nbd: do not allow two clients at the same time

2009-02-12T17:50:38Z

commit c91192d66d6cea7878b8542c9d9f1873971aba92 upstream. Two nbd-clients at same time are bad idea, and cause WARN_ON from nbd in 2.6.28-rc7 from sysfs_add_one. This simply prevents that from happening. To reproduce: cat /dev/zero | head -c 10000000 > /tmp/delme.fstest.fs nbd-server 9100 -l /anyone.can.connect > /tmp/delme.fstest.fs & sleep 1 nbd-client localhost 9100 /dev/nd0 & nbd-client localhost 9100 /dev/nd0 & Signed-off-by: Pavel Machek Acked-by: Paul Clements Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

commit 6b40c0057a7935bcf63a38a924094c7e61d4731f upstream. Revert 8b6346ec899713a90890c9e832f7eff91ea73504 as these devices really work just fine with the cdc-acm driver, as they follow the spec properly.

ipw2200: fix scanning while associated

2009-02-12T17:50:36Z

commit 14a4dfe2ff8c353f59ae8324059ded1cfe22c7d9 upstream. This patch fixes sporadic firmware restarts when scanning while associated. The firmware will quietly cancel a scan (while associated) if the dwell time for a channel to be scanned is larger than the time it may stay away from the operating channel (because of DTIM catching). Unfortunately the driver is not notified about the canceled scan and therefore the scan watchdog timeout will be hit and the driver causes a firmware restart which results in disassociation. This mainly happens on passive channels which use a dwell time of 120 whereas a typical beacon interval is around 100. The patch changes the dwell time for passive channels to be slightly smaller than the actual beacon interval to work around the firmware issue. Furthermore the number of allowed beacon misses is increased from one to three as otherwise most scans (while associated) won't complete successfully. However scanning while associated will still fail in corner cases such as a beacon intervals below 30. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ACPI: video: Fix reversed brightness behavior on ThinkPad SL series

2009-02-12T17:50:36Z

commit 935e5f290ec1eb0f1c15004421f5fd3154380fd5 upstream. Section B.6.2 of ACPI 3.0b specification that defines _BCL method doesn't require the brightness levels returned to be sorted. At least ThinkPad SL300 (and probably all IdeaPads) returns the array reversed (i.e. bightest levels have lowest indexes), which causes the brightness management behave in completely reversed manner on these machines (brightness increases when the laptop is idle, while the display dims when used). Sorting the array by brightness level values after reading the list fixes the issue. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12037 Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui Tested-by: Lubomir Rintel Signed-off-by: Len Brown Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
