a08b6b7968 [PATCH] Kconfig fix (BLK_DEV_FD dependencies)
Sanitized and fixed floppy dependencies: split the messy dependencies for
BLK_DEV_FD by introducing a new symbol (ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_FDC), making
BLK_DEV_FD depend on that one and taking declarations of ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_FDC
to arch/*/Kconfig.  While we are at it, fixed several obvious cases when
BLK_DEV_FD should have been excluded (architectures lacking asm/floppy.h
are *not* going to have floppy.c compile, let alone work).

If you can come up with better name for that ("this architecture might
have working PC-compatible floppy disk controller"), you are more than
welcome - just s/ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_FDC/your_prefered_name/g in the patch
below...

dc9ca2af49 [PATCH] DVB: lgdt330x check callback fix
Most of the patch is whitespace cleanup, but more importantly, this patch
checks to see whether a callback is set before calling it.  On cx88 boards
(currently the only boards using lgdt330x in 2.6.13) every callback is set.
However, newer drivers currently in development leave a callback undefined,
and lgdt330x must not call it if it isn't defined.

2684f5c74d [PATCH] DVB: Clarify description text for dvb-bt8xx in Kconfig
Patrick Keene wrote to the linux-dvb list, asking where in menuconfig he
can enable dvb-bt8xx for his AVerMedia DVB card.  I pointed the following
out to him:

config DVB_BT8XX
       tristate "Nebula/Pinnacle PCTV/Twinhan PCI cards"

It has been agreed upon that this description is extremely misleading.

This patch changes the one-liner description text of dvb-bt8xx to something
more meaningful, and adds AVerMedia to the detailed description.

505db03639 [PATCH] Fix smsc_ircc_init return value
I noticed a strange return value in smsc_ircc_init in
drivers/net/irda/smsc_ircc2.c in rc4-mm1.

When reaching the line "if (ircc_fir > 0 && ircc_sir > 0)", ret is 0.  So I
don't see the point of setting it to 0 in the "else" case.  >From what I
see in 2.6.12 it should probably be set to -ENODEV at the begining of the
"else" case.  The attached patch does this.

Note that I didn't actually see any breakage caused by this.

aac51f09d9 [PATCH] w100fb: Rewrite for platform independence
The code w100fb was based on was horribly Sharp SL-C7x0 specific and there
was little else that could be done as I had no access to anything else with
a w100 in it.  There is no real documentation about this chipset available.

Ian Molton has access to other platforms with the w100 (Toshiba e-series)
and so between us, we've improved w100fb and made it platform independent.
Ian Molton also added support for the very similar w3220 and w3200
chipsets.

There are a lot of changes here and it nearly amounts to a rewrite of the
driver but it has been extensively tested and is being used in preference
to the original driver in the Zaurus community.  I'd therefore like to
update the mainline code to reflect this.

335eadf2ef [PATCH] sd: initialize SD cards
Support for the Secure Digital protocol in the MMC layer.

A summary of the legal issues surrounding SD cards, as understood by yours
truly:

Members of the Secure Digital Association, hereafter SDA, are required to sign
a NDA[1] before given access to any specifications.  It has been speculated
that including an SD implementation would forbid these members to redistribute
Linux.  This is the basic problem with SD support so it is unclear if it even
is a problem since it has no effect on those of us that aren't members.

The SDA doesn't seem to enforce these rules though since the patches included
here are based on documentation made public by some of the members.  The most
complete specs[2] are actually released by Sandisk, one of the founding
companies of the SDA.

Because of this the NDA is considered a non-issue by most involved in the
discussions concerning these patches.  It might be that the SDA is only
interested in protecting the so called "secure" bits of SD, which so far
hasn't been found in any public spec.  (The card is split into two sections,
one "normal" and one "secure" which has an access scheme similar to TPM:s).

(As a side note, Microsoft is working to make things easier for us since they
want to be able to include the source code for a SD driver in one of their
development kits.  HP is making sure that the new NDA will allow a Linux
implementation.  So far only the SDIO specs have been opened up[3].  More will
hopefully follow.)

 [1] http://www.sdcard.org/membership/images/ippolicy.pdf
 [2] http://www.sandisk.com/pdf/oem/ProdManualSDCardv1.9.pdf
 [3] http://www.sdcard.org/sdio/Simplified%20SDIO%20Card%20Specification.pdf

This patch contains the central parts of the SD support.  If no MMC cards are
found on a bus then the MMC layer proceeds looking for SD cards.  Helper
functions are extended to handle the special needs of SD cards.

The IPMI power control function proc_write_chassctrl was badly written, it
directly used userspace pointers, it assumed that strings were NULL

using the sysctl interface for this data and changes the semantics to be a
little more logical.

they do implement the standard poweroff and powercycle commands.

Tested on RHEL3 kernel 2.4.21-20.ELsmp on a PowerEdge 2600.  The standard
ipmi_poweroff driver cannot drive these systems.  With this patch, they
power off or powercycle as expected.

56a55ec648 [PATCH] ipmi: fix panic ipmb response
The "null message handler" in the IPMI driver is used in startup and panic
situations to handle messages.  It was only designed to work with messages
from the local management controller, but in some cases it was used to get
messages from remote managmenet controllers, and the system would then
panic.  This patch makes the "null message handler" in the IPMI driver more
general so it works with any kind of message.

1fdd75bd6c [PATCH] ipmi: clean up versioning of the IPMI driver
This adds MODULE_VERSION, MODULE_DESCRIPTION, and MODULE_AUTHOR tags to the
IPMI driver modules.  Also changes the MODULE_VERSION to remove the
prepended 'v' on each value, consistent with the module versioning policy.

This patch also removes all the version information from everything except
the ipmi_msghandler module.

3ae0e0f9b1 [PATCH] ipmi: OEM flag handling and hacks for some Dell machines
The ipmi driver does not have a way to handle firmware-generated events
which have the OEM[012] Data Available flags set.  In such a case, the
SMS_ATN bit may never get cleared by firmware, leaving the driver looping
infinitely but never able to make any progress.

This patch first simplifies storage and use of the data returned from an
IPMI Get Device ID command.

It then creates a new per-OEM handler hook, which should know how to handle
events with the OEM[012] Data Available flags set.  It then uses this to
implement a workaround for IPMI 1.5-capable Dell PowerEdge servers which
are susceptable to setting the OEM[012] Data Available flags when the
driver can't handle it.
