Although rfkill support for the EEE bluetooth device has been added to
2.6.28-rc the appropriate ACPI accessor definitions were not added, so
the support was non functional. The patch below adds the get and set
accessors and has been verified to work on an EEE 901.

ACPI thermal driver only re-evaluate VALID trip points.
For the broken BIOS show in
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8544
the active[0] is set to invalid at boot time
and it will not be re-evaluated again.
We can still get a single warning message at boot time.

This reverts commit 98e6e286d7b01deb7453b717aa38ebb69d6cefc0, as Yinghai
Lu reports that it breaks kexec with at least the e1000 and e1000e
drivers. The reason is that the shutdown sequence puts the hardware
into D3 sleep, and the commit causes us to claim that it then is in D0
(running) state just because we don't understand the PM capabilities.
Which then later makes "pci_set_power_state()" not do anything, and the
device never wakes up properly and just returns 0xff to everything.

Cavium OCTEON processor support was recently merged, so now we have
this CF driver for your consideration.
Most OCTEON variants have *no* DMA or interrupt support on the CF
interface so for these, only PIO is supported. Although if DMA is
available, we do take advantage of it.

This is an initial patch to do support for objects which needs physical
contiguous main ram, cursors and overlay registers on older chipsets.
These objects are bound on cursor bin, like pinning, and we copy
the data to/from the backing store object into the real one on attach/detach.
notes:
possible over the top in attach/detach operations.
no overlay support yet.

When mode setting is first initialized, the driver will call into
drm_helper_initial_config() to set up an initial output and framebuffer
configuration. This routine is responsible for probing the available
connectors, encoders, and crtcs, looking for modes and putting together
something reasonable (where reasonable is defined as "allows kernel
messages to be visible on as many displays as possible").
However, the code was a bit too aggressive in setting default modes when
none were found on a given connector. Even if some connectors had modes,
any connectors found lacking modes would have the default 800x600 mode added
to their mode list, which in some cases could cause problems later down the
line. In my case, the LVDS was perfectly available, but the initial config
code added 800x600 modes to both of the detected but unavailable HDMI
connectors (which are on my non-existent docking station). This ended up
preventing later code from setting a mode on my LVDS, which is bad.
This patch fixes that behavior by making the initial config code walk
through the connectors first, counting the available modes, before it decides
to add any default modes to a possibly connected output. It also fixes the
logic in drm_target_preferred() that was causing zeroed out modes to be set
as the preferred mode for a given connector, even if no modes were available.

This patch removes the tty->low_latency setting.
For irq based hvc_console backends the tty->low_latency must be set to 0,
because the tty_flip_buffer_push() function must not be called from IRQ context
(see drivers/char/tty_buffer.c).
For polled backends, the low_latency setting causes the bug trace below, because
tty_flip_buffer_push() is called within an atomic context and subsequent calls
might sleep due to mutex_lock.

Move the second part of the HP laptop disk protection functionality (a red
led) to the same driver. From a purely Linux developer's point of view,
the led and the accelerometer have nothing related. However, they
correspond to the same ACPI functionality, and so will always be used
together, moreover as they share the same ACPI PNP alias, there is no
other simple to allow to have same loaded at the same time if they are not
in the same module. Also make it requires the led class to compile and
update the Kconfig text.

The light sensors ALV0 and ALV1 on newer MacBooks (early 2008 and later)
changed to report 10 bytes instead the earlier 6, and the sensor encoding
subsequently changed. As a result, the reported light sensors readings
are much too low.
Via experiments leading up to this patch, it seems only the ALV0 is
reporting data, and the most useful value therein is a 10-bit big-endian
value at offset 6. This suggests that a new protocol was added as a
backward-compatible replacement on top of the old one.
This patch makes applesmc report the improved light sensor reading for the
new machines, on a scale in conformance with earlier ones.

After XPC has been up and running on multiple partitions for any length of
time, if XPC on one of the partitions is stopped and restarted (either by
a rmmod/insmod or a system restart), it is possible for the XPCs running
on the other partitions to falsely detect a lack of heartbeat from the XPC
that was just restarted. This false detection will occur if the restarted
XPC comes up within the five-seconds preceding one of the other XPC's
heartbeat check (which occurs once every twenty seconds).
The detection of no heartbeat results in the detecting XPC deactivating
from the just restarted XPC. The only remedy is to restart one of the
XPCs and hope that one doesn't hit this five-second window on any of the
other partitions.

A number of drivers in drivers/gpio return -ENODEV when confronted with
missing setup parameters such as the platform data. However, returning
-ENODEV causes the driver layer to silently ignore the driver as it
assumes the probe did not find anything and was only speculative.
To make life easier to discern why a driver is not being attached, change
to returning -EINVAL, which is a better description of the fact that the
driver data was not valid.
