[media] media, tlg2300: Fix memory leak in alloc_bulk_urbs_generic()
Hi,
While reading
drivers/media/video/tlg2300/pd-video.c::alloc_bulk_urbs_generic() I
noticed that
- We don't free the memory allocated to 'urb' if the call to
usb_alloc_coherent() fails.
- If the 'num' argument to the function is ever <= 0 we'll return an
uninitialized variable 'i' to the caller.
The following patch addresses both of the above by a) calling
usb_free_urb() when usb_alloc_coherent() fails and by explicitly
initializing 'i' to zero.
I also moved the variables 'mem' and 'urb' inside the for loop. This does
not actually make any difference, it just seemed more correct to me to let
variables exist only in the innermost scope they are used.

Renamed has_new to is_new.
Drivers can use the is_new field to determine if a new value was specified
for a control. The v4l2_ctrl_handler_setup() must always set this to 1 since
the setup has to force a full update of all controls.
Some subdevs need to call into the board code after they are registered
and have a valid struct v4l2_device pointer. The s_config op was abused
for this, but now that it is removed we need a cleaner way of solving this.
So this patch adds a struct with internal ops that the v4l2 core can call.
Currently only two ops exist: register and unregister. Subdevs can implement
these to call the board code and pass it the v4l2_device pointer, which the
board code can then use to get access to the struct that embeds the
v4l2_device.
It is expected that in the future open and close ops will also be added.

[media] v4l2-subdev: remove core.s_config and v4l2_i2c_new_subdev_cfg()
The core.s_config op was meant for legacy drivers that needed to work with old
pre-2.6.26 kernels. This is no longer relevant. Unfortunately, this op was
incorrectly called from several drivers.
Replace those occurences with proper i2c_board_info structs and call
v4l2_i2c_new_subdev_board.
After these changes v4l2_i2c_new_subdev_cfg() was no longer used, so remove
that function as well.
This is hacky and ugly. However, I coldn't find any easy way to fix it.
A proper fix would be to have a resource locking schema, used by both
V4L and DVB parts that would block access to analog registers while
digital registers are in use, but this will probably put tda829x into
a dead lock.
[media] mb86a20s: Be sure that device is initialized before starting DVB
Due to a hard to track bug between tda829x/tda18271/saa7134, tda829x
wants to go to analog mode during DVB initialization, causing some
I2C errors.
The analog failure doesn't cause any harm, as the device were already
properly initialized in analog mode. However, the failure at the digital
mode causes the frontend mb86a20s to not initialize. Fortunately, at
least on my tests, it was possible to detect that the device is a
mb86a20s before the failure.
What happens is that tda8290 is a very bad boy: during DVB setup, it
keeps insisting to call tda18271 analog_set_params, that calls
tune_agc code. The tune_agc code calls saa7134 driver, changing the
value of GPIO 27, switching from digital to analog mode and disabling
the access to mb86a20s, as, on Kworld SBTVD, the same GPIO used
to switch the hardware AGC mode seems to be used to enable the I2C
switch that allows access to the frontend (mb86a20s).
So, a call to analog_set_params ultimately disables the access to
the frontend, and causes a failure at the init frontend logic.
This patch is a workaround for this issue: it simply checks if the
frontend init had any failure. If so, it will init the frontend when
some DTV application will try to set DVB mode.
Even being a hack for Kworld SBTVD to work, and assumning that we could
teach tda8290 to be a good boy, this is actually an improvement at the
frontend driver, as it will be more reliable to initialization failures.
This happens because some I2C callbacks actually depend on having the
driver entirely initialized. To avoid this OOPS, just clean the I2C
callbacks, as if no device were detected.

[media] gspca_sonixj: Probe sensor type independent of bridge type
Looking at the windows inf file, for usb ids with a sensor type where probing
is needed to determine the type (for example ov7630 or soi768), this is
needed for all bridge variants with a usb id indicating this sensor type.
So do the probing to determine the actual sensor type for types where the
usb-id info is not 100% deterministic, independent of the bridge type.
If you look through the list of currently active usb ids in sonixj, this
effectively only changes the code path for 0c45:60fe (sn9c105 + ov7630) and
0c45:612e (sn9c110 + ov7630), which according to the inf file can have a
soi768 instead of a ov7630 just like the sn9c120 + ov7630 models where we
already probe for a soi7630.
The main reason for this code change is to keep the code paths as bridge
variant independent as possible, so that we don't need a lot of special
per bridge cases, as we enable more usb-ids in the future.
This change makes the 0c45:60fe code path identical to the successfully
tested 0c45:613e, so also make sonixj the default driver for 0c45:60fe.

MIPS: Use WARN() in uasm for better diagnostics.
On the off chance that uasm ever warns about overflow, there is no way
to know what the offending instruction is.
Change the printks to WARNs, so we can get a nice stack trace. It has
the added benefit of being much more noticeable than the short single
line warning message, so is less likely to be ignored.

MIPS: Use BBIT instructions in TLB handlers
If the CPU supports BBIT0 and BBIT1, use them in TLB handlers as they
are more efficient than an AND followed by an branch and then
restoring the clobbered register.

MIPS: Add generic support for multiple machines within a single kernel
This patch adds a generic solution to support multiple machines based on
a given SoC within a single kernel image. It is implemented already for
several other architectures but MIPS has no generic support for that yet.
[Ralf: This competes with DT but DT is a much more complex solution and this
code has been used by OpenWRT for a long time so for now DT is a bad reason
to stop the merge but longer term this should be migrated to DT.]
