The commit 2e124b4a390ca85325fae75764bef92f0547fa25 removed the checks
that prevented qt2_process_read_urb() from trying to put chars into
ttys that weren't actually opened. This resulted in 'tty is NULL'
warnings from flush_to_ldisc() when the device was used.
The devices use just one read urb for all ports. As a result
qt2_process_read_urb() may be called with the current port set to a
port number that has not been opened. Add a check if the port is open
before calling tty_flip_buffer_push().

drivers/usb/phy/ should be compiled everytime
we have CONFIG_USB_OTG_UTILS enabled.
phy/ should've been part of the build process based
on CONFIG_USB_OTG_UTILS, don't know where I had my head
when I allowed CONFIG_USB_COMMON there.
In fact commit c6156328dec52a55f90688cbfad21c83f8711d84
tried to fix a previous issue but it made things even
worse.
The real solution is to compile phy/ based on
CONFIG_USB_OTG_UTILS which gets selected by all PHY
drivers.
I only triggered the error recently after accepting a
patch which moved a bunch of code from otg/otg.c to
phy/phy.c and running 100 randconfig cycles.

This reverts commit 200e0d99 ("USB: storage: optimize to match the
Huawei USB storage devices and support new switch command" and the
followup bugfix commit cd060956 ("USB: storage: properly handle
the endian issues of idProduct").
The commit effectively added a large number of Huawei devices to
the deprecated usb-storage mode switching logic. Many of these
devices have been in use and supported by the userspace
usb_modeswitch utility for years. Forcing the switching inside
the kernel causes a number of regressions as a result of ignoring
existing onfigurations, and also completely takes away the ability
to configure mode switching per device/system/user.
Known regressions caused by this:
- Some of the devices support multiple modes, using different
switching commands. There are existing configurations taking
advantage of this.
- There is a real use case for disabling mode switching and
instead mounting the exposed storage device. This becomes
impossible with switching logic inside the usb-storage driver.
- At least on device fail as a result of the usb-storage switching
command, becoming completely unswitchable. This is possibly a
firmware bug, but still a regression because the device work as
expected using usb_modeswitch defaults.
In-kernel mode switching was deprecated years ago with the
development of the more user friendly userspace alternatives. The
existing list of devices in usb-storage was only kept to prevent
breaking already working systems. The long term plan is to remove
the list, not to add to it. Ref:

Commit 80ab72e1 (usb: musb: omap2430: fix the readiness check
in omap_musb_mailbox) made the check incorrect, as we will lose the
glue/link status during the normal built-in probe order (twl4030_usb is
probed after musb omap2430, but before musb core is ready).
As a result, if you boot with USB cable on and load g_ether, the
connection does not work as the code thinks the cable is off and the
phy gets powered down immediately. This is a major regression in 3.9-rc1.
So the proper check should be: exit if _glue is NULL, but if it's
initialized we memorize the status, and then check if the musb core
is ready.

This patch (as1661) fixes a rather obscure bug in ehci-hcd. In a
couple of places, the driver compares the DMA address stored in a QH's
overlay region with the address of a particular qTD, in order to see
whether that qTD is the one currently being processed by the hardware.
(If it is then the status in the QH's overlay region is more
up-to-date than the status in the qTD, and if it isn't then the
overlay's value needs to be adjusted when the QH is added back to the
active schedule.)
However, DMA address in the overlay region isn't always valid. It
sometimes will contain a stale value, which may happen by coincidence
to be equal to a qTD's DMA address. Instead of checking the DMA
address, we should check whether the overlay region is active and
valid. The patch tests the ACTIVE bit in the overlay, and clears this
bit when the overlay becomes invalid (which happens when the
currently-executing URB is unlinked).
This is the second part of a fix for the regression reported at:

This patch (as1660) works around a hardware problem present in some
(if not all) Intel EHCI controllers. After a QH has been unlinked
from the async schedule and the corresponding IAA interrupt has
occurred, the controller is not supposed access the QH and its qTDs.
There certainly shouldn't be any more DMA writes to those structures.
Nevertheless, Intel's controllers have been observed to perform a
final writeback to the QH's overlay region and to the most recent qTD.
For more information and a test program to determine whether this
problem is present in a particular controller, see
http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=135492071812265&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=136182570800963&w=2
This patch works around the problem by always waiting for two IAA
cycles when unlinking an async QH. The extra IAA delay gives the
controller time to perform its final writeback.
Surprisingly enough, the effects of this silicon bug have gone
undetected until quite recently. More through luck than anything
else, it hasn't caused any apparent problems. However, it does
interact badly with the path that follows this one, so it needs to be
addressed.

USB uses the .find_bridge() callback from struct acpi_bus_type
incorrectly, because as a result of the way it is used by USB every
device in the system that doesn't have a bus type or parent is
passed to usb_acpi_find_device() for inspection.
What USB actually needs, though, is to call usb_acpi_find_device()
for USB ports that don't have a bus type defined, but have
usb_port_device_type as their device type, as well as for USB
devices.
To fix that replace the struct bus_type pointer in struct
acpi_bus_type used for matching devices to specific subsystems
with a .match() callback to be used for this purpose and update
the users of struct acpi_bus_type, including USB, accordingly.
Define the .match() callback routine for USB, usb_acpi_bus_match(),
in such a way that it will cover both USB devices and USB ports
and remove the now redundant .find_bridge() callback pointer from
usb_acpi_bus.

Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-"
and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules
to match.
A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code
that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many
users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel.
Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible
modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially
making things safer with no real cost.
Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which
filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf
with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe,
well understood work-arounds to known problematic software.
This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem
name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading
would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such
cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module
autofs4.
This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request
module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and
people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case
the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module.
After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any
particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond
making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem
module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module()
without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem
module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep.
Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a
filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user
namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT,
which most filesystems do not set today.

Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
"Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing ->d_name/->d_parent
locking violations, etc.
The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
"has ->d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
to inode. Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.
Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.
PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

This patch (as1649) reverts commit
55bcdce8a8228223ec4d17d8ded8134ed265d2c5 (USB: EHCI: remove ASS/PSS
polling timeout). That commit was written under the assumption that
some controllers may take a very long time to turn off their async and
periodic schedules. It now appears that in fact the schedules do get
turned off reasonably quickly, but some controllers occasionally leave
the schedules' status bits turned on and consequently ehci-hcd can't
tell that the schedules are off.
VIA controllers in particular have this problem. ehci-hcd tells the
hardware to turn off the async schedule, the schedule does get turned
off, but the status bit remains on. Since the EHCI spec requires that
the schedules not be re-enabled until the previous disable has taken
effect, with an unlimited timeout the async schedule never gets turned
back on. The resulting symptom is that the system is unable to
communicate with USB devices.
