hwmon: New driver sch5636
This patch adds a new driver for SMSC SCH5636 Super I/O chips.
The chips include an embedded microcontroller for hardware monitoring
solutions, allowing motherboard manufacturers to create their own
custom hwmon solution based upon the SCH5636.
Currently the sch5636 driver only supports the Fujitsu Theseus SCH5636
based hwmon solution. The sch5636 driver runs a sanity check on
loading to ensure it is dealing with a Fujitsu Theseus and not with
another custom SCH5636 based hwmon solution.

i2c: Allow i2c_add_numbered_adapter() to assign a bus id
Currently, if an i2c bus driver supports both static and dynamic bus
ids, it needs to choose between calling i2c_add_numbered_adapter() and
i2c_add_adapter(). This patch makes i2c_add_numbered_adapter()
redirect to i2c_add_adapter() if the requested bus id is -1.

The problem is that lookup_one_len calls __lookup_hash
with nd pointer as NULL. Then __lookup_hash calls
do_revalidate in the case when dentry exists and we end
up with NULL pointer deference in cifs_d_revalidate:
if (nd->flags & LOOKUP_RCU)
return -ECHILD;
Fix this by checking nd for NULL.

We should only include support for the ISA interface of the LM78/LM79

ports on these architectures.

NFSv4: Don't use the delegation->inode in nfs_mark_return_delegation()
nfs_mark_return_delegation() is usually called without any locking, and
so it is not safe to dereference delegation->inode. Since the inode is

nfs: don't use d_move in nfs_async_rename_done
If the task that initiated the sillyrename ends up being killed by a
fatal signal, then it will eventually return back to userspace and end
up releasing the i_mutex. d_move however needs to be done while holding
the i_mutex.
Instead of using d_move here, just unhash the old and new dentries to
prevent them from being found by lookups. With this change though, the
dentries are now incorrect post-rename and do not reflect the actual
name of the file on the server. I'm proceeding under the assumption
that since they are unhashed that this isn't really a problem.
In order for the sillydelete to still work though, the dname must be
copied earlier when setting up the sillydelete info, and the name must
be recopied if the sillydelete info has to be moved to a new dentry.

check that doesn't need to load the inode->i_op->check_acl pointer at
all for the common cached case.
The filesystems also don't need to check for a non-blocking RCU walk
case in their acl_check() functions, because that is all handled at a
