On 64 bit systems the agp_info struct has a 4 byte hole between
->agp_mode and ->aper_base. We need to clear it to avoid disclosing
stack information to userspace.

Under "heavy" RX load, the driver cannot handle the descriptors fast
enough. In detail, when a descriptor is consumed, its used flag is
cleared and once the RX budget is consumed all descriptors with a
cleared used flag are prepared to receive more data. Under load though,
the HW may constantly receive more data and use those descriptors with a
cleared used flag before they are actually prepared for next usage.
The head and tail pointers into the RX-ring should always be valid and
we can omit clearing and checking of the used flag.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates
This series contains updates to e1000e only.
David provides four fixes for e1000e, first is a workaround for a hardware
erratum on 82579 devices which experienced packet loss in gigabit and 100
speeds when interconnect between the PHY and MAC is exiting K1 power saving
state. Second expands the scope of a workaround to include i217 and i218
parts as well to address over aggressive transmit behavior when connecting
at 10Mbs half-duplex. Next is to resolve a reported link flap issue on
82579 parts which was root caused as an interoperability problem between
82579 and at least some Broadcom PHYs in the Energy Efficient Ethernet wake
mechanism. Lastly, restricts the workaround of putting the PHY into MDIO
slow mode to access the PHY id to relevant parts since this issue has been
fixed on the newer hardware.

It has been determined that the workaround of putting the PHY into MDIO
slow mode to access the PHY id is not necessary with Lynx Point and newer
parts. The issue that necessitated the workaround has been fixed on the
newer hardware.
We will maintains, as a last ditch attempt, the conversion to MDIO Slow
Mode in the failure branch when attempting to access the PHY id so as to
cover all contingencies.

Several customers have reported a link flap issue on 82579. The symptoms
are random and intermittent link losses when 82579 is connected to specific
link partners. Issue has been root caused as interoperability problem
between 82579 and at least some Broadcom PHYs in the Energy Efficient
Ethernet wake mechanism.
To fix the issue, we are disabling the Phase Locked Loop shutdown in 100M
Low Power Idle. This solution will cause an increase of power in 100M EEE
link. It will cost additional 28mW in this specific mode.

This is a workaround for a HW erratum on 82579 devices.
Erratum is #23 in Intel 6 Series Chipset and Intel C200 Series Chipset
specification Update June 2013.
Problem: 82579 parts experience packet loss in Gig and 100 speeds
when interconnect between PHY and MAC is exiting K1 power saving state.
This was previously believed to only affect 1Gig speed, but has been observed
at 100Mbs also.
Workaround: Disable K1 for 82579 devices at Gig and 100 speeds.

When running in SRIOV mode, VM that is assigned with a non-provisioned
Ethernet VFs get themselves a random mac when the Eth driver starts. In
this case, if the IB driver startup code that deals with RoCE runs first,
it will use a zero mac as the source mac for the Para-Virtual CM MADs
which is buggy. To handle that, we change the order of loading.

The code that deals with computing the slave id based on a given GID
gave wrong results when the number of single port VFs wasn't the
same for port 1 vs. port 2 and the relevant VF is single ported on

Commit 4d619f625a60 ("net: cdc_ncm: no point in filling up the NTBs
if we send ZLPs") changed the padding logic for devices with the ZLP
flag set. This meant that frames of any size will be sent without
additional padding, except for the single byte added if the size is
a multiple of the USB packet size. But if the unpadded size is
identical to the maximum frame size, and the maximum size is a
multiplum of the USB packet size, then this one-byte padding will
overflow the buffer.
Prevent padding if already at maximum frame size, letting usbnet
transmit a ZLP instead in this case.

Following arm64 commit bc3ee18a7a57 (arm64: init: Move of_clk_init to
time_init()), vexpress_osc_of_setup() is called via of_clk_init() long

requires the vespress sysregs to be already initialised, so this patch
adds an explicit call to vexpress_sysreg_of_early_init() in vexpress

Commit 6a20dbd6caa2358716136144bf524331d70b1e03,
"tty: Fix race condition between __tty_buffer_request_room and flush_to_ldisc"
correctly identifies an unsafe race condition between
__tty_buffer_request_room() and flush_to_ldisc(), where the consumer
flush_to_ldisc() prematurely advances the head before consuming the
last of the data committed. For example:
CPU 0 | CPU 1
__tty_buffer_request_room | flush_to_ldisc
... | ...
| count = head->commit - head->read
n = tty_buffer_alloc() |
b->commit = b->used |
b->next = n |
| if (!count) /* T */
| if (head->next == NULL) /* F */
| buf->head = head->next
In this case, buf->head has been advanced but head->commit may have
been updated with a new value.
Instead of reintroducing an unnecessary lock, fix the race locklessly.
Read the commit-next pair in the reverse order of writing, which guarantees
the commit value read is the latest value written if the head is
advancing.

