2005-11-05[DRIVER MODEL] Fix sgivwfbRussell King
Statically allocated devices in module data is a potential cause of oopsen. The device may be in use by a userspace process, which will keep a reference to the device. If the module is unloaded, the module data will be freed. Subsequent use of the platform device will cause a kernel oops. Use generic platform device allocation/release code in modules.

2005-11-05[DRIVER MODEL] Improved dynamically allocated platform_device interfaceRussell King
Re-jig the simple platform device support to allow private data to be attached to a platform device, as well as allowing the parent device to be set. Example usage: pdev = platform_device_alloc("mydev", id); if (pdev) { err = platform_device_add_resources(pdev, &resources, ARRAY_SIZE(resources)); if (err == 0) err = platform_device_add_data(pdev, &platform_data, sizeof(platform_data)); if (err == 0) err = platform_device_add(pdev); } else { err = -ENOMEM; } if (err) platform_device_put(pdev); Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-11-04[PATCH] nvidiafb: Geforce 7800 series support addedCalin A. Culianu
This adds support for the Nvidia Geforce 7800 series of cards to the nvidiafb framebuffer driver. All it does is add the PCI device id for the 7800, 7800 GTX, 7800 GO, and 7800 GTX GO cards to the module device table for the nvidiafb.ko driver, so that nvidiafb.ko will actually work on these cards. I also added the relevant PCI device ids to linux/pci_ids.h I tested it on my 7800 GTX here and it works like a charm. I now can get framebuffer support on this card! Woo hoo!! Nothing like 200x75 text mode to make your eyes BLEED. ;) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-11-01[PATCH] blk: fix dangling pointer access in __elv_add_requestTejun Heo
cfq's add_req_fn callback may invoke q->request_fn directly and depending on low-level driver used and timing, a queued request may be finished & deallocated before add_req_fn callback returns. So, __elv_add_request must not access rq after it's passed to add_req_fn callback. This patch moves rq_mergeable test above add_req_fn(). This may result in q->last_merge pointing to REQ_NOMERGE request if add_req_fn callback sets it but as RQ_NOMERGE is checked again when blk layer actually tries to merge requests, this does not cause any problem.
