eem_wrap() is sending a sentinel CRC, but it didn't indicate that to
the host, it should zero bit 14 (bmCRC) in the EEM packet header,
instead of setting it.
Also remove a redundant crc calculation in eem_unwrap().

With CONFIG_USB_ULPI=y, CONFIG_USB<=m, CONFIG_PCI=n and
CONFIG_USB_OTG_UTILS=n, which is the default used for mx31moboard,
the build for all mx3 platforms fails because drivers/usb/otg/ulpi.c
where otg_ulpi_create is defined is not compiled.
Build error:
arch/arm/mach-mx3/built-in.o: In function `mxc_board_init':
kzmarm11.c:(.init.text+0x73c): undefined reference to `otg_ulpi_create'
kzmarm11.c:(.init.text+0x1020): undefined reference to `otg_ulpi_create'
This isn't a strong dependency as drivers/usb/otg/ulpi.c doesn't
use functions defined in drivers/usb/otg/otg.o and is only needed
to get ulpi.o linked into the kernel image.

g_multi used CONFIG_USB_ETH_RNDIS to check if RNDIS option was requested
where it should check for CONFIG_USB_G_MULTI_RNDIS. As a result, RNDIS
was never present in g_multi regardless of configuration.

After kfifo rework FHCI fails to build:

This is because kfifos are no longer pointers in the ep struct.
So, instead of checking the pointers, we should now check if kfifo

After kfifo rework it's no longer possible to reliably know if kfifo is
usable, since after kfifo_free(), kfifo_initialized() would still return
true. The correct behaviour is needed for at least FHCI USB driver.
This patch fixes the issue by resetting the kfifo to zero values (the
same approach is used in kfifo_alloc() if allocation failed).

I notice that the processcompl_compat() function seems to be leaking the
'struct async *as' in the error paths.
I think that the calling convention is fundamentally buggered. The
caller is the one that did the "reap_as()" to get the as thing, the
caller should be the one to free it too.
Freeing it in the caller also means that it very clearly always gets
freed, and avoids the need for any "free in the error case too".

This patch fixes the problem that system may stall if target's ->map_rq
returns DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE in map_request().
E.g. stall happens on 1 CPU box when a dm-mpath device with queue_if_no_path
bounces between all-paths-down and paths-up on I/O load.
When target's ->map_rq returns DM_MAPIO_REQUEUE, map_request() requeues
the request and returns to dm_request_fn(). Then, dm_request_fn()
doesn't exit the I/O dispatching loop and continues processing
the requeued request again.
This map and requeue loop can be done with interrupt disabled,
so 1 CPU system can be stalled if this situation happens.
For example, commands below can stall my 1 CPU box within 1 minute or so:
# dmsetup table mp
mp: 0 2097152 multipath 1 queue_if_no_path 0 1 1 service-time 0 1 2 8:144 1 1
# while true; do dd if=/dev/mapper/mp of=/dev/null bs=1M count=100; done &
# while true; do \
> dmsetup message mp 0 "fail_path 8:144" \
> dmsetup suspend --noflush mp \
> dmsetup resume mp \
> dmsetup message mp 0 "reinstate_path 8:144" \
> done
To fix the problem above, this patch changes dm_request_fn() to exit
the I/O dispatching loop once if a request is requeued in map_request().

When suspending a failed mirror, bios are completed by mirror_end_io() and
__rh_lookup() in dm_rh_dec() returns NULL where a non-NULL return value is
required by design. Fix this by not changing the state of the recovery failed
region from DM_RH_RECOVERING to DM_RH_NOSYNC in dm_rh_recovery_end().

