ACPI: Fix possible recursive locking in hwregs.c

2011-11-07T01:09:23Z

Calling pm-suspend might trigger a recursive lock in it's code path. In function acpi_hw_clear_acpi_status, acpi_os_acquire_lock holds the lock acpi_gbl_hardware_lock before calling acpi_hw_register_write(), then without releasing acpi_gbl_hardware_lock, this function calls acpi_ev_walk_gpe_list, which tries to hold acpi_gbl_gpe_lock. Both acpi_gbl_hardware_lock and acpi_gbl_gpe_lock are at same lock-class and which might cause lock recursion deadlock. Following patch fixes this scenario by just releasing acpi_gbl_hardware_lock before calling acpi_ev_walk_gpe_list.

acpi: add export.h to files using THIS_MODULE/EXPORT_SYMBOL

2011-10-31T23:30:34Z

These files were relying on module.h to come in via the path in an include/acpi header file, but we don't want to have instances of module.h being included from include/* files if it can be avoided. Have the files include export.h instead. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

acpi: add module.h to files implicitly using/relying on it.

2011-10-31T23:30:32Z

These files are using standard module API things like MODULE_AUTHOR etc. and so should not be relying on an implicit presence of the module.h header. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

acpica: ACPI_MAX_SLEEP should be 2 sec, not 20

2011-08-30T03:08:20Z

This limit is a workaround for AML that sleeps too long, but the workaround didn't work b/c of a typo. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13195 Signed-off-by: Len Brown cc: stable@kernel.org # 2.6.35..3.0

ACPICA: Do not repair _TSS return package if _PSS is present

2011-07-14T03:51:49Z

We can only sort the _TSS return package if there is no _PSS in the same scope. This is because if _PSS is present, the ACPI specification dictates that the _TSS Power Dissipation field is to be ignored, and therefore some BIOSs leave garbage values in the _TSS Power field(s). In this case, it is best to just return the _TSS package as-is. Reported-by: Fenghua Yu Signed-off-by: Fenghua Yu Signed-off-by: Bob Moore Signed-off-by: Lin Ming Signed-off-by: Len Brown
