7b95809045 pc8736x_gpio: depends on X86_32
Fix kconfig dependency warning for PC8736x_GPIO by restricting it to
X86_32.

  warning: (SCx200_GPIO && SCx200 || PC8736x_GPIO && X86) selects NSC_GPIO which has unmet direct dependencies (X86_32)

NSC_GPIO is X86_32 only.  The other driver (SCx200_GPIO) that selects
NSC_GPIO is X86_32 only (indirectly, since SCx200 depends on X86_32), so
limit this driver also.

4457d98459 kfifo: fix kfifo miss use of nozami.c
There are different types of a fifo which can not handled in C without a
lot of overhead.  So i decided to write the API as a set of macros, which
is the only way to do a kind of template meta programming without C++.
This macros handles the different types of fifos in a transparent way.

There are a lot of benefits:

- Compile time handling of the different fifo types
- Better performance (a save put or get of an integer does only generate
  9 assembly instructions on a x86)
- Type save
- Cleaner interface, the additional kfifo_..._rec() functions are gone
- Easier to use
- Less error prone
- Different types of fifos: it is now possible to define a int fifo or
  any other type. See below for an example.
- Smaller footprint for none byte type fifos
- No need of creating a second hidden variable, like in the old DEFINE_KFIFO

The API was not changed.

There are now real in place fifos where the data space is a part of the
structure.  The fifo needs now 20 byte plus the fifo space.  Dynamic
assigned or allocated create a little bit more code.

Most of the macros code will be optimized away and simple generate a
function call.  Only the really small one generates inline code.

Additionally you can now create fifos for any data type, not only the
"unsigned char" byte streamed fifos.

There is also a new kfifo_put and kfifo_get function, to handle a single
element in a fifo.  This macros generates inline code, which is lit bit
larger but faster.

I know that this kind of macros are very sophisticated and not easy to
maintain.  But i have all tested and it works as expected.  I analyzed the
output of the compiler and for the x86 the code is as good as hand written
assembler code.  For the byte stream fifo the generate code is exact the
same as with the current kfifo implementation.  For all other types of
fifos the code is smaller before, because the interface is easier to use.

The main goal was to provide an API which is very intuitive, save and easy
to use.  So linux will get now a powerful fifo API which provides all what
a developer needs.  This will save in the future a lot of kernel space,
since there is no need to write an own implementation.  Most of the device
driver developers need a fifo, and also deep kernel development will gain
benefit from this API.

Here are the results of the text section usage:

Example 1:
                        kfifo_put/_get  kfifo_in/out    current kfifo
dynamic allocated       0x000002a8      0x00000291      0x00000299
in place                0x00000291      0x0000026e      0x00000273

kfifo.c                 new             old
text section size       0x00000be5      0x000008b2

As you can see, kfifo_put/kfifo_get creates a little bit more code than
kfifo_in/kfifo_out, but it is much faster (the code is inline).

The code is complete hand crafted and optimized.  The text section size is
as small as possible.  You get all the fifo handling in only 3 kb.  This
includes type safe fix size records, dynamic records and DMA handling.

This should be the final version. All requested features are implemented.

Note: Most features of this API doesn't have any users.  All functions
which are not used in the next 9 months will be removed.  So, please adapt
your drivers and other sources as soon as possible to the new API and post
it.

This are the features which are currently not used in the kernel:

kfifo_to_user()
kfifo_from_user()
kfifo_dma_....() macros
kfifo_esize()
kfifo_recsize()
kfifo_put()
kfifo_get()

The fixed size record elements, exclude "unsigned char" fifo's and the
variable size records fifo's

This patch:

User of the kernel fifo should never bypass the API and directly access
the fifo structure.  Otherwise it will be very hard to maintain the API.

c8ba6c52e1 param: update drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_watchdog.c to new scheme
This is one of the most interesting users of module parameters in the
tree, so weaning it off the old-style non-const module_param_call
scheme is a useful exercise.

I was confused by set_param_int/get_param_int (vs. the normal
param_set_int and param_get_int), so I renamed set_param_int to
set_param_timeout, and re-used param_get_int directly instead of
get_param_int.  I also implemented param_check_wdog_ifnum and
param_check_timeout, so now the ifnum_to_use and timeout/pretimeout
parameters can just use plain module_param().

