2007-02-20[NET] Eliminate user-selectable CONFIG_MV643XX_ETH_[012]Dale Farnsworth
Remove the use of CONFIG_MV643XX_ETH_[012] variables on most platforms. Instead, platform-specific code enables the ports supported by the hardware. After this patch, these config variables are only used in arch/ppc, so also move them from drivers/net/Kconfig to arch/ppc/Kconfig.

2007-02-20backlight: Remove bogus SYSFS dependencyRichard Purdie
Remove a bogus SYSFS dependency from the backlight class Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: simplify corgi_bl lockingRichard Purdie
Now update_status has locking, we can remove the mutex from corgi_bl. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Separate backlight properties from backlight ops pointersRichard Purdie
Per device data such as brightness belongs to the indivdual device and should therefore be separate from the the backlight operation function pointers. This patch splits the two types of data and allows simplifcation of some code. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Clean up pmac_backlight handlingRichard Purdie
Move the setting/unsetting of pmac_backlight into the backlight core instead of doing it in each driver. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>

Improve backlight selection for fbdev drivers Signed-off-by: James Simmons <jsimmons@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Rework backlight/fb interaction simplifying, lotsRichard Purdie
fb_info->bl_mutex is badly thought out and the backlight class doesn't need it if the framebuffer/backlight register/unregister order is consistent, particularly after the backlight locking fixes. Fix the drivers to use the order: backlight_device_register() register_framebuffer() unregister_framebuffer() backlight_device_unregister() and turn bl_mutex into a lock for the bl_curve data only. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Remove unneeded backlight update_status callsRichard Purdie
The backlight core listens for blanking events and triggers a backlight_update_status call so these extra calls are not needed and can be removed. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Remove uneeded update_status call from chipsfb.cRichard Purdie
Remove uneeded update_status call from chipsfb.c since the backlight core now receives software blanking notifications too. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight/fbcon: Add FB_EVENT_CONBLANKRichard Purdie
The backlight class wants notification whenever the console is blanked but doesn't get this when hardware blanking fails and software blanking is used. Changing FB_EVENT_BLANK to report both would be a behaviour change which could confuse the console layer so add a new event for software blanking and have the backlight class listen for both. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Fix Kconfig entriesRichard Purdie
Currently its possible to build the backlight core as a module yet compile the drivers into the kernel which gives missing symbols. Fix. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Remove uneeded nvidia set_power callsRichard Purdie
nvidia_bl_set_power isn't needed since the backlight class handles this by receiving fb events itself and calling update_status so remove it. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Convert semaphore -> mutexRichard Purdie
Convert internal semaphore to a mutex Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Fix external uses of backlight internal semaphoreRichard Purdie
backlight_device->sem has a very specific use as documented in the header file. The external users of this are using it for a different reason, to serialise access to the update_status() method. backlight users were supposed to implement their own internal serialisation of update_status() if needed but everyone is doing things differently and incorrectly. Therefore add a global mutex to take care of serialisation for everyone, once and for all. Locking for get_brightness remains optional since most users don't need it. Also update the lcd class in a similar way. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Minor code cleanups for hp680_bl.cRichard Purdie
Since people use this code as an example, clean it up to to use platform_*_drvdata instead of a global variable. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Minor code cleanups for corgi_bl.cRichard Purdie
Since people use this code as an example, clean it up to to use platform_*_drvdata and remove an unneeded function. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Remove excessive (un)likelysDmitry Torokhov
Remove excessive numbers of (un)likely()s in the backlight core. There are no hot paths in this code so rely on compiler to do the right thing. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>
2007-02-20backlight: Remove unneeded owner fieldRichard Purdie
Remove uneeded owner field from backlight_properties structure. Nothing uses it and it is unlikely that it will ever be used. The backlight class uses other means to ensure that nothing references unloaded code. Based on a patch from Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@insightbb.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net>

2007-02-20[MIPS] Fixup copy_from_user_inatomicRalf Baechle
From the 01408c4939479ec46c15aa7ef6e2406be50eeeca log message: The problem is that when we write to a file, the copy from userspace to pagecache is first done with preemption disabled, so if the source address is not immediately available the copy fails *and* *zeros* *the* *destination*. This is a problem because a concurrent read (which admittedly is an odd thing to do) might see zeros rather that was there before the write, or what was there after, or some mixture of the two (any of these being a reasonable thing to see). If the copy did fail, it will immediately be retried with preemption re-enabled so any transient problem with accessing the source won't cause an error. The first copying does not need to zero any uncopied bytes, and doing so causes the problem. It uses copy_from_user_atomic rather than copy_from_user so the simple expedient is to change copy_from_user_atomic to *not* zero out bytes on failure. < --- end cite --- > This patch finally implements at least a not so pretty solution by duplicating the relevant part of __copy_user.

2007-02-20[MIPS] Fix struct sigcontext for N32 userlandAtsushi Nemoto
The kernel use 64-bit for sc_regs[0], and both N32/N64 userland expects it was 64-bit. But size of 'long' on N32 is actually 32-bit. So this definition make some confusion. Use __u32 and __u64 for N32/N64 sigcontext to get rid of this confusion. Signed-off-by: Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@mba.ocn.ne.jp> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
