The snd_compr_open function would always return 0 even if the compressed
ops open function failed, obviously this is incorrect. Looks like this
was introduced by a small typo in:

We have reports of heavy screen corruption if we try to use the stolen
memory reserved by the BIOS whilst the DMA-Remapper is active. This
quirk may be only specific to a few machines or BIOSes, but first lets
apply the big hammer and always disable use of stolen memory when DMAR
is active.

This reverts commit 56dd669a138c, which makes the GART visible in
/proc/iomem. This fixes a regression: e501b3d87f00 ("agp: Support 64-bit
APBASE") exposed an existing problem with a conflict between the GART
region and a PCI BAR region.
The GART addresses are bus addresses, not CPU addresses, and therefore
should not be inserted in iomem_resource.
On many machines, the GART region is addressable by the CPU as well as by
an AGP master, but CPU addressability is not required by the spec. On some
of these machines, the GART is mapped by a PCI BAR, and in that case, the
PCI core automatically inserts it into iomem_resource, just as it does for
all BARs.
Inserting it here means we'll have a conflict if the PCI core later tries
to claim the GART region, so let's drop the insertion here.
The conflict indirectly causes X failures, as reported by Jouni in the
bugzilla below. We detected the conflict even before e501b3d87f00, but
after it the AGP code (fix_northbridge()) uses the PCI resource (which is
zeroed because of the conflict) instead of reading the BAR again.

The bnx2/bnx2x rings are made up of linked pages. However there is an
upper limit on the page size as some the page size settings are 16-bit
in the hardware/firmware interface. In the current code, some parts
use BNX2_PAGE_SIZE which has a 16K upper limit and some parts use
PAGE_SIZE. On archs with >= 64K PAGE_SIZE, it generates some compile
warnings. Define a new CNIC_PAGE_SZIE which has an upper limit of
16K and use it consistently in all relevant parts.

For per device operations, cnic needs to dereference the RCU protected
cp->ulp_ops instead of the global cnic_ulp_tbl. In 2 locations,
cnic_send_nlmsg() and cnic_copy_ulp_stats(), it was referencing the
global table. If the device has been unregistered and these functions
are still being called (very unlikely scenarios), it could lead to NULL

This is a context modified revert of commit 6a9612e2cb22
("net: cdc_ncm: remove ncm_parm field") which introduced
a NCM specification violation, causing setup errors for
some devices. These errors resulted in the device and
host disagreeing about shared settings, with complete
failure to communicate as the end result.
The NCM specification require that many of the NCM specific
control reuests are sent only while the NCM Data Interface
is in alternate setting 0. Reverting the commit ensures that
we follow this requirement.

In ip6_append_data_mtu(), when the xfrm mode is not tunnel(such as
transport),the ipsec header need to be added in the first fragment, so the mtu
will decrease to reserve space for it, then the second fragment come, the mtu
should be turn back, as the commit 0c1833797a5a6ec23ea9261d979aa18078720b74
said. however, in the commit a493e60ac4bbe2e977e7129d6d8cbb0dd236be, it use
*mtu = min(*mtu, ...) to change the mtu, which lead to the new mtu is alway
equal with the first fragment's. and cannot turn back.
when I test through ping6 -c1 -s5000 $ip (mtu=1280):
...frag (0|1232) ESP(spi=0x00002000,seq=0xb), length 1232

it is possible to end up with a configuration that fails to build with the
following error:

This is due to CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER defaulting to 11. It already has

Commit 597ce1723e0f "MIPS: Support for 64-bit FP with O32 binaries"
introduced support for setting Status.FR=1 for O32 binaries with the
EF_MIPS_FP64 ELF header flag set. Whilst this flag is currently
supported by binutils it does introduce an ABI break within userland.
Objects built with EF_MIPS_FP64 cannot be safely linked with those built
without it since code in either object may assume behaviour specific to
a value of FR.
More recently there has been discussion around avoiding further
fragmentation of the O32 ABI whilst still allowing the use of FR=1 and
features such as MSA which depend upon it. Details of the plan to allow
this are still being worked on, and whilst the kernel will need the
ability to handle FR=1 with O32 tasks it is unclear what else it may
need to provide to a userland which seeks to avoid another ABI break. In
order to prevent the proliferation of userland which may rely upon the
current EF_MIPS_FP64 behaviour this patch marks the kernel support for
it experimental & disables it by default. Under current proposals it is
likely that this support can simply be enabled again later, but possibly
after the introduction of further interfaces with userland and support
for the MIPS R5 UFR feature.

