The zfcp_scsi_queuecommand was not acting according to the standard
when the respective unit was not available. In this case an -EBUSY was
returned, which is not valid in itself, and in addition scsi_done
was called. This combination is not allowed and was leading to a
double finish of the request and therefor double decrement of the
host_busy counter.

Waiting for the ERP to be finished in a task running in the global
kernel work-queue is a bad idea, especially if the ERP needs to run
another job in this work-queue before it can finish. -> deadlock.
This patch removes the necessity to wait for a finished ERP from the
scan task and moves the job scheduling to the end of the ERP.

The check of having a valid pointer was performed before the
processing was secured by the lock. Between those two steps the
pointer can turn invalid. During further processing another value is
used (referenced by the pointer described above) as a function pointer
which is never verified to be valid either, resulting under some
circumstances in an invalid function call. This patch is fixing both
issues.

Aborting a SCSI cmnd might requrie to send a abort_fsf_cmnd. If the
creation of this fsf_req fails an ERR_PTR is returned where a NULL
value would be expected as an error indicator. This ERR_PTR is
dereferenced as valid fsf_req in succeeding processing leading to
an error.

When the "hpwdt" module is loaded (even if the /dev/watchdog device is not
opened), then kdump does not work. The panic kernel either does not start at
all or crash in various places.
The problem is that hpwdt_pretimeout is registered with register_die_notifier()
with the highest possible priority. Because it returns NOTIFY_STOP, the
crash_nmi_callback which is also registered with register_die_notifier()
is never executed. This causes the shutdown of other CPUs to fail.
Reverting the order is no option: The crash_nmi_callback executes HLT
and so never returns normally. Because of that, it must be executed as
last notifier, which currently is done.
So, that patch returns NOTIFY_OK to keep the crash_nmi_callback executed.

ml_ff_playback() uses spin_(un)lock_bh. However this function is called
with interrupts disabled from erase_effect() in drivers/input/ff-core.c:196.
This is not permitted, and will result in a WARN_ON in the bottom half handling code.
This patch changes this function to just use spin_lock_irqsave() instead, solving
the problem and simplifying the locking logic.

a) hisax_init_pcmcia() needs to be defined only if we have
CONFIG_HOTPLUG (no PCMCIA support otherwise) and can be declared
__devinit.
b) HiSax_inithardware() can go __init
c) hisax_register() is passing to checkcard() full-blown hisax_cs_setup_card():
checkcard(i, id, NULL, hisax_d_if->owner, hisax_cs_setup_card);
The problem with it is that
* hisax_cs_setup_card() is __devinit
* hisax_register() is not
* hisax_cs_setup_card() is a switch from hell, calling a lot of
setup_some_weirdcard() depending on card->typ. _These_ are also
__devinit.
However, in hisax_register() we have card->typ equal to
ISDN_CTYPE_DYNAMIC, which reduces hisax_cs_setup_card() to "nevermind
all that crap, just do nothing and return 2". So we add a
trimmed-down callback doing just that and passed to checkcard() by
hisax_register(). _This_ is non-init (we can stand the impact on
.text size).

The code
if (shost->dma_channel != NO_ISA_DMA)
free_dma(shost->dma_channel);
in there is triggerable only if we have CONFIG_ISA (we only set ->dma_channel to
something other than NO_ISA_DMA under #ifdef CONFIG_ISA). OTOH, free_dma() is
not guaranteed to be there in absense of CONFIG_ISA. IOW, driver runs into
undefined symbols on PCI-but-not-ISA configs (e.g. on frv) and it's a false
positive.
Fix: put the entire if () under #ifdef CONFIG_ISA; behaviour doesn't change and
dependency on free_dma() disappears for !CONFIG_ISA.

Commit 7ff93f8b ("mlx4_core: Multiple port type support") introduced
support for different port types. As part of that support, SET_PORT
is invoked to set the port type during driver startup. However, as a
side-effect, for IB ports the invocation of this command also sets the
port's capability mask to zero (losing the default value set by FW).
To fix this, get the default ib port capabilities (via a MAD_IFC Port
Info query) during driver startup, and save them for use in the
mlx4_SET_PORT command when setting the port-type to Infiniband.
This patch fixes problems with subnet manager (SM) failover such as
<https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1183>, which occurred
because the IsTrapSupported bit in the capability mask was zeroed.

the toshiba ACPI driver will, in a failure case, free the rfkill state
before stopping the polling timer that would use this state. More interesting,
in the same failure case handling, it calls the exit function, which also
frees the rfkill state, but after stopping the polling.
If the race happens, a NULL pointer is passed to rfkill_force_state()
which then causes a nice dereference.
Fix the race by just not doing the too-early freeing of the rfkill state.
This appears to be the cause of a hot issue on kerneloops.org; while I
have no solid evidence of that this patch will fix the issue, the race
appears rather real.
