2009-01-04sanitize AUDIT_MQ_SENDRECVAl Viro
* logging the original value of *msg_prio in mq_timedreceive(2) is insane - the argument is write-only (i.e. syscall always ignores the original value and only overwrites it). * merge __audit_mq_timed{send,receive} * don't do copy_from_user() twice * don't mess with allocations in auditsc part * ... and don't bother checking !audit_enabled and !context in there - we'd already checked for audit_dummy_context().

2009-01-02V4L/DVB (10164): Add missing S2 caps flag to S2APIKlaus Schmidinger
The attached patch adds a capability flag that allows an application to determine whether a particular device can handle "second generation modulation" transponders. This is necessary in order for applications to be able to decide which device to use for a given channel in a multi device environment, where DVB-S and DVB-S2 devices are mixed. It is assumed that a device capable of handling "second generation modulation" can implicitly handle "first generation modulation". The flag is not named anything with DVBS2 in order to allow its use with future DVBT2 devices as well (should they ever come).

2009-01-02Serial: Allow port type to be specified when calling serial8250_register_port.David Daney
Add flag value UPF_FIXED_TYPE which specifies that the UART type is known and should not be probed. For this case the UARTs properties are just copied out of the uart_config entry. This allows us to keep SOC specific 8250 probe code out of 8250.c. In this case we know the serial hardware will not be changing as it is on the same silicon as the CPU, and we can specify it with certainty in the board/cpu setup code. The alternative is to load up 8250.c with a bunch of OCTEON specific special cases in the probing code.

2009-01-028250: Serial driver changes to support future Cavium OCTEON serial patches.David Daney
In order to use Cavium OCTEON specific serial i/o drivers, we first patch the 8250 driver to use replaceable I/O functions. Compatible I/O functions are added for existing iotypeS. An added benefit of this change is that it makes it easy to factor some of the existing special cases out to board/SOC specific support code. The alternative is to load up 8250.c with a bunch of OCTEON specific iotype code and bug work-arounds.

2009-01-02tty: We want the port object to be persistentAlan Cox
Move the tty_port and uart_info bits around a little. By embedding the uart_info into the uart_port we get rid of lots of corner case testing and also get the ability to go port<->state<->info which is a bit more elegant than the current data structures. Downsides - we allocate a tiny bit more memory for unused ports, upside we've removed as much code as it saved for most users..