While testing and documenting the msgrcv() MSG_COPY flag that Stanislav
Kinsbursky added in commit 4a674f34ba04 ("ipc: introduce message queue
copy feature" => kernel 3.8), I discovered a couple of bugs in the
implementation. The two bugs concern MSG_COPY interactions with other
msgrcv() flags, namely:
(A) MSG_COPY + MSG_EXCEPT
(B) MSG_COPY + !IPC_NOWAIT
The bugs are distinct (and the fix for the first one is obvious),
however my fix for both is a single-line patch, which is why I'm
combining them in a single mail, rather than writing two mails+patches.
===== (A) MSG_COPY + MSG_EXCEPT =====
With the addition of the MSG_COPY flag, there are now two msgrcv()
flags--MSG_COPY and MSG_EXCEPT--that modify the meaning of the 'msgtyp'
argument in unrelated ways. Specifying both in the same call is a
logical error that is currently permitted, with the effect that MSG_COPY
has priority and MSG_EXCEPT is ignored. The call should give an error
if both flags are specified. The patch below implements that behavior.
===== (B) (B) MSG_COPY + !IPC_NOWAIT =====
The test code that was submitted in commit 3a665531a3b7 ("selftests: IPC
message queue copy feature test") shows MSG_COPY being used in
conjunction with IPC_NOWAIT. In other words, if there is no message at
the position 'msgtyp'. return immediately with the error in ENOMSG.
What was not (fully) tested is the behavior if MSG_COPY is specified
*without* IPC_NOWAIT, and there is an odd behavior. If the queue
contains less than 'msgtyp' messages, then the call blocks until the
next message is written to the queue. At that point, the msgrcv() call
returns a copy of the newly added message, regardless of whether that
message is at the ordinal position 'msgtyp'. This is clearly bogus, and
problematic for applications that might want to make use of the MSG_COPY
flag.
I considered the following possible solutions to this problem:
(1) Force the call to block until a message *does* appear at the
position 'msgtyp'.
(2) If the MSG_COPY flag is specified, the kernel should implicitly add
IPC_NOWAIT, so that the call fails with ENOMSG for this case.
(3) If the MSG_COPY flag is specified, but IPC_NOWAIT is not, generate
an error (probably, EINVAL is the right one).
I do not know if any application would really want to have the
functionality of solution (1), especially since an application can
determine in advance the number of messages in the queue using msgctl()
IPC_STAT. Obviously, this solution would be the most work to implement.
Solution (2) would have the effect of silently fixing any applications
that tried to employ broken behavior. However, it would mean that if we
later decided to implement solution (1), then user-space could not
easily detect what the kernel supports (but, since I'm somewhat doubtful
that solution (1) is needed, I'm not sure that this is much of a
problem).
Solution (3) would have the effect of informing broken applications that
they are doing something broken. The downside is that this would cause
a ABI breakage for any applications that are currently employing the
broken behavior. However:
a) Those applications are almost certainly not getting the results they
expect.
b) Possibly, those applications don't even exist, because MSG_COPY is
currently hidden behind CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.
The upside of solution (3) is that if we later decided to implement
solution (1), user-space could determine what the kernel supports, via
the error return.
In my view, solution (3) is mildly preferable to solution (2), and
solution (1) could still be done later if anyone really cares. The
patch below implements solution (3).
PS. For anyone out there still listening, it's the usual story:
documenting an API (and the thinking about, and the testing of the API,
that documentation entails) is the one of the single best ways of
finding bugs in the API, as I've learned from a lot of experience. Best
to do that documentation before releasing the API.

====================
Please pull these last(?) few wireless bits intended for the 3.14
stream. Each is here to address a problem found with a patch already
merged...
Dave Jones gives us a memory leak fix, for an error path in brcmfmac.
Felix Fietkau moves a small delay to make it actually reachable.
Helmut Schaa fixes an ath9k sequence numbering problem for non-data
frames.
Stanislaw Gruszka reverts an earlier fix that was found to cause

Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"Three of these are regression fixes, for two recent regressions and
one introduced during the 3.13 cycle, and the fourth one is a working
version of the fix that had to be reverted last time.
Specifics:
- A recent ACPI resources handling fix overlooked the fact that it
had to update the ACPI PNP subsystem's resources parsing too and
caused confusing warning messages to be printed during system
intialization on some systems (with arguably buggy ACPI tables).
Fix from Zhang Rui.
- Moving the early ACPI initialization before timekeeping_init()
earlier in this cycle broke fast TSC calibration on at least one
system, so it needs to be done later, but still before
efi_enter_virtual_mode() to allow the EFI initialization to refer
to ACPI.
- A change related to code duplication reduction in the cpufreq core
inadvertently caused cpufreq intialization to fail for some CPUs
handled by intel_pstate by adding checks that may fail for that
driver, but aren't even necessary when it is used. The issue is
addressed by preventing those checks from run in the configurations
in which they aren't needed.
- If the Hardware Reduced ACPI flag is set in the ACPI tables, system
suspend, hibernation and ACPI power off will only work when special
sleep control and sleep status registeres are provided (their
addresses in the ACPI tables are not zero). If those registers are
not available, the features in question have no chances to work, so
they shouldn't even be regarded as supported. That helps with
power off in particular, because alternative power off methods may
be used then and they may actually work"
* tag 'pm+acpi-3.14-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm:
ACPI / sleep: Add extra checks for HW Reduced ACPI mode sleep states

Bar type OCTEON_DMA_BAR_TYPE_SMALL assigns lo and hi addresses and
then falls through to OCTEON_DMA_BAR_TYPE_BIG that re-assignes lo and
hi addresses with totally different values. Add a break so we don't
fall through.

introduced references to two undefined Kconfig macros. CONFIG_MIPS32_R2
should clearly be replaced with CONFIG_CPU_MIPS32_R2. And CONFIG_MIPS64
should be replaced with CONFIG_64BIT.
