commit 9bed77ee2fb46b74782d0d9d14b92e9d07f3df6e upstream.
This device is not using the proper demod IF. Instead of using the
IF macro, it is specifying a IF frequency. This doesn't work, as xc3028
needs to load an specific SCODE for the tuner. In this case, there's
no IF table for 5 MHz.

commit d59a7b1dbce8b972ec2dc9fcaaae0bfa23687423 upstream.
If the bus has been reset on resume, set the alternate setting to 0.
This should be the default value, but some devices crash or otherwise
misbehave if they don't receive a SET_INTERFACE request before any other
video control request.
Microdia's 0c45:6437 camera has been found to require this change or it
will stop sending video data after resume.

commit 50e9efd60b213ce43ad6979bfc18e25eec2d8413 upstream.
The tuner-core subdev requires that the type field of v4l2_tuner is
filled in correctly. This is done in v4l2-ioctl.c, but pvrusb2 doesn't
use that yet, so we have to do it manually based on whether the current
input is radio or not.
Tested with my pvrusb2.

commit 227690df75382e46a4f6ea1bbc5df855a674b47f upstream.
The subdevs are supposed to receive a valid tuner type for the g_frequency
and g/s_tuner subdev ops. Some drivers do this, others don't. So prefill
this in v4l2-ioctl.c based on whether the device node from which this is
called is a radio node or not.
The spec does not require applications to fill in the type, and if they
leave it at 0 then the 'check_mode' call in tuner-core.c will return
an error and the ioctl does nothing.

commit 8ca2c80b170c47eeb55f0c2a0f2b8edf85f35d49 upstream.
When freeing memory for the video buffers also remove them from the
irq & main queues.
This fixes an oops when doing the following:
open ("/dev/video", ..)
VIDIOC_REQBUFS
VIDIOC_QBUF
VIDIOC_REQBUFS
close ()
As the second VIDIOC_REQBUFS will cause the list entries of the buffers
to be cleared while they still hang around on the main and irc queues

commit 38a66824d96de8aeeb915e6f46f0d3fe55828eb1 upstream.
The scheme used to index format in uvc_fixup_video_ctrl() is not robust:
format index is based on descriptor ordering, which does not necessarily
match bFormatIndex ordering. Searching for first matching format will
prevent uvc_fixup_video_ctrl() from using the wrong format/frame to make
adjustments.

commit 3e645d6b485446c54c6745c5e2cf5c528fe4deec upstream.
The compat code for the VIDIOCSMICROCODE ioctl is totally buggered.
It's only used by the VIDEO_STRADIS driver, and that one is scheduled to
staging and eventually removed unless somebody steps up to maintain it
(at which point it should use request_firmware() rather than some magic
ioctl). So we'll get rid of it eventually.
But in the meantime, the compatibility ioctl code is broken, and this
tries to get it to at least limp along (even if Mauro suggested just
deleting it entirely, which may be the right thing to do - I don't think
the compatibility translation code has ever worked unless you were very
lucky).

commit 806b07c29b711aaf90c81d2a19711607769f8246 upstream.
IR support on FusionHDTV cards is broken since kernel 2.6.31. One side
effect of the switch to the standard binding model for IR I2C devices
was to let i2c-core do the probing instead of the ir-kbd-i2c driver.
There is a slight difference between the two probe methods: i2c-core
uses 0-byte writes, while the ir-kbd-i2c was using 0-byte reads. As
some IR I2C devices only support reads, the new probe method fails to
detect them.
For now, revert to letting the driver do the probe, using 0-byte
reads. In the future, i2c-core will be extended to let callers of
i2c_new_probed_device() provide a custom probing function.

UHCI controllers
commit 70136081fc67ea77d849f86fa323e5773c8e40ea upstream.
If you read the mail to Oliver Neukum on the linux-usb list, then you know
that I found a cure for the mysterious problem that the MR97310a CIF "type
1" cameras have been freezing up and refusing to stream if hooked up to a
machine with a UHCI controller.
Namely, the cure is that if the camera is an mr97310a CIF type 1 camera, you
have to send it 0xa0, 0x00. Somehow, this is a timing reset command, or
such. It un-blocks whatever was previously stopping the CIF type 1 cameras
from working on the UHCI-based machines.

commit 2434466432464110b5307757e0285dd41f15512e upstream.
Move I2C IR initialization from just after I2C bus setup to right
before non-I2C IR initialization. This avoids the case where an I2C IR
device is blocking audio support (at least the PV951 suffers from
this). It is also more logical to group IR support together,
regardless of the connectivity.

constant => sizeof conversion.
commit 53f68607caba85db9a73846ccd289e4b7fa96295 upstream.
Regression was caused by my commit 6b35ca0d3d586b8ecb8396821af21186e20afaf0
which determined message size using sizeof rather than hardcoded constants.
Unfortunately pwc_set_shutter_speed reuses a 2 byte buffer for a one byte
message too so the sizeof was bogus in this case.
All other uses of sizeof checked and are ok.

waiting processes

simply doesn't work when the application is doing things in an
asynchronous manner. If the application went to the trouble to queue
the buffer in the first place, then the driver should always attempt
to complete it - even if the application at that moment has its
attention turned elsewhere. Applications which always blocked waiting
for I/O on the capture device would not have been affected by this.
Applications which *mostly* blocked waiting for I/O on the capture
device probably only would have been somewhat affected (frame lossage,
at a rate which goes up as the application blocks less). Applications
which never blocked on the capture device (e.g. polling only) however
would never have been able to receive any video frames, since in that
case this "is anyone waiting on this?" check on the buffer never would
have evalutated true. This patch just deletes that harmful check
against the buffer's wait queue.

Because the counters were not reset when starting up streaming, they would
be reused from the previous run. This can result in cases such that when the
second instance of streaming starts up, the "cnt" variable in
em28xx_audio_isocirq() can end up being negative, resulting in attempting to
write to memory before the start of runtime->dma_area (as well as having a
negative number of bytes to copy).

The bttv driver function which handles switching of the video standard
(set_tvnorm() in bttv-driver.c) includes a check which can optionally
also reset the cropping configuration to a default value. It is
"optional" based on a comparison of the cropcap parameters of the
previous vs the newly requested video standard. The comparison is
being done with a memcmp(), a function which only returns a true value
if the comparison actually fails.
This if-statement appears to have been written to assume wrong
memcmp() semantics. That is, it was re-initializing the cropping
configuration only if the new video standard did NOT have different
cropcap values. That doesn't make any sense. One definitely should
reset things if the cropcap parameters are different - if there's any
comparison to made at all.
The effect of this problem was that a transition from, say, PAL to
NTSC would leave in place old cropping setup that made sense for the
PAL geometry but not for NTSC. If the application doesn't care about
cropping it also won't try to reset the cropping configuration,
resulting in an improperly cropped video frame. In the case I was
testing this actually caused black video frames to be displayed.
Another interesting effect of this bug is that if one does something
which does NOT change the video standard and this function is run,
then the cropping setup gets reset anyway - again because of the
backwards comparison. It turns out that just running anything which
merely opens and closes the video device node (e.g. v4l-info) will
cause this to happen. One can argue that simply opening the device
node and not doing anything to it should not mess with any of its
state - but because of this behavior, any TV app which does such
things (e.g. xawtv) probably therefore doesn't see the problem.
The solution is to fix the sense of the if-statement. It's easy to
see how this mistake could have been made given how memcmp() works.
The patch is therefore removal of a single "!" character from the
if-statement in set_tvnorm in bttv-driver.c.
