3fa2cdcc45 ACPI: video: Ignore ACPI video devices that aren't present in hardware
Vendors often ship machines with a choice of integrated or discrete
graphics, and use the same DSDT for both. As a result, the ACPI video
module will locate devices that may not exist on this specific platform.

Attempt to determine whether the device exists or not, and abort the
device creation if it do not exist.

8a681a4dee ACPI: video: create "brightness_switch_enabled" modparam

nothing changes upon brightness switch events.

When "brightness_switch_enabled" is cleared via

ACPI will not try to change the brightness level any more.

df92e69599 ACPI: track opregion names to avoid driver resource conflicts.
Small ACPICA extension to be able to store the name of operation regions in osl.c later

In ACPI, AML can define accesses to IO ports and System Memory by Operation
Regions.  Those are not registered as done by PNPACPI using resource templates
(and _CRS/_SRS methods).

The IO ports and System Memory regions may get accessed by arbitrary AML code.
 When native drivers are accessing the same resources bad things can happen
(e.g.  a critical shutdown temperature of 3000 C every 2 months or so).

It is not really possible to register the operation regions via
request_resource, as they often overlap with pnp or other resources (e.g.
statically setup IO resources below 0x100).

This approach stores all Operation Region declarations (IO and System Memory
only) at ACPI table parse time.  It offers a similar functionality like
request_region and let drivers which are known to possibly use the same IO
ports and Memory which are also often used by ACPI (hwmon and i2c) check for
ACPI interference.

A boot parameter acpi_enforce_resources=strict/lax/no is provided, which
is default set to lax:
  - strict: let conflicting drivers fail to load with an error message
  - lax:    let conflicting driver work normal with a warning message
  - no:     no functional change at all
Depending on the feedback and the kind of interferences we see, this
should be set to strict at later time.

Goal of this patch set is:
  - Identify ACPI interferences in bug reports (very hard to reproduce
    and to identify)
  - Find BIOSes for that an ACPI driver should exist for specific HW
    instead of a native one.
  - stability in general

Provide acpi_check_{mem_}region.

Drivers can additionally check against possible ACPI interference by also
invoking this shortly before they call request_region.
If -EBUSY is returned, the driver must not load.
Use acpi_enforce_resources=strict/lax/no options to:
  - strict: let conflicting drivers fail to load with an error message
  - lax:    let conflicting driver work normal with a warning message
  - no:     no functional change at all

445a1d3e24 PNP: disable Supermicro H8DCE motherboard resources that overlap SATA BARs
Some Supermicro BIOSes describe a SATA PCI BAR as a motherboard resource.
The PNP system driver claims motherboard resources, and this prevents the
sata_nv driver from requesting it later.

This patch disables the PNP0C01/PNP0C02 resources so they won't be claimed
by the PNP system driver, so they'll available for sata_nv.

This fixes the bugs below, where sata_nv detects only two out of four SATA
drives.  The signature includes dmesg lines similar to these:

  pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefc000-0xdfefcfff has been reserved
  pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefd000-0xdfefd3ff has been reserved
  pnp: 00:09: iomem range 0xdfefe000-0xdfefe3ff has been reserved

  PCI: Unable to reserve mem region #6:1000@dfefd000 for device 0000:80:07.0
  sata_nv: probe of 0000:80:07.0 failed with error -16
  PCI: Unable to reserve mem region #6:1000@dfefe000 for device 0000:80:08.0
  sata_nv: probe of 0000:80:08.0 failed with error -16

5d38998ed1 PNP: do not test PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANGE on suspend/resume
The PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANGE flag is meant to signify that the PNP core
should not change resources for the device -- not that it shouldn't
disable/enable the device on suspend/resume.

ALSA ISAPnP drivers set PNP_DRIVER_RES_DO_NOT_CHANAGE (0x0001) through
setting PNP_DRIVER_RES_DISABLE (0x0003).  The latter including the former
may in itself be considered rather unexpected but doesn't change that
suspend/resume wouldn't seem to have any business testing the flag.

As reported by Ondrej Zary for snd-cs4236, ALSA driven ISAPnP cards don't
survive swsusp hibernation with the resume skipping setting the resources
due to testing the flag -- the same test in the suspend path isn't enough
to keep hibernation from disabling the card it seems.

These tests were added (in 2005) by Piere Ossman in commit
68094e3251, "alsa: Improved PnP suspend
support" who doesn't remember why.  This deletes them.

2bb9a6b32f pnp: declare PNP option parsing functions as __init
There are three kind of parse functions provided by PNP acpi/bios:
 - get current resources
 - set resources
 - get possible resources
The first two may be needed later at runtime.
The possible resource settings should never change dynamically.
And even if this would make any sense (I doubt it), the current implementation
only parses possible resource settings at early init time:
  -> declare all the option parsing __init

Previously they returned:

    1:	we just activated (or disabled) device
    <0:	-EBUSY or error from pnp_start_dev() (or pnp_stop_dev())

Now we return only 0 (device is active or disabled) or <0 (error).

All in-tree callers either ignore the return values or check only for
errors (negative values).

6ed3003c19 md: fix an occasional deadlock in raid5
raid5's 'make_request' function calls generic_make_request on underlying
devices and if we run out of stripe heads, it could end up waiting for one of
those requests to complete.  This is bad as recursive calls to
generic_make_request go on a queue and are not even attempted until
make_request completes.

So: don't make any generic_make_request calls in raid5 make_request until all
waiting has been done.  We do this by simply setting STRIPE_HANDLE instead of
calling handle_stripe().

If we need more stripe_heads, raid5d will get called to process the pending
stripe_heads which will call generic_make_request from a

This change by itself causes a performance hit.  So add a change so that
raid5_activate_delayed is only called at unplug time, never in raid5.  This
seems to bring back the performance numbers.  Calling it in raid5d was
sometimes too soon...

  How about we queue it for 2.6.25-rc1 and then about when -rc2 comes out,
  we queue it for 2.6.24.y?

d089c6af10 md: change ITERATE_RDEV to rdev_for_each
As this is more in line with common practice in the kernel.  Also swap the
args around to be more like list_for_each.
