      pc110 touchpad driver: be more polite · f5b62be0
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      The PC110 touchpad driver used to just assume that the hardware
exists, even though in fact the hw is extremely rare indeed, and
just requesting all the resources might stomp on some _other_
hardware.

Try to minimize the damage by realizing that the touchpad hw only
exists on old ISA-only hardware, and if we have found a PCI device,
we should not try to load the touchpad driver.

Verified to fix things for Andries Brouwer.

      aio: remove incorrect initialization of "nr_pages" · 3e45a109
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      We should not claim to have filled in the ring_pages[] array
until we actually _do_ fill it in. It will confuse the code
that frees the structure if we claim there are pages there
that don't exist.

Noted by Darrick Wong.

      Do EFI partitions only on ia64. · 43c261b9
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Yes, they might be useful somewhere else too, but the EFI
discovery code is so fragile that it's not worth the bother.

EFI people informed.

      [PATCH] make cdu31a work on at least one system · 41e0feb7
      Ondrej Zary authored 
      I've got a Sony CDU33A drive with COR334 controller.  The Linux cdu31a
driver was not updated for 2.6 kernel so it does not work.

Here are patches that try to make the driver working with 2.6
kernel:
  - fix the timeout values in header file
  - Make the driver work in 2.6.X
  - Added workaround to fix hard lockups on eject
  - Fixed door locking problem after mounting empty drive
  - Set double-speed drives to double speed by default
  - Removed all readahead things - not needed anymore

It does work on my system. I also know that it's still broken - it uses 
cli(), MODULE_PARM and it's also not very fast (I _never_ reached full
300KB/s with it, but I know that it's possible in Windows) and probably 
many other things (I'm new to Linux kernel) - so I'm waiting for comments.

      [ide] siimage: fix the various SI3112 hangs · db01db10
      Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz authored 
      From: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>
(some changes by me - bart)

The current driver looks at fields before it is safe to, we move the
mod15rm bug handler to be a fixup and this ensures the probe has been
completed before we use the ident data.

      [ide] apply undecoded slave fixup only for ide-cs · dc3f1bf7
      Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz authored 
      From: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>
(some changes by me - bart)

We add probe_hwif_init_with_fixup (seperate naming as requested by
Bartlomiej). This runs a fixup on present interfaces before attaching
the drives. In order to be useful we need also an _with_fixup version
of ide_register_hw function. 

The sometimes troublesome undecoded slave detector is moved to its own
function and exported so that ide-cs and the upcoming delkin_cb can both
use it (along with any arch specific cf/pcmcia drivers I don't know
about). The non-relevant checks for this scenario are removed.
