Problem:
When programming the Divisor Latch registers, Low and High (DLL and

take effect. The result is an incorrect baud rate.
Workaround:
After programming the first Divisor Latch register, read and verify
it before programming the second Divisor Latch register.
This was hit when changing the baud rate from 115200 to 9600 while
receiving characters at 9600 Bd.

xfs: Wrapped journal record corruption on read at recovery
Summary of problem:
If a journal record wraps at the physical end of the journal, it has to be
read in two parts in xlog_do_recovery_pass(): a read at the physical end and a
read at the physical beginning. If xlog_bread() has to re-align the first
read, the second read request does not take that re-alignment into account.
If the first read was re-aligned, the second read over-writes the end of the
data from the first read, effectively corrupting it. This can happen either
when reading the record header or reading the record data.
The first sanity check in xlog_recover_process_data() is to check for a valid
clientid, so that is the error reported.
Summary of fix:
If there was a first read at the physical end, XFS_BUF_PTR() returns where the
data was requested to begin. Conversely, because it is the result of
xlog_align(), offset indicates where the requested data for the first read
actually begins - whether or not xlog_bread() has re-aligned it.
Using offset as the base for the calculation of where to place the second read
data ensures that it will be correctly placed immediately following the data
from the first read instead of sometimes over-writing the end of it.
The attached patch has resolved the reported problem of occasional inability
to recover the journal (reporting "bad clientid").

xfs: reset the i_iolock lock class in the reclaim path
The iolock is used for protecting reads, writes and block truncates
against each other. We have two classes of callers, the first one is
induced by a file operation and requires a reference to the inode be
held and not dropped after the operation is done:
- xfs_vm_vmap, xfs_vn_fallocate, xfs_read, xfs_write, xfs_splice_read,
xfs_splice_write and xfs_setattr are all implementations of VFS
methods that require a live inode
- xfs_getbmap and xfs_swap_extents are ioctl subcommand for which the
same is true
- xfs_truncate_file is only called on quota inodes just returned from
xfs_iget
- xfs_sync_inode_data does the lock just after an igrab()
- xfs_filestream_associate and xfs_filestream_new_ag take the iolock
on the parent inode of an inode which by VFS rules must be referenced
And we have various calls to truncate blocks past EOF or the whole
file when dropping the last reference to an inode. Unfortunately
lockdep complains when we do memory allocations that can recurse into
the filesystem in the first class because the second class happens to
take the same lock. To avoid this re-init the iolock in the beginning
of xfs_fs_clear_inode to get a new lock class.

but instead of just directly reclaiming the clean inode we go through
the whole process of marking the inode reclaimable just to directly
reclaim it from the calling context. Besides being overly complicated
this introduces a race where iget could recycle an inode between
marked reclaimable and actually being reclaimed leading to panics.
This patch gets rid of the existing reclaim path, and replaces it with
a simple call to xfs_ireclaim if the inode was clean. While we're at
it we also use the slightly more lax xfs_inode_clean check we'd use
later to determine if we need to flush the inode here.
Finally get rid of xfs_reclaim function and place the remaining small
bits of reclaim code directly into xfs_fs_destroy_inode.

firewire: ohci: handle receive packets with a data length of zero
Queueing to receive an ISO packet with a payload length of zero
silently does nothing in dualbuffer mode, and crashes the kernel in
packet-per-buffer mode. Return an error in dualbuffer mode, because
the DMA controller won't let us do what we want, and work correctly in
packet-per-buffer mode.

Staging: IIO: add selection of IIO_SW_RING to LIS3L02DQ as needed
Here I've kept the selection of IIO_SW_RING separate from
IIO_TRIGGER as it will go away fairly shortly when the ring buffer
type becomes configurable on a per device basis, whereas the
IIO_TRIGGER select will remain. Whether to retain the option to
remove the support for ring buffers entirely is one for after that
support is in place.

Staging: wlags49_h2: fix up signal levels
Adjusts the signal levels reported by the wlags49_h2 and wlags49_h25 staging
drivers. With the constants supplied by Agere the signal levels are always
poor, even in close proximity to the AP. The signals are now measured with
a real device. 100% for close proximity to the AP, 0% for the noice floor.
Now the levels shown by the NetworkManager gauge make sense.
Some magic numbers in the related code are replaced by the correct constants
from the wireless extension interface (wireless.h). Also the flag IW_QUAL_DBM
is now set, as specified in the wireless.h header file.
