rfkill: export persistent attribute in sysfs
This information allows userspace to implement a hybrid policy where
it can store the rfkill soft-blocked state in platform non-volatile
storage if available, and if not then file-based storage can be used.
Some users prefer platform non-volatile storage because of the behaviour
when dual-booting multiple versions of Linux, or if the rfkill setting
is changed in the BIOS setting screens, or if the BIOS responds to
wireless-toggle hotkeys itself before the relevant platform driver has
been loaded.

eeepc-laptop: read rfkill soft-blocked state on resume
This will respect state changes over hibernation, e.g. if the user
disables the wireless in the BIOS setup screen.
It reveals an issue where ACPI silently kills the wireless on
suspend. Normally, the BIOS restores the correct state from
non-volatile storage on boot. But when hibernation is aborted,
the wireless would remain killed. Fortunately we can work around
this in the resume handler by simply writing back the same value we
read from NVS.

rfkill: don't restore software blocked state on persistent devices
The setting of the "persistent" flag is also made more explicit using
a new rfkill_init_sw_state() function, instead of special-casing
rfkill_set_sw_state() when it is called before registration.
Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding
another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon.
If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod
rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state.
Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user
experience. For example, they can avoid the above problem if they
toggle devices individually. Then there would be no "global state"
to get out of sync.
Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked
state. thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume.
eeepc-laptop will require modification.

ath9k: Fix PCI FATAL interrupts by restoring RETRY_TIMEOUT disabling
An earlier commit, 'ath9k: remove dummy PCI "retry timeout" fix', removed
code that was documented to disable RETRY_TIMEOUT register (PCI reg
0x41) since it was claimed to be a no-op. However, it turns out that
there are some combinations of hosts and ath9k-supported cards for
which this is not a no-op (reg 0x41 has value 0x80, not 0) and this
code (or something similar) is needed. In such cases, the driver may
be next to unusable due to very frequent PCI FATAL interrupts from the
card.
Reverting the earlier commit, i.e., restoring the RETRY_TIMEOUT
disabling, seems to resolve the issue. Since the removal of this code
was not based on any known issue and was purely a cleanup change, the
safest option here is to just revert that commit. Should there be
desire to clean this up in the future, the change will need to be
tested with a more complete coverage of cards and host systems.

In addition to KT_DEAD which has limited support for diacriticals,
there is KT_DEAD2 that can support 256 criticals, so let's advertise
it in <linux/keyboard.h>.
This lets userland know abut the drivers/char/keyboard.c function
k_dead2, which supports more than the few trivial ones that k_dead
supports.

kallsyms: support kernel symbols in Blackfin on-chip memory
The Blackfin arch has a discontiguous .text layout due to having on-chip
instruction memory and no virtual memory support. As such, we need to
add explicit checks for these additional .text regions.

mlx4_core: Don't double-free IRQs when falling back from MSI-X to INTx
When both MSI-X and legacy INTx fail to generate an interrupt, the
driver frees the MSI-X interrupts twice. Fix this by clearing the
have_irq flag for the MSI-X interrupts when they are freed the first
time. This is the same bug that was reported in ib_mthca by Yinghai
Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com>.
