Staging: hv: Introduce a common function for issuing commands to the device
There are multiple functions to either get info about the device
(INQUIRY, CAPACITY etc) or to FLUSH the device cache. The majority of the
code for these functions is identical. Introduce a common function for
doing all these operations.

Instead of adding some whilelist logic to my script just delete the

Staging: iio: oaktrail AK8975 support via IIO
Actually this is generic 'I have no GPIO' support for the AK8975, instead
we have to go bus polling.
Huang Liang produced an initial patch which worked by removing the support
for GPIO pins. This patch instead makes GPIO support optional and Huang then
fixed some bugs in it.

staging: brcm80211: Remove symbol CONFIG_BRCM80211
Since the staging driver brcm80211 was renamed to brcmsmac, CONFIG_BRCM80211
is not really needed. In addition, a two-entry list hardly needs a separate
config menu.
The only awkward place in the revised code is the double addition of the
brcm80211 Makefile.

Stream_bufs is initialized at the beginning of the function, and then the
#ifdef code declares a new variable with the same name and initializes
that. If the if in the ifdef is taken, the then branch returns, implying
that the first stream_bufs is never used and is leaked. The first
initialization is thus moved down after the ifdef.

next_pidmap() just quietly accepted whatever 'last' pid that was passed
in, which is not all that safe when one of the users is /proc.
Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range
(and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the
helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without
checking the range of its arguments.
So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT. The fact that we then do "last+1"
doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the
pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow
case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to
overflow).
[ Use PID_MAX_LIMIT rather than pid_max as per Eric Biederman ]

Input: xen-kbdfront - fix mouse getting stuck after save/restore
Mouse gets "stuck" after restore of PV guest but buttons are in working
condition.
If driver has been configured for ABS coordinates at start it will get
XENKBD_TYPE_POS events and then suddenly after restore it'll start getting
XENKBD_TYPE_MOTION events, that will be dropped later and they won't get
into user-space.
Regression was introduced by hunk 5 and 6 of 5ea5254aa0ad269cfbd2875c973ef25ab5b5e9db

coordinates").
Driver on restore should ask xen for request-abs-pointer again if it is
available. So restore parts that did it before 5ea5254.

In raid5 plugging is used for 2 things:
1/ collecting writes that require a bitmap update
2/ collecting writes in the hope that we can create full
stripes - or at least more-full.
We now release these different sets of stripes when plug_cnt
is zero.
Also in make_request, we call mddev_check_plug to hopefully increase
plug_cnt, and wake up the thread at the end if plugging wasn't
achieved for some reason.
md: provide generic support for handling unplug callbacks.
When an md device adds a request to a queue, it can call
mddev_check_plugged.
If this succeeds then we know that the md thread will be woken up
shortly, and ->plug_cnt will be non-zero until then, so some
processing can be delayed.
If it fails, then no unplug callback is expected and the make_request
function needs to do whatever is required to make the request happen.
md has some plugging infrastructure for RAID5 to use because the
normal plugging infrastructure required a 'request_queue', and when
called from dm, RAID5 doesn't have one of those available.
This relied on the ->unplug_fn callback which doesn't exist any more.
So remove all of that code, both in md and raid5. Subsequent patches
with restore the plugging functionality.
