2010-01-15serial: sh-sci: using correct fifo size for SCIF and SCIFA ports.Markus Pietrek
The sh-sci driver used the wrong fifosize for PORT_SCIFA and PORT_SCIF ports. If an incorrect size is used, the serial core will enforce an early shutdown on the port, especially with baudrates < 9600.

2010-01-13tg3: Disable 5717 serdes and B0 supportMatt Carlson
The B0 revision of the 5717 will not get enough testing by the time 2.6.33 ships. Since the kernel is already at RC3, serdes support will require too many patches to fix. For these reasons, this patch disables 5717 serdes support and will refuse to attach to all 5717 devices that are later than an A0 revision.

2010-01-13tg3: Fix std rx prod ring handlingMatt Carlson
There are some tg3 devices that require the driver to post new rx buffers in smaller increments. Commit 4361935afe3abc3e5a93006b99197fac1fabbd50, "tg3: Consider rx_std_prod_idx a hw mailbox" changed how the driver tracks the rx producer ring updates, but it does not make any special considerations for the above-mentioned devices. For those devices, it is possible for the driver to hit the special case path, which updates the hardware mailbox register but skips updating the shadow software mailbox member. If the special case path represents the final mailbox update for this ISR iteration, the hardware and software mailbox values will be out of sync. Ultimately, this will cause the driver to use a stale mailbox value on the next iteration, which will appear to the hardware as a large rx buffer update. Bad things ensue. The fix is to update the software shadow mailbox member when the special case path is taken.

Commit 87668d352aa8d135bd695a050f18bbfc7b50b506, titled "tg3: Don't touch RCB nic addresses", tried to avoid assigning the nic address of the standard producer ring. Unfortunately, the default nic address is not correct for the 5787, the 5755M, or the 57765. This patch reenables the old behavior and opts out of the assignment only for the 5717.

2010-01-13xen: fix hang on suspend.Ian Campbell
In 65f63384 "xen: improve error handling in do_suspend" I said: - xs_suspend()/xs_resume() and dpm_suspend_noirq()/dpm_resume_noirq() were not nested in the obvious way. and changed the ordering of the calls as so: BEFORE AFTER xs_suspend dpm_suspend_noirq dpm_suspend_noirq xs_suspend *SUSPEND* *SUSPEND* dpm_resume_noirq dpm_resume_noirq xs_resume xs_resume Clearly this is not an improvement and I was talking rubbish. In particular the new ordering is susceptible to a hang if a xenstore write is in progress at the point at which the suspend kicks in. When the suspend process calls xs_suspend it tries to take the request_mutex but if a write is in progress it could be looping in xenbus_xs.c:read_reply() waiting for something to arrive on &xs_state.reply_list while holding the request_mutex (taken in the caller of read_reply). However if we have done dpm_suspend_noirq before xs_suspend then we won't get any more xenstore interrupts and process_msg() will never be woken up to add anything to the reply_list. Fix this by calling xs_suspend before dpm_suspend_noirq. If dpm_suspend_noirq fails then make sure we go through the xs_suspend_cancel() code path.

2010-01-12sata_promise: don't classify overruns as HSM errorsMikael Pettersson
When sata_promise encounters an overrun or underrun error it translates that to a libata AC_ERR_HSM, causing a hard reset. Since over/under-runs were thought to be rare and transient, this action seemed reasonable. Unfortunately it turns out that the controller throws overrun errors when e.g. hal polls a CD or DVD writer containing blank media, causing long sequences of hard resets and retries before EH finally gives up. This patch updates sata_promise to classify over/under-runs as AC_ERR_OTHER instead. This allows libata EH and upper layers to retry or fail the operation as they see fit without the disruption caused by repeated hard resets. This fixes a problem using a DVD-RAM drive with sata_promise, reported by Thomas Schorpp. I also tested it on a DVD-RW drive.
