46a965462a Input: keyboard - fix braille keyboard keysym generation
Keysyms stored in key_map[] are not simply K() values, but U(K()) values,
as can be seen in the KDSKBENT ioctl handler.  The kernel-generated
braille keysyms thus need a U() call too.

28c1969ff8 ide: fix ioctl to pass requested transfer mode to ide_find_dma_mode instead of UDMA6
Currently, ide_cmd_ioctl when invoked for setting DMA transfer mode calls
ide_find_dma_mode with requested mode as XFER_UDMA_6. This prevents setting DMA
mode to any other value than the default (maximum) supported by the device (or
UDMA6, if supported) irrespective of the actual requested transfer mode and
returns error.

For example, setting mode to UDMA2 using hdparm, where UDMA4 is the default
transfer mode gives following error:
	# ./hdparm -d1 -Xudma2  /dev/hda
	 /dev/hda:hda: UDMA/66 mode selected
	 setting using_dma to 1 (on)
	 hda: UDMA/66 mode selected
	 setting xfermode to 66 (UltraDMA mode2)
	 HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(setxfermode) failed: Invalid argument
	 using_dma     =  1 (on)

This patch fixes the issue.

275014ae46 thinkpad-acpi: fix detection of old ThinkPads
There is a problem in the quirk tables used by tpacpi_is_fw_known() and
tpacpi_check_outdated_fw(), which causes outdated BIOSes that are lacking
the EC firmware ID DMI field to never match.

This breaks module loading on, e.g.  a T23 with outdated BIOS, and the
module will refuse to load unless the "force_load=1" parameter is given.

Fix the quirk tables so that they can also match the outdated BIOSes,
which in turn will both fix the module loading, and also warn the user
that he is using outdated firmware and should upgrade.

This fixes a serious regression, introduced by commit
e675abafcc, "thinkpad-acpi: be more strict
when detecting a ThinkPad".

cea6234395 [CIFS] Duplicate data on appending to some Samba servers
SMB writes are sent with a starting offset and length. When the server
supports the newer SMB trans2 posix open (rather than using the SMB
NTCreateX) a file can be opened with SMB_O_APPEND flag, and for that
case Samba server assumes that the offset sent in SMBWriteX is unneeded
since the write should go to the end of the file - which can cause
problems if the write was cached (since the beginning part of a
page could be written twice by the client mm).  Jeff suggested that
masking the flag on posix open on the client is easiest for the time
being. Note that recent Samba server also had an unrelated problem with
SMB NTCreateX and append (see samba bugzilla bug number 6898) which
should not affect current Linux clients (unless cifs Unix Extensions
are disabled).

The cifs client did not send the O_APPEND flag on posix open
before 2.6.29 so the fix is unneeded on early kernels.

In the future, for the non-cached case (O_DIRECT, and forcedirectio mounts)
it would be possible and useful to send O_APPEND on posix open (for Windows
case: FILE_APPEND_DATA but not FILE_WRITE_DATA on SMB NTCreateX) but for
cached writes although the vfs sets the offset to end of file it
may fragment a write across pages - so we can't send O_APPEND on
open (could result in sending part of a page twice).

d77b819745 [CPUFREQ] Enable ACPI PDC handshake for VIA/Centaur CPUs
In commit 0de51088e6, we introduced the
use of acpi-cpufreq on VIA/Centaur CPU's by removing a vendor check for
VENDOR_INTEL.  However, as it turns out, at least the Nano CPU's also
need the PDC (processor driver capabilities) handshake in order to
activate the methods required for acpi-cpufreq.

Since arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc() contains another vendor check for
Intel, the PDC is not initialized on VIA CPU's.  The resulting behavior
of a current mainline kernel on such systems is:  acpi-cpufreq
loads and it indicates CPU frequency changes.  However, the CPU stays at
a single frequency

This trivial patch ensures that init_intel_pdc() is called on Intel and
VIA/Centaur CPU's alike.

b3a222e52e remove CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES compile option
As far as I know, all distros currently ship kernels with default
CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y.  Since having the option on
leaves a 'no_file_caps' option to boot without file capabilities,
the main reason to keep the option is that turning it off saves
you (on my s390x partition) 5k.  In particular, vmlinux sizes
came to:

without patch fscaps=n:		 	53598392
without patch fscaps=y:		 	53603406
with this patch applied:		53603342

with the security-next tree.

Against this we must weigh the fact that there is no simple way for
userspace to figure out whether file capabilities are supported,
while things like per-process securebits, capability bounding
sets, and adding bits to pI if CAP_SETPCAP is in pE are not supported
with SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=n, leaving a bit of a problem for
applications wanting to know whether they can use them and/or why
something failed.

It also adds another subtly different set of semantics which we must
maintain at the risk of severe security regressions.

So this patch removes the SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES compile
option.  It drops the kernel size by about 50k over the stock
SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES=y kernel, by removing the
cap_limit_ptraced_target() function.

Changelog:
	Nov 20: remove cap_limit_ptraced_target() as it's logic

0bce952799 SELinux: print denials for buggy kernel with unknown perms
Historically we've seen cases where permissions are requested for classes
where they do not exist.  In particular we have seen CIFS forget to set
i_mode to indicate it is a directory so when we later check something like
remove_name we have problems since it wasn't defined in tclass file.  This
used to result in a avc which included the permission 0x2000 or something.
Currently the kernel will deny the operations (good thing) but will not
print ANY information (bad thing).  First the auditdeny field is no
extended to include unknown permissions.  After that is fixed the logic in
avc_dump_query to output this information isn't right since it will remove
the permission from the av and print the phrase "<NULL>".  This takes us
back to the behavior before the classmap rewrite.

7064fef563 drm: work around EDIDs with bad htotal/vtotal values
We did this on the userspace side, but we need a similar fix for the
kernel.

Fixes LP #460664.

0ebf17174b drm/radeon/kms: resume AGP by calling init.
AGP resume was broken since we moved to the new init path,
because we never re-enabled AGP on these systems at resume time.

This patch just calls the AGP resume call which just does the reinit
at resume time like the old path did.

Since AGP is pretty much gpu independant I did it outside
the gpu specific code.

bffbc94a4d sparc64: Fix definition of VMEMMAP_SIZE.
This was the cause of various boot failures on V480, V880, etc.
systems.

Kernel image memory was being overwritten because the vmemmap[]
array was being sized to small.  So if you had physical memory
addresses past a certain point, the early bootup would spam
all over variables in the kernel data section.

The vmemmap mappings map page structs, not page struct pointers.
And that was the key thinko in the macro definition.

This was fixable thanks to the help, reports, and tireless patience
of Hermann Lauer.

c4a5af54c8 Silence the existing API for capability version compatibility check.
When libcap, or other libraries attempt to confirm/determine the supported
capability version magic, they generally supply a NULL dataptr to capget().

In this case, while returning the supported/preferred magic (via a
modified header content), the return code of this system call may be 0,
-EINVAL, or -EFAULT.

No libcap code depends on the previous -EINVAL etc. return code, and
all of the above three return codes can accompany a valid (successful)
attempt to determine the requested magic value.

This patch cleans up the system call to return 0, if the call is
successfully being used to determine the supported/preferred capability
magic value.
