staging: olpc_dcon: drop old VT switch code, watch for CONBLANK event
Eons ago, in a galaxy far far away, Jordan committed code to work around
the fact that X might have put the DCON to sleep and then crashed (in that
galaxy, X crashed a lot; crazy, right?)
This code was based on a custom API. These days, we have code which watches
for FB unblanks, and should perform the same function.. Therefore, the older
code can be dropped. We should probably be watching for CONBLANK events to,
so allow those to turn the DCON back on.
Dropping the old code is necessary for building the driver.

- Event thread wakes up and passes the event to
event_handler() to process.
- It processes and clears the USBIP_EH_SHUTDOWN
flag then returns.
- The outer event loop (event_handler_loop()) calls
wait_event_interruptible().
The processing of the second flag which is part of
VDEV_EVENT_DOWN (USBIP_EH_RESET) did not happen yet.
It is delayed until the next event.
This means the ->reset callback may not happen for
a long time (if ever), leaving the usbip port in a
weird state which prevents its reuse.
This patch changes the handler to process all flags
before waiting for another wakeup.
I have verified this change to fix a problem which
prevented reattach of a usbip device. It also helps
for socket errors which missed the RESET as well.
The delayed event processing also affects the stub
side of usbip and the error handling there.

staging: ath6kl: Fixing a race condition during initialization
The commit fixes a race condition in the initialization portion of the
driver. The problem was observed while testing with the kernel in the
staging-next tree. The wait on the ready event is signalled prematurely
before setting the arVersion.wlan_ver and arVersion.abi_ver. The code
waiting on this semaphore checks for the validity of these values and
hence may proceed with an un-updated values of these fields. The wakeup
signal is now sent after these values are set.
The commit fixes a compilation error that was encountered while using
a specific kernel configuration file. The problem was the use of some
functions defined in <linux/semaphore.h> without including the header
file explicitly. It was probably working before because of the
dependency getting implicitly satisfied via some other header file.
