leds: bugfixes for leds-gpio
Three bugfixes to the leds-gpio driver, plus minor whitespace tweaks:
- Do the INIT_WORK() before registering each LED, so if its trigger
becomes immediately active it can schedule work without oopsing..
- Use normal registration, not platform_driver_probe(), so that
devices appearing "late" (hotplug type) can still be bound.
- Mark the driver remove code as "__devexit", preventing oopses
when the underlying device is removed.
These issues came up when using this driver with some GPIO expanders
living on serial busses, which act unlike "normal" platform devices:
they can appear and vanish along with the serial bus driver.

But it seems that many apps don't do this. They set the size using the fields
in the VIDIOCMCAPTURE ioctl. The driver doesn't know what size to capture
until it actually starts to capture. In particular, it doesn't know what size
to capture until it has already mmap the captured buffers. Which is quite
stupid. Why V4L1 has size and format fields for VIDIOCMCAPTURE I have no idea.
Many drivers don't support this, including those using v4l1-compat.
The bttv does, which is probably the only reason such broken software is so

But, the driver doesn't adjust its idea of what size is being captured when it

kbuild: do not pick up CFLAGS from the environment
Too many people have CFLAGS set to support building userspace.
And now Kbuild picks up CFLAGS this caused troubles.
Although people should realise that setting CFLAGS has
a 'global' effect the impact on the kernel build is a suprise.
So change kbuild to pick up value from KCFLAGS that is
much less used.
When kbuild pick up a value it will warn like this:
Makefile:544: "WARNING: Appending $KCFLAGS (-O3) from environment to kernel $CFLAGS"

[SCSI] ibmvscsi: Prevent IO during partner login
By setting the request_limit in send_srp_login to 1 we allowed login
requests to be sent to the server adapter. If this was not an initial
login, but was a login after a disconnect with the server, other I/O
requests could attempt to be processed before the login occured. These
I/O requests would fail, sometimes resulting in filesystems getting
marked read-only.
To address this we can set the request_limit to 0 while doing the login
and add an exception where login requests, along with task management
events, are always passed to the server.
There is a case where the request_limit had already reached 0 would result
in all events being sent rather than returning SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY; this
has also been fixed by this patch.

libata: don't configure downstream links faster than the upstream link
There's nothing to be gained by configuring downstream links faster
than the upstream link and such configurations cause problems on

libata: request PHY speed configuration on SControl access failure
In sata_set_spd_needed(), if SControl read failed, it returned 0 and
skipped PHY speed configuration. However, if SControl access fails,
it's far more logical to request PHY speed configuration. Reverse the

libata: consider errors not associated with commands for speed down
libata EH used to ignore errors not associated with commands when
determining whether speed down is necessary or not. This leads to the
following problems.
* Errors not associated with commands can occur indefinitely without
libata EH taking corrective actions.
* Upstream link errors don't trigger speed down when PMP is attached
to it and commands issued to downstream device trigger errors on the
upstream link.
This patch makes ata_eh_link_autopsy() consider errors not associated
with command for speed down.
