      m68k: Disable Amiga serial console support if modular · d1a35e4d
      Geert Uytterhoeven authored 
      If CONFIG_AMIGA_BUILTIN_SERIAL=m, I get the following warnings:

| drivers/char/amiserial.c: At top level:
| drivers/char/amiserial.c:2138: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
| drivers/char/amiserial.c:2138: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of 'console_initcall'
| drivers/char/amiserial.c:2138: warning: parameter names (without types) in function declaration
| drivers/char/amiserial.c:2134: warning: 'amiserial_console_init' defined but not used

because console_initcall() is not defined (nor really sensible) in the
modular case.

So disable serial console support if the driver is modular.

      epoll: avoid double-inserts in case of EFAULT · 9ce209d6
      Davide Libenzi authored 
      In commit f337b9c5 ("epoll: drop
unnecessary test") Thomas found that there is an unnecessary (always
true) test in ep_send_events().  The callback never inserts into
->rdllink while the send loop is performed, and also does the
~EP_PRIVATE_BITS test.  Given we're holding the mutex during this time,
the conditions tested inside the loop are always true.

HOWEVER.

The test "!ep_is_linked(&epi->rdllink)" wasn't there because we insert
into ->rdllink, but because the send-events loop might terminate before
the whole list is scanned (-EFAULT).

In such cases, when the loop terminates early, and when a (leftover)
file received an event while we're performing the lockless loop, we need
such test to avoid to double insert the epoll items.  The list_splice()
done a few steps below, will correctly re-insert the ones that were left
on "txlist".

This should fix the kenrel.org bugzilla entry 11831.

      select: deal with math overflow from borderline valid userland data · 4d36a9e6
      Arjan van de Ven authored 
      Some userland apps seem to pass in a "0" for the seconds, and several
seconds worth of usecs to select().  The old kernels accepted this just
fine, so the new kernels must too.

However, due to the upscaling of the microseconds to nanoseconds we had
some cases where we got math overflow, and depending on the GCC version
(due to inlining decisions) that actually resulted in an -EINVAL return.

This patch fixes this by adding the excess microseconds to the seconds
field.

Also with thanks to Marcin Slusarz for spotting some implementation bugs
in the diagnostics patches.

      wireless: fix regression caused by regulatory config option · 44a504c4
      Arjan van de Ven authored 
      The default for the regulatory compatibility option is wrong;
if you picked the default you ended up with a non-functional wifi
system (at least I did on Fedora 9 with iwl4965).
I don't think even the October 2008 releases of the various distros
has the new userland so clearly the default is wrong, and also
we can't just go about deleting this in 2.6.29...

Change the default to "y" and also adjust the config text a little to
reflect this.

This patch fixes regression #11859

With thanks to Johannes Berg for the diagnostics
