34Z

Merge batch of fixes from Andrew Morton: "The simple_open() cleanup was held back while I wanted for laggards to merge things. I still need to send a few checkpoint/restore patches. I've been wobbly about merging them because I'm wobbly about the overall prospects for success of the project. But after speaking with Pavel at the LSF conference, it sounds like they're further toward completion than I feared - apparently davem is at the "has stopped complaining" stage regarding the net changes. So I need to go back and re-review those patchs and their (lengthy) discussion." * emailed from Andrew Morton : (16 patches) memcg swap: use mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap fix backlight: add driver for DA9052/53 PMIC v1 C6X: use set_current_blocked() and block_sigmask() MAINTAINERS: add entry for sparse checker MAINTAINERS: fix REMOTEPROC F: typo alpha: use set_current_blocked() and block_sigmask() simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open() scripts/coccinelle/api/simple_open.cocci: semantic patch for simple_open() libfs: add simple_open() hugetlbfs: remove unregister_filesystem() when initializing module drivers/rtc/rtc-88pm860x.c: fix rtc irq enable callback fs/xattr.c:setxattr(): improve handling of allocation failures fs/xattr.c:listxattr(): fall back to vmalloc() if kmalloc() failed fs/xattr.c: suppress page allocation failure warnings from sys_listxattr() sysrq: use SEND_SIG_FORCED instead of force_sig() proc: fix mount -t proc -o AAA

simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()

2012-04-05T22:25:50Z

Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire tree. Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we can replace all the users of this function with simple_open(). This replacement was done with the following semantic patch: @ open @ identifier open_f != simple_open; identifier i, f; @@ -int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f) -{ ( -if (i->i_private) -f->private_data = i->i_private; | -f->private_data = i->i_private; ) -return 0; -} @ has_open depends on open @ identifier fops; identifier open.open_f; @@ struct file_operations fops = { ... -.open = open_f, +.open = simple_open, ... }; [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman Cc: Al Viro Cc: Julia Lawall Acked-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

regmap: prevent division by zero in rbtree_show

2012-04-04T22:22:15Z

If there are no nodes in the cache, nodes will be 0, so calculating "registers / nodes" will cause division by zero. Signed-off-by: Stephen Warren Signed-off-by: Mark Brown Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

Pull more power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: - Patch series that hopefully fixes races between the freezer and request_firmware() and request_firmware_nowait() for good, with two cleanups from Stephen Boyd on top. - Runtime PM fix from Alan Stern preventing tasks from getting stuck indefinitely in the runtime PM wait queue. - Device PM QoS update from MyungJoo Ham introducing a new variant of pm_qos_update_request() allowing the callers to specify a timeout. * tag 'pm-for-3.4-part-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: PM / QoS: add pm_qos_update_request_timeout() API firmware_class: Move request_firmware_nowait() to workqueues firmware_class: Reorganize fw_create_instance() PM / Sleep: Mitigate race between the freezer and request_firmware() PM / Sleep: Move disabling of usermode helpers to the freezer PM / Hibernate: Disable usermode helpers right before freezing tasks firmware_class: Do not warn that system is not ready from async loads firmware_class: Split _request_firmware() into three functions, v2 firmware_class: Rework usermodehelper check PM / Runtime: don't forget to wake up waitqueue on failure

regmap: Export regcache_sync_region()

2012-04-03T12:08:53Z

regcache_sync_region() isn't going to be useful to most drivers if we don't export it since otherwise they can't use it when built modular. Signed-off-by: Mark Brown

regmap: rbtree: Fix register default look-up in sync

2012-04-01T10:47:13Z

The code currently passes the register offset in the current block to regcache_lookup_reg. This works fine as long as there is only one block and with base register of 0, but in all other cases it will look-up the default for a wrong register, which can cause unnecessary register writes. This patch fixes it by passing the actual register number to regcache_lookup_reg. Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen Signed-off-by: Mark Brown Cc:

firmware_class: Move request_firmware_nowait() to workqueues

2012-03-28T21:31:00Z

Oddly enough a work_struct was already part of the firmware_work structure but nobody was using it. Instead of creating a new kthread for each request_firmware_nowait() call just schedule the work on the system workqueue. This should avoid some overhead in forking new threads when they're not strictly necessary. Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

firmware_class: Reorganize fw_create_instance()

2012-03-28T21:30:43Z

Recent patches to split up the three phases of request_firmware() lead to a casting away of const in fw_create_instance(). We can avoid this cast by splitting up fw_create_instance() a bit. Make _request_firmware_setup() return a struct fw_priv and use that struct instead of passing struct firmware to _request_firmware(). Move the uevent and device file creation bits to the loading phase and rename the function to _request_firmware_load() to better reflect its purpose.
