struct als_data *data is not used in this driver at all. Also add a missing ">" character for MODULE_AUTHOR. Signed-off-by: Axel Lin Acked-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

sgi-xpc: XPC fails to discover partitions with all nasids above 128

2010-11-24T21:50:40Z

UV hardware defines 256 memory protection regions versus the baseline 64 with increasing size for the SN2 ia64. This was overlooked when XPC was modified to accomodate both UV and SN2. Without this patch, a user could reconfigure their existing system and suddenly disable cross-partition communications with no indication of what has gone wrong. It also prevents larger configurations from using cross-partition communication. Signed-off-by: Robin Holt Cc: Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

i2c: Remove obsolete cleanup for clientdata

2010-11-15T21:40:38Z

A few new i2c-drivers came into the kernel which clear the clientdata-pointer on exit. This is obsolete meanwhile, so fix it and hope the word will spread. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang Acked-by: Alan Cox Acked-by: Guennadi Liakhovetski Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

drivers/misc/bh1770glc.c: error handling in bh1770_power_state_store()

2010-11-12T15:55:31Z

There was a signedness bug so "ret" was never less than zero and that breaks the error handling. Also in the original code it would overwrite ret and the result is still negative but it's bogus number instead of the correct error code.

drivers/misc/apds9802als.c: fix signedness bug

2010-11-12T15:55:31Z

i2c_smbus_read_byte_data() may return negative error code. This is not seen to als_sensing_range_store() as the result is stored in unsigned int. Made it signed.

misc/isl29020: signedness bug in als_sensing_range_store()

2010-11-12T15:55:31Z

"ret_val" is supposed to be signed here or the error handling breaks. Also we should check the return value from i2c_smbus_read_byte_data(). Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

kgdbts: prevent re-entry to kgdbts before it unregisters

2010-10-29T18:14:41Z

The "kgdb_connected" variable of debug_core just indicates whether or not kgdbts is connected to the debug_core. It does not completely prevent a script from trying invoke kgdbts again and possibly crashing the system (see Call Trace below). The configured variable in kgtbts can be used instead of kgdb_connected instead of kgdb_connected. The cleanup_kgdbts() can also be removed because there is no possible way to build kgdbts as a kernel module that you could unload with rmmod.
