From a140b98dcd9843f2e21091f2b64f10905150be16 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thierry Reding Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2012 17:17:30 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] pwm-backlight: take over maintenance Since the pwm-backlight driver is lacking a proper maintainer and is the heaviest user of the PWM framework I'm taking over maintenance.

This confuses fprop_new_period(), which uses unsigned type and as a result number of events is set to big *positive* number. From that moment on, things go pear shaped and can result e.g. in division by zero as denominator is later truncated to 32-bits. This bug causes a divide-by-zero oops in bdi_dirty_limit() in Borislav's 3.6.0-rc6 based kernel. Fix the issue by using a signed type in fprop_new_period(). That makes us bail out from the function without doing anything (mistakenly) thinking there are no events to age. That makes aging somewhat inaccurate but getting accurate data would be rather hard.

This causes a build error for no-MMU systems: kernel/sys.c: In function 'prctl_set_mm': kernel/sys.c:1868:34: error: 'mmap_min_addr' undeclared (first use in this function) The test for mmap_min_addr doesn't make a lot of sense for no-MMU code as noted in commit 6e1415467614 ("NOMMU: Optimise away the {dac_,}mmap_min_addr tests"). This patch defines mmap_min_addr as 0UL in the no-MMU case so that the compiler will optimize away tests for "addr < mmap_min_addr".
