Commit f44f7f96 ("RTC: Initialize kernel state from RTC") uncovered an issue in a number of RTC drivers, where the drivers call rtc_device_register before initializing the device or platform drvdata. This frequently results in null pointer dereferences when the rtc_device_register immediately makes use of the rtc device, calling rtc_read_alarm. The solution is to ensure the drvdata is initialized prior to registering the rtc device.

The SLUB allocator use of the cmpxchg_double logic was wrong: it actually needs the irq-safe one. That happens automatically when we use the native unlocked 'cmpxchg8b' instruction, but when compiling the kernel for older x86 CPUs that do not support that instruction, we fall back to the generic emulation code. And if you don't specify that you want the irq-safe version, the generic code ends up just open-coding the cmpxchg8b equivalent without any protection against interrupts or preemption. Which definitely doesn't work for SLUB. This was reported by Werner Landgraf <w.landgraf@ru.ru>, who saw instability with his distro-kernel that was compiled to support pretty much everything under the sun. Most big Linux distributions tend to compile for PPro and later, and would never have noticed this problem. This also fixes the prototypes for the irqsafe cmpxchg_double functions to use 'bool' like they should. [ Btw, that whole "generic code defaults to no protection" design just sounds stupid - if the code needs no protection, there is no reason to use "cmpxchg_double" to begin with. So we should probably just remove the unprotected version entirely as pointless. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reported-and-tested-by: werner <w.landgraf@ru.ru> Acked-and-tested-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LFD.2.02.1105041539050.3005@ionosSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This is the least-bad behaviour. It means that we signal the vblank event before it actually happens, but since we're disabling vblanks there's no guarantee that it will *ever* happen otherwise. This prevents GL applications which use WaitMSC from hanging indefinitely.

In particular, s_freeing_list needs to be initialized early, since it is used on some of the error paths when mounts fail. The mapping inode, for example, would be initialized and then free'd on an error path before s_freeing_list was initialized, but the inode drop operation needs the s_freeing_list to be set up. Normally you'd never see this, because not only is logfs fairly rare, but a successful mount will never have any issues.

This patch clears PORT_PLC if xhci_bus_resume() resumes a previous suspended port, because if a port transition from U3 to U0 state, it will report a port link state change, and software should clear the corresponding PLC bit. It also uses hcd->speed to check if a port is a USB2 protocol port. The patch fixes the issue that USB keyboard can not wakeup system from hibernation.
