staging: android/ram_console: Don't build on arches w/o ioremap

2012-02-08T22:14:15Z

This patch fixes UML build: CC drivers/staging/android/ram_console.o drivers/staging/android/ram_console.c: In function 'ram_console_driver_probe': drivers/staging/android/ram_console.c:358:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'ioremap' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] cc1: some warnings being treated as errors make[3]: *** [drivers/staging/android/ram_console.o] Error 1 Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: r8712u: Use asynchronous firmware loading

2012-02-08T22:14:15Z

In https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27996, failure of driver r8712u is reported, with a timeout during module loading due to synchronous loading of the firmware. The code now uses request_firmware_nowait(). Signed-off-by: Larry Finger Cc: stable Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: usbip: fix to prevent potentially using uninitialized spinlock

2012-02-08T22:14:15Z

The stub_probe function can be called as soon as the stub_driver is registered. This can lead to the busid_table_lock being used before it is initialized. Moved calling the init_busid_table function (which initalizes this spinlock) to be called earlier in the init function to prevent this from happening.

staging: r8712u: Fix problem when CONFIG_R8712_AP is set

2012-02-08T22:14:15Z

When this driver was upgraded to the vendor 20100831 version in commit 93c55dda092c7 et al,, one listhead initialization was missed. This broke complete operation of the driver whenever AP mode was enabled. This patch fixes https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27996.

staging: tidspbridge: fix incorrect free to drv_datap

2012-02-08T22:14:14Z

This structure is still used after it has been freed, since it is being allocated in probe, calls to free it have been moved to module's remove routine. This should fix the follwoing messages when attempting to remove the module: drv_get_first_dev_extension: Failed to retrieve the object handle drv_get_first_dev_extension: Failed to retrieve the object handle drv_destroy: Failed to store DRV object mgr_destroy: Failed to store MGR object Signed-off-by: Omar Ramirez Luna Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: tidspbridge: fix bridge_open memory leaks

2012-02-08T22:14:14Z

There are two members of pr_ctxt allocated during bridge_open that are never freed resulting in memory leaks, these are stream_id and node_id, they are now freed on release of the handle (bridge_release) right before freeing pr_ctxt. Error path for bridge_open was also fixed since the same variables could result in memory leaking due to missing handling of failure scenarios. While at it, the indentation changes were introduced to avoid interleaved goto statements inside big if blocks. Signed-off-by: Omar Ramirez Luna Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: android: lowmemorykiller: Don't wait more than one second for a process to die

2012-02-08T22:14:14Z

If a process forked and the child process was killed by the lowmemorykiller, the lowmemory killer would be disabled until the parent process reaped the child or it died itself. Signed-off-by: Arve Hjønnevåg Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: zcache: fix serialization bug in zv stats

2012-02-08T22:14:14Z

In a multithreaded workload, the zv_curr_dist_counts and zv_cumul_dist_counts statistics are being corrupted because the increments and decrements in zv_create and zv_free are not atomic. This patch converts these statistics and their corresponding increments/decrements/reads to atomic operations.

staging: fix go7007-usb license

2012-02-08T22:14:14Z