11dbf20392 tty: avoid recursive BTM in pty_close
When the console has been redirected, a hangup of the tty
will cause tty_release to be called under the big tty_mutex,
which leads to a deadlock because hangup is also called
under the BTM.

This moves the BTM deeper into the tty_hangup function so
we can close the redirected tty without holding the BTM.
In case of pty, we now need to drop the BTM before
calling tty_vhangup.

b07471fa51 tty: implement BTM as mutex instead of BKL
The tty locking now follows the rules for mutexes, so
we can replace the BKL usage with a new subsystem
wide mutex.

Using a regular mutex here will change the behaviour
when blocked on the BTM from spinning to sleeping,
but that should not be visible to the user.

Using the mutex also means that all the BTM is now
covered by lockdep.

2036521926 tty: untangle locking of wait_until_sent
Some wait_until_sent versions require the big
tty mutex, others don't and some callers of
wait_until_sent already hold it while other don't.
That leads to recursive use of the BTM in these
functions, which we're trying to get rid of.

This turns all cleans up the locking there so
that the driver's wait_until_sent function
never takes the BTM itself if it is already
called with that lock held.

In tty_set_ldisc, we now always grab the BTM before

We can use the port mutex for this and also for the hangup path so removing
the problematic use of the hangup mutex in this driver. Fix up the locking

Ultimately this driver needs to be using tty_port_ helpers which would sort
this out far better.

bf936f92a7 riscom8: kill use of lock_kernel
The riscom8 board uses lock_kernel to protect bits of the port setting
ioctl logic. We can use the port mutex for this as the logic is internal
and will also lock set versus open (a locking property that has been lost
somewhere along the way)

8fd4bd2235 vt/console: try harder to print output when panicing
Jesse's initial patch commit said:

"At panic time (i.e.  when oops_in_progress is set) we should try a bit
harder to update the screen and make sure output gets to the VT, since
some drivers are capable of flipping back to it.

So make sure we try to unblank and update the display if called from a
panic context."

I've enhanced this to add a flag to the vc that console layer can set to
indicate they want this behaviour to occur.  This also adds support to
fbcon for that flag and adds an fb flag for drivers to indicate they want
to use the support.  It enables this for KMS drivers.

26df6d1340 tty: Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODE
This patch is against the 2.6.34 source.

Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com:

     These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
     LINEMODE in the server.

     There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
     When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
     are disabled.  Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
     of signals are all disabled.  This allows the telnetd to turn
     off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
     what state the user wants the terminal to be in.

     New ioctl:
         TIOCSIG         Generate a signal to processes in the
                         current process group of the pty.

     There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
     When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
     is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
     next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
     bit set.  This allows the process on the server side of the pty
     to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
     issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.

Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.

The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:

b329becfc7 char: add WARN_ON() in misc_deregister()
misc_deregister() returns an error only when it attempts to unregister
the device that is not registered. This is the driver's bug.

Most of the drivers don't check the return value of misc_deregister().
(It is not bad thing because most of kernel *_unregister() API always
succeed and do not return value)

So it is better to indicate the error by WARN_ON() in misc_deregister().

so the reg spacing should be 4 instead of 1.

31d1d48e19 Fix init ordering of /dev/console vs callers of modprobe
Make /dev/console get initialised before any initialisation routine that
invokes modprobe because if modprobe fails, it's going to want to open
/dev/console, presumably to write an error message to.

The problem with that is that if the /dev/console driver is not yet
initialised, the chardev handler will call request_module() to invoke
modprobe, which will fail, because we never compile /dev/console as a
module.

This will lead to a modprobe loop, showing the following in the kernel
log:

	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1
	request_module: runaway loop modprobe char-major-5-1

This can happen, for example, when the built in md5 module can't find
the built in cryptomgr module (because the latter fails to initialise).
The md5 module comes before the call to tty_init(), presumably because
'crypto' comes before 'drivers' alphabetically.

Fix this by calling tty_init() from chrdev_init().
