When a BIOS bug presents multiple APIC/MADTs,
Linux currently uses the 1st and ignores the 2nd.
But some machines work better if we use the 2nd.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7465
Add a warning and boot parameter "acpi_apic_instance=2"
to allow parsing the 2nd.
No change to default behaviour in this patch.

This reverts commit d2487cb425.
Russell King points out that it's obviously bogus, and I have to agree.
Not only does "irq" not even exist in that scope, but we obviously need
to free the irq that we actually requested, and that's IRQ_USB.

Fix atomicity of TIF update in flush_thread() for sparc64
Fixes correctly the race by using *_ti_thread_flag.
Race :
parent process executing :
sys_ptrace()
(lock_kernel())
(ptrace_get_task_struct(pid))
arch_ptrace()
ptrace_detach()
ptrace_disable(child);
clear_singlestep(child);
clear_tsk_thread_flag(child, TIF_SINGLESTEP);
(which clears the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag atomically from a different
process)
(put_task_struct(child))
(unlock_kernel())
And at the same time, in the child process :
sys_execve()
do_execve()
search_binary_handler()
load_elf_binary()
flush_old_exec()
flush_thread()
doing a non-atomic thread flag update

Delay the read of the EC status register until
after the event that caused it occurs -- otherwise
it is possible to read and act on stale status that was
associated with the previous event.
Do this with a perpetually incrementing "event_count" to detect
when a new event occurs and it is safe to read status.
There is no workaround for polling mode -- it is inherently
exposed to reading and acting on stale status, since it
doesn't have an interrupt to tell it the event completed.

Kernel unaligned access at TPC[1000c9e4] ehci_hub_control+0x54c/0x68c [ehci_hcd]
Despite of the comment in the patched code, the type cast used there
does make unaligned access. The fix was made as it's done in
ohci-hub.c.

Here is a patch adding the PID for the FT232RL to ftdi_sio. The patch
generates a warning during compilation because get_ftdi_divisor doesn't
explicitly handle the FT232RL with this patch, so I guess you don't want
to use it in its current state. It is all I could come up with with the
knowledge I have of the drivers at the moment, though, and I hope you
can have some use for it at least. It works fine with my DLP-TILT with
an FT232RL.

I encountered some problems with the airprime driver in use with a Novatel
Merlin XU870:
Closing an open Connection to e.g. /dev/ttyUSB0 doesn't reset the
RTS/DTR lines of the Modem. Consequently, when I use minicom to
establish a connection by "ATD*99#" the modem doesn't hang up even if i
exit minicom and so I cannot reuse the modem unless I remove it and plug
it in again.
With the attached patch, the RTS/DTR lines are resetted on a close. The
code was mainly taken from the option.c driver.
Convert all the port specific code in attach / shutdown to use the new
port_probe / port_register callbacks from device_register /
device_unregister allowing adding the sysfs attributes to be added at
the correct time and to the serial port device itself, instead of to
the unadorned usb device, avoiding a NULL dereference.

I've developed some devices with FTDI chips (FT232xx). FTDI was so kind
to give some own PID's which I can use together with their VID. Some of
the devices are already very popular here and I have customers from
universities, institutes .....
I use the FTDI VID 0x0403. My PID's are:
0xff38 - IBS US485 (USB<-->RS422/485 interface)
0xff39 - IBS PIC-Programmer
0xff3a - IBS Card reader for PCMCIA SRAM-cards
0xff3b - IBS PK1 - Particel counter
0xff3c - IBS RS232 - Monitor
0xff3d - APP 70 (dust monitoring system)
0xff3e - IBS PEDO-Modem (RF modem 868.35 MHz)
0xff3f - future device
The company is "IBS Ing.-Buero Schleusener".

This patch (as863) fixes a problem encountered sometimes when resuming
a port on a UHCI controller. The hardware may turn off the
Resume-Detect bit before turning off the Suspend bit, leading usbcore
to think that the port is still suspended and the resume has failed.
The patch makes uhci_finish_suspend() wait until both bits are safely
off.

This patch (as862) fixes a couple of bugs in the way usbcore handles
intervals for interrupt URBs. usb_interrupt_msg (and usb_bulk_msg for
backward compatibility) don't set the interval correctly for
high-speed devices. proc_do_submiturb() doesn't set it correctly when
a bulk URB is submitted to an interrupt endpoint.
