This should resolve these bug reports of the modem not working:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4355
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/connect-script-failed-on-ppp-go-123975/
I don't have hardware to test this, but the initial report in the kernel
bugzilla indicates that this change fixed the problem.

Several of the RTC drivers are exporting binary "nvram" files in sysfs. Such
NVRAM (or on many systems, EEPROM) data is often initialized during system
manufacture to hold data about identity (serial numbers, Ethernet addresses,
etc), configuration, calibration, and so forth.
This patch improves integrity and security of those files:
- Correctly initializes the size in one of the two cases where
that was not yet being done.
- Improves system security/integrity by making this state not
be world-writable by default.
Letting arbitrary userspace code mangle such state by default is at least Not
A Good Thing; and it could sometimes be worse, depending on the particular
data that might be corrupted. (I disregard the paranoiac "don't let anyone
read it either" approach. Anyone storing passwords in such memory doesn't
really care about security.)

The RTC "hctosys" mechanism expects that RTC clock will use UTC, not local
time (e.g. PST). Say so in Kconfig and in the kernel message.
(Strictly speaking, the RTC clock should be tracking the POSIX epoch. That's
not worth going into here. Goofing timezones means clocks are wrong by many
hours; the POSIX-v-UTC differences just cost seconds.)

5784 and 5764 devices fail to link / pass traffic after one load /
unload cycle. This happens because of a hardware bug in the new CPMU.
During normal operation, the MAC depends on the PHY clock being
available. When the PHY is powered down, the clock the MAC depends on
is disabled. The fix is to switch the MAC clock to an alternate source
before powering down the PHY, and to restore the MAC clock to the PHY
source upon device resume.

When 5761 devices boot the machine using PXEboot, PXE leaves the device
active when it terminates. The tg3 driver has code to detect this
condition and resets the device during initialization. On 5761 devices,
device resets involve sending a driver state update message to the APE
on the 5761. However, during this initialization stage, communications
to the APE registers have not yet been set up. The driver then
dereferences a NULL pointer and crashes the machine. The fix is to move
the APE register access setup earlier in the initialization code to
cover this condition.

Commit bea3348e (the NAPI changes) made sungem unconditionally enable
NAPI when resuming and unconditionally disable when suspending, this,
however, makes napi_disable() hang when suspending when the interface
was taken down before suspend because taking the interface down also
disables NAPI. This patch makes touching the napi struct in
suspend/resume code paths depend on having the interface up, thereby
fixing the hang on suspend.
The patch also moves the napi_disable() in gem_close() under the lock so
that the NAPI state is always modified atomically together with the
"opened" variable.

The virtio descriptor rings of size N-1 were nicely set up to be
aligned to an N-byte boundary. But as Anthony Liguori points out, the
free-running indices used by virtio require that the sizes be a power
of 2, otherwise we get problems on wrap (demonstrated with lguest).
So we replace the clever "2^n-1" scheme with a simple "align to page
boundary" scheme: this means that all virtio rings take at least two
pages, but it's safer than guessing cache alignment.

The more_used() function compares the vq->vring.used->idx with last_used_idx.
Since vq->vring.used->idx is a 16-bit integer, and last_used_idx is an

wraps around.
This patch corrects this by changing last_used_idx to the correct type.