The tty atomic_write_lock does not provide an exclusion guarantee for
the tty driver if the termios settings are LECHO & !OPOST. And since
it is unexpected and not allowed to call TTY buffer helpers like

concurrect writers call pty_write. In that case the following two

* the ECHOing from a workqueue and
* pty_write from the process
race and can overflow the corresponding TTY buffer like follows.
If we look into tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag, there is:
int space = __tty_buffer_request_room(port, goal, flags);
struct tty_buffer *tb = port->buf.tail;
...
memcpy(char_buf_ptr(tb, tb->used), chars, space);
...
tb->used += space;
so the race of the two can result in something like this:
A B
__tty_buffer_request_room
__tty_buffer_request_room
memcpy(buf(tb->used), ...)
tb->used += space;
memcpy(buf(tb->used), ...) ->BOOM
B's memcpy is past the tty_buffer due to the previous A's tb->used
increment.
Since the N_TTY line discipline input processing can output
concurrently with a tty write, obtain the N_TTY ldisc output_lock to
serialize echo output with normal tty writes. This ensures the tty
buffer helper tty_insert_flip_string is not called concurrently and
everything is fine.
Note that this is nicely reproducible by an ordinary user using
forkpty and some setup around that (raw termios + ECHO). And it is
present in kernels at least after commit
d945cb9cce20ac7143c2de8d88b187f62db99bdc (pty: Rework the pty layer to
use the normal buffering logic) in 2.6.31-rc3.

The sleep function was updated to put the serial port to sleep only when necessary.
This appears to resolve the errant behavior of the driver as described in

Per reference manuals of Freescale P1020 and P2020 SoCs, USB controller
present in these SoCs has bit 17 of USBx_CONTROL register marked as
Reserved - there is no PHY_CLK_VALID bit there.
Testing for this bit in ehci_fsl_setup_phy() behaves differently on two
P1020RDB boards available here - on one board test passes and fsl-usb
init succeeds, but on other board test fails, causing fsl-usb init to
fail.
This patch changes ehci_fsl_setup_phy() not to test PHY_CLK_VALID on
controller version 1.6 that (per manual) does not have this bit.

Even if the USB-to-ATAPI converter supported multiple LUNs, this

it doesn't use srb->device->lun in any way.

Some OHCI controllers from ATI/AMD seem to have difficulty with
"global" USB suspend, that is, suspending an entire USB bus without
setting the suspend feature for each port connected to a device. When
we try to resume the child devices, the controller gives timeout
errors on the unsuspended ports, requiring resets, and can even cause
ohci-hcd to hang; see
http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=139514332820398&w=2
and the following messages.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a new quirk flag to ohci-hcd.
The flag causes the ohci_rh_suspend() routine to suspend each
unsuspended, enabled port before suspending the root hub. This
effectively converts the "global" suspend to an ordinary root-hub
suspend. There is no need to unsuspend these ports when the root hub
is resumed, because the child devices will be resumed anyway in the
course of a normal system resume ("global" suspend is never used for
runtime PM).
This patch should be applied to all stable kernels which include
commit 0aa2832dd0d9 (USB: use "global suspend" for system sleep on
USB-2 buses) or a backported version thereof.

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"This udpate delivers:
- A fix for dynamic interrupt allocation on x86 which is required to
exclude the GSI interrupts from the dynamic allocatable range.
This was detected with the newfangled tablet SoCs which have GPIOs
and therefor allocate a range of interrupts. The MSI allocations
already excluded the GSI range, so we never noticed before.
- The last missing set_irq_affinity() repair, which was delayed due
to testing issues
- A few bug fixes for the armada SoC interrupt controller
- A memory allocation fix for the TI crossbar interrupt controller

Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"A bunch of regression fixes this time. They fix two regressions in
the PNP subsystem, one in the ACPI processor driver and one in the
ACPI EC driver, four cpufreq driver regressions and an unrelated bug
in one of the drivers. The regressions are recent or introduced in
3.14.
Specifics:
- There are two bugs in the ACPI PNP core that cause errors to be
returned if optional ACPI methods are not present. After an ACPI
core change made in 3.14 one of those errors leads to serial port
suspend failures on some systems. Fix from Rafael J Wysocki.
- A recently added PNP quirk related to Intel chipsets intorduced a
build error in unusual configurations (PNP without PCI). Fix from
Bjorn Helgaas.
- An ACPI EC workaround related to system suspend on Samsung machines
added in 3.14 introduced a race causing some valid EC events to be
discarded. Fix from Kieran Clancy.
- The acpi-cpufreq driver fails to load on some systems after a 3.14
commit related to APIC ID parsing that overlooked one corner case.
Fix from Lan Tianyu.
- Fix for a recently introduced build problem in the ppc-corenet
cpufreq driver from Tim Gardner.
- A recent cpufreq core change to ensure serialization of frequency
transitions for drivers with a ->target_index() callback overlooked
the fact that some of those drivers had been doing operations
introduced by it into the core already by themselves. That
resulted in a mess in which the core and the drivers try to do the
same thing and block each other which leads to deadlocks. Fixes
for the powernow-k7, powernow-k6, and longhaul cpufreq drivers from
Srivatsa S Bhat.
- Fix for a computational error in the powernow-k6 cpufreq driver
from Srivatsa S Bhat"

This branch fixes a bug where a device can get stuck in the deferred
list even though all its dependencies are met. The bug has existed
for a long time, but new platform conversions to device tree have
exposed it. This patch is needed to get those platforms working.
This was the pending bug fix I mentioned in my previous pull request.
