blk_cleanup_queue()
Now we initialize ->queue_lock at queue allocation time so driver does
not have to worry about initializing it before calling
blk_cleanup_queue().

The current code does not follow Intel documentation: It misses some things
and does other, undocumented things. This causes wrong backlight values in
certain conditions. Instead of adding tricky code handling badly documented
and rare corner cases, don't handle combination mode specially at all. This
way PCI_LBPC is never touched and weird things shouldn't happen.
If combination mode is enabled, then the only downside is that changing the
brightness has a greater granularity (the LBPC value), but LBPC is at most
254 and the maximum is in the thousands, so this is no real functional loss.
A potential problem with not handling combined mode is that a brightness of
max * PCI_LBPC is not bright enough. However, this is very unlikely because
from the documentation LBPC seems to act as a scaling factor and doesn't look
like it's supposed to be changed after boot. The value at boot should always
result in a bright enough screen.
IMPORTANT: However, although usually the above is true, it may not be when
people ran an older (2.6.37) kernel which messed up the LBPC register, and
they are unlucky enough to have a BIOS that saves and restores the LBPC value.
Then a good kernel may seem to not work: Max brightness isn't bright enough.
If this happens people should boot back into the old kernel, set brightness
to the maximum, and then reboot. After that everything should be fine.

It is found on Dell Inspiron 1018 that the firmware reports that the hardware
killswitch is not supported. This makes the rfkill key not functional.
This patch forces the driver to toggle the firmware rfkill status in the case
that the hardware killswitch is indicated as unsupported by the firmware.

Some thinkpad hotkeys report key codes like KEY_FN_F8 when something
like KEY_VOLUMEDOWN is desired. Always provide the scan codes in
addition to the key codes to assist with debugging these issues. Also
send the scan code before the key code to match what other drivers do,
as some userspace utilities expect this ordering.

There is no need to install a chained handler for this hardware. This
is a plain x86 IOAPIC interrupt which is handled by the core code
perfectly fine. There is nothing special about demultiplexing these
gpio interrupts which justifies a custom hack. Replace it by a plain
old interrupt handler installed with request_irq. That makes the code
agnostic about the underlying primary interrupt hardware. The overhead
for this is minimal, but it gives us the advantage of accounting,
balancing and to detect interrupt storms. gpio interrupts are not
really that performance critical.

This patch re-enables UIE timer/polling emulation for rtc devices

Uwe pointed out that my alarm based UIE emulation is not sufficient
to replace the older timer/polling based UIE emulation on devices
where there is no alarm irq. This causes rtc devices without alarms
to return -EINVAL to UIE ioctls. The fix is to re-instate the old
timer/polling method for devices without alarm irqs.
This patch reverts the following commits:
042620a018afcfba1d678062b62e46 - Remove UIE emulation
1daeddd5962acad1bea55e524fc0fa - Cleanup removed UIE emulation declaration
b5cc8ca1c9c3a37eaddf709b2fd3e1 - Remove Kconfig symbol for UIE emulation
The emulation mode will still need to be wired-in with a following
patch before it will work.

There is a double completion associated with error handling for RC QPs.
The sequence is:
- The do_rc_ack() routine fields an RNR nack and there are 0
rnr_retries configured on the QP.
- qib_error_qp() stops the pending timer
- qib_rc_send_complete() is called from sdma_complete()
- qib_rc_send_complete() starts the timer because the msb of the psn
just completed says an ack is needed.
- a bunch of flushes occur as ipoib posts WQEs to an error'ed QP
- rc_timeout() calls qib_restart_rc()
- qib_restart_rc() calls qib_send_complete() with a
IB_WC_RETRY_EXC_ERR on a wqe that has already been completed in the
past
The fix avoids starting the timer since another packet will never
arrive.

Due to the default case handling the older chipsets, a bunch of the newer
ones ended up having the wrong tiling regs used. This commit switches the
default case to handle the newest chipsets.
This also makes nv4e touch the "extra" tiling regs. "nv" doesn't touch
them for C51 but traces of the NVIDIA binary driver show it being done
there.
I couldn't find NV41/NV45 traces to confirm the behaviour there, but an
educated guess was taken at each of them.

On systems where the temperature sensor is actually used, the BIOS is
likely to have locked the alarm registers. In that case, all writes
through the corresponding sysfs files would be silently ignored.
