2008-10-16autofs4: cleanup autofs mount type usageIan Kent
Usage of the AUTOFS_TYPE_* defines is a little confusing and appears inconsistent. Signed-off-by: Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-10-16eCryptfs: remove netlink transportTyler Hicks
The netlink transport code has not worked for a while and the miscdev transport is a simpler solution. This patch removes the netlink code and makes the miscdev transport the only eCryptfs kernel to userspace transport.

2008-10-16eCryptfs: remove retry loop in ecryptfs_readdir()Michael Halcrow
The retry block in ecryptfs_readdir() has been in the eCryptfs code base for a while, apparently for no good reason. This loop could potentially run without terminating. This patch removes the loop, instead erroring out if vfs_readdir() on the lower file fails.

2008-10-16i2o: Fix 32/64bit DMA lockingAlan Cox
The I2O ioctls assume 32bits. In itself that is fine as they are old cards and nobody uses 64bit. However on LKML it was noted this assumption is also made for allocated memory and is unsafe on 64bit systems. Fixing this is a mess. It turns out there is tons of crap buried in a header file that does racy 32/64bit filtering on the masks. So we: - Verify all callers of the racy code can sleep (i2o_dma_[re]alloc) - Move the code into a new i2o/memory.c file - Remove the gfp_mask argument so nobody can try and misuse the function - Wrap a mutex around the problem area (a single mutex is easy to do and none of this is performance relevant) - Switch the remaining problem kmalloc holdout to use i2o_dma_alloc Cc: Markus Lidel <Markus.Lidel@shadowconnect.com> Cc: Vasily Averin <vvs@sw.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-10-16spi: core and gpio expanders use subsys_initDavid Brownell
Make the SPI external GPIO expander drivers register themselves at subsys_initcall() time when they're statically linked, and make the SPI core do its driver model initialization earlier so that's safe. SOC-integrated GPIOs are available starting very early -- often before initcalls start to run, or earily in arch_initcall() at latest -- so this improves consistency, letting more subsystems rely on GPIOs being usable by their own subsys_initcall() code.

2008-10-16pxa2xx_spi: fix chip_info defaults and documentation.Vernon Sauder
Make the chip info structure data optional by providing reasonable defaults. Improve corresponding documentation, and highlight the drawback of not providing explicit chipselect control.

2008-10-16spi_s3c24xx: pin configuration updatesBen Dooks
Add a pin configuration callback for the s3c24xx SPI driver, as there are several options depending on the channel and the chip in use. This is needed as the controller may not have been setup by the initial bootloader and the fact that the SPI controller gets reset over suspend/resume into slave mode but the GPIO function registers do not.

2008-10-16Allow recursion in binfmt_script and binfmt_miscKirill A. Shutemov
binfmt_script and binfmt_misc disallow recursion to avoid stack overflow using sh_bang and misc_bang. It causes problem in some cases: $ echo '#!/bin/ls' > /tmp/t0 $ echo '#!/tmp/t0' > /tmp/t1 $ echo '#!/tmp/t1' > /tmp/t2 $ chmod +x /tmp/t* $ /tmp/t2 zsh: exec format error: /tmp/t2 Similar problem with binfmt_misc. This patch introduces field 'recursion_depth' into struct linux_binprm to track recursion level in binfmt_misc and binfmt_script. If recursion level more then BINPRM_MAX_RECURSION it generates -ENOEXEC. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: make linux_binprm.recursion_depth a uint] Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2008-10-16checkpatch: trailing statements ensure we report the end of the lineAndy Whitcroft
When reporting some complex trailing statements we report only the starting line of the error, that tends to imply the shown line is in error and confuse the reader.