Analysis
When recovery process of a region failed, dm_rh_recovery_end() function
changes the state of the region from RM_RH_RECOVERING to DM_RH_NOSYNC.
When recovery_complete() is executed between dm_rh_update_states() and
dm_writes() in do_mirror(), bios are processed with the region state,
DM_RH_NOSYNC. However, the region data is freed without checking its
pending count when dm_rh_update_states() is called next time.
When bios are finished by mirror_end_io(), __rh_lookup() in dm_rh_dec()
returns NULL even though a valid return value are expected.
Solution
Remove the state change of the recovery failed region from DM_RH_RECOVERING
to DM_RH_NOSYNC in dm_rh_recovery_end(). We can remove the state change
because:
- If the region data has been released by dm_rh_update_states(),
a new region data is created with the state of DM_RH_NOSYNC, and
bios are processed according to the DM_RH_NOSYNC state.
- If the region data has not been released by dm_rh_update_states(),
a state of the region is DM_RH_RECOVERING and bios are put in the
delayed_bio list.
The flag change from DM_RH_RECOVERING to DM_RH_NOSYNC in dm_rh_recovery_end()
was added in the following commit:

If the mirror log fails when the handle_errors option was not selected
and there is no remaining valid mirror leg, writes return success even
though they weren't actually written to any device. This patch
completes them with EIO instead.
This code path is taken:
do_writes:
bio_list_merge(&ms->failures, &sync);
do_failures:
if (!get_valid_mirror(ms)) (false)
else if (errors_handled(ms)) (false)
else bio_endio(bio, 0);
The logic in do_failures is based on presuming that the write was already
tried: if it succeeded at least on one leg (without handle_errors) it
is reported as success.

This patch fixes two bugs that revolve around the miscalculation and
misuse of the variable 'overhead_size'. 'overhead_size' is the size of
the various header structures used during communication.
The first bug is the use of 'sizeof' with the pointer of a structure
instead of the structure itself - resulting in the wrong size being
computed. This is then used in a check to see if the payload
(data_size) would be to large for the preallocated structure. Since the
bug produces a smaller value for the overhead, it was possible for the
structure to be breached. (Although the current users of the code do
not currently send enough data to trigger this bug.)
The second bug is that the 'overhead_size' value is used to compute how
much of the preallocated space should be cleared before populating it
with fresh data. This should have simply been 'sizeof(struct cn_msg)'
not overhead_size. The fact that 'overhead_size' was computed
incorrectly made this problem "less bad" - leaving only a pointer's
worth of space at the end uncleared. Thus, this bug was never producing
a bad result, but still needs to be fixed - especially now that the
value is computed correctly.

Since the rewrite of the CPU idle governor in 2.6.32, two laptops have
surfaced where the BIOS advertises a C2 power state, but for some reason
this state is not functioning (as verified in both cases by powertop
before the patch in .32).
The old governor had the accidental behavior that if a non-working state
was chosen too many times, it would end up falling back to C1. The new
governor works differently and this accidental behavior is no longer
there; the result is a high temperature on these two machines.
This patch adds these 2 machines to the DMI table for C state anomalies;
by just not using C2 both these machines are better off (the TSC can be
used instead of the pm timer, giving a performance boost for example).

Commit fe06fba2 (ACPI: dock: add struct dock_station * directly
to platform device data) changed dock_add() to use the
platform_device_register_data() API.
We passed that interface a stack variable, which is kmemdup'ed
and assigned to the device's platform_data pointer.
Unfortunately, whatever random garbage is in the stack variable
gets coped during the kmemdup, and that leads to broken behavior.
Explicitly zero out the structure before passing it to the API.
This fixes the T41 docking button issue:

The cached read and write paths initialize fattr->time_start in their
setup procedures. The value of fattr->time_start is propagated to
read_cache_jiffies by nfs_update_inode(). Subsequent calls to
nfs_attribute_timeout() will then use a good time stamp when
computing the attribute cache timeout, and squelch unneeded GETATTR
calls.
Since the direct I/O paths erroneously leave the inode's
fattr->time_start field set to zero, read_cache_jiffies for that inode
is set to zero after any direct read or write operation. This
triggers an otw GETATTR or ACCESS call to update the file's attribute
and access caches properly, even when the NFS READ or WRITE replies
have usable post-op attributes.
Make sure the direct read and write setup code performs the same fattr
initialization as the cached I/O paths to prevent unnecessary GETATTR
calls.
This was likely introduced by commit 0e574af1 in 2.6.15, which appears
to add new nfs_fattr_init() call sites in the cached read and write
paths, but not in the equivalent places in fs/nfs/direct.c. A
subsequent commit in the same series, 33801147, introduces the
fattr->time_start field.
Interestingly, the direct write reschedule path already has a call to
nfs_fattr_init() in the right place.
