... and don't bother in callers. Don't bother with zeroing i_blocks, while we are at it - it's already been zeroed. i_mode is not worth the effort; it has no common default value. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2008-12-16sgi-xp: xpc needs to pass the physical address, not virtualRuss Anderson
Impact: fix crash xpc needs to pass the physical address, not virtual. Testing uncovered this problem. The virtual address happens to work most of the time due to the way bios was masking off the node bits. Passing the physical address makes it work all of the time.

2008-11-26ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: fix fan sleep/resume pathHenrique de Moraes Holschuh
This fixes a regression from v2.6.27, caused by commit 5814f737e1cd2cfa2893badd62189acae3e1e1fd, "ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: attempt to preserve fan state on resume". It is possible for fan_suspend() to fail to properly initialize fan_control_desired_level as required by fan_resume(), resulting on the fan always being set to level 7 on resume if the user didn't touch the fan controller. In order to get fan sleep/resume handling to work right: 1. Fix the fan_suspend handling of the T43 firmware quirk. If it is still undefined, we didn't touch the fan yet and that means we have no business doing it on resume. 2. Store the fan level on its own variable to avoid any possible issues with hijacking fan_control_desired_level (which isn't supposed to have anything other than 0-7 in it, anyway). 3. Change the fan_resume code to me more straightforward to understand (although we DO optimize the boolean logic there, otherwise it looks disgusting). 4. Add comments to help understand what the code is supposed to be doing. 5. Change fan_set_level to be less strict about how auto and full-speed modes are requested. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11982 Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Reported-by: Tino Keitel <tino.keitel@tikei.de> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

After commit 540b8bb9c33935183ceb5bed466a42ad72b2af56: sony-laptop: fingers off backlight if video.ko is serving this functionality I can't set brightness on my sony laptop (nothing in /sys/class/backlight). dmesg says "sony-laptop: Sony: Brightness ignored, must be controlled by ACPI video driver". The function acpi_video_backlight_support returns 0 if we should use the vendor-specific backlight support, while non-0 if the ACPI generic should be used. Because of this, the check introduced by the said commit appears reversed. Signed-off-by: Alessandro Guido <ag@alessandroguido.name> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

The Lifebook S6420 is the ICH9M-based follow-up to the S6410. The application panel contains the following keys: lock, mobility center, eco, info.

2008-11-06ACPI: remove CONFIG_ACPI_ECBjorn Helgaas
Remove CONFIG_ACPI_EC. It was always set the same as CONFIG_ACPI, and it had no menu label, so there was no way to set it to anything other than "y". Per section 6.5.4 of the ACPI 3.0b specification, OSPM must make Embedded Controller operation regions, accessed via the Embedded Controllers described in ECDT, available before executing any control method. The ECDT table is optional, but if it is present, the above text means that the EC it describes is a required part of the ACPI subsystem, so CONFIG_ACPI_EC=n wouldn't make sense.

2008-11-01saner FASYNC handling on file closeAl Viro
As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync() need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget. So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set. And lose that crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we don't have to bother anymore.
