Impact: disable preemption when calling sched_clock()
The ring_buffer_time_stamp still uses sched_clock as its counter.
But it is a bug to call it with preemption enabled. This requirement
should not be pushed to the ring_buffer_time_stamp callers, so
the ring_buffer_time_stamp needs to disable preemption when calling
sched_clock.

Impact: enable/disable ring buffer recording API added
Several kernel developers have requested that there be a way to stop
recording into the ring buffers with a simple switch that can also
be enabled from userspace. This patch addes a new kernel API to the
ring buffers called:
tracing_on()
tracing_off()
When tracing_off() is called, all ring buffers will not be able to record
into their buffers.
tracing_on() will enable the ring buffers again.
These two act like an on/off switch. That is, there is no counting of the
number of times tracing_off or tracing_on has been called.
A new file is added to the debugfs/tracing directory called
tracing_on
This allows for userspace applications to also flip the switch.
echo 0 > debugfs/tracing/tracing_on
disables the tracing.
echo 1 > /debugfs/tracing/tracing_on
enables it.
Note, this does not disable or enable any tracers. It only sets or clears
a flag that needs to be set in order for the ring buffers to write to
their buffers. It is a global flag, and affects all ring buffers.
The buffers start out with tracing_on enabled.
There are now three flags that control recording into the buffers:
tracing_on: which affects all ring buffer tracers.
buffer->record_disabled: which affects an allocated buffer, which may be set
if an anomaly is detected, and tracing is disabled.
cpu_buffer->record_disabled: which is set by tracing_stop() or if an
anomaly is detected. tracing_start can not reenable this if
an anomaly occurred.
The userspace debugfs/tracing/tracing_enabled is implemented with
tracing_stop() but the user space code can not enable it if the kernel
called tracing_stop().
Userspace can enable the tracing_on even if the kernel disabled it.
It is just a switch used to stop tracing if a condition was hit.
tracing_on is not for protecting critical areas in the kernel nor is
it for stopping tracing if an anomaly occurred. This is because userspace
can reenable it at any time.
Side effect: With this patch, I discovered a dead variable in ftrace.c
called tracing_on. This patch removes it.

There already is an report at kernel bugzilla about this issue:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9455
When enabling extra checks for the i2c-bus of cx88 based cards by
loading i2c_algo_bit with bit_test=1 this may trigger an oops
when loading cx88_dvb.
This is caused by the extra check code that detects that the
sda-line is stuck high and thus does not register the i2c-bus.
cx88-dvb however does not check if the i2c-bus is valid and just
uses core->i2c_adap to attach dvb frontend modules.
This leads to an oops at the first call to i2c_transfer:

Impact: driver could possibly stomp on resources outside of its scope

authored by Suresh Siddha. Due to that, I'm applying the one that has

both patches, since they are both interesting}
Suresh Siddha commented:

BAR base is located in the middle of the 4K page and the hardcoded
size argument makes the request span two pages causing the conflict.
Fix the hard coded size argument in ioremap().
Andy Burns commented:
I have already sent this patch on the linux-dvb list, but it didn't get
much attention, so re-sending direct, I hope you all don't mind.
While attempting to run mythtv in a xen domU, I encountered problems
loading the driver for my saa7134 card, with an error from ioremap().
This error was due to the driver allocating an incorrectly sized mmio
area, which was trapped by xen's permission checks, but this would go
un-noticed on a kernel without xen.
My card has a 1K sized mmio area, I've had information that other cards
have 2K areas, perhaps others have different sizes, yet the driver
always attempts to map 4K. I realise that the granularity of mapping is
the page size, which typically would be 4K, but unless the card's base
address happens to fall on a 4K boundary (mine does not) then the
base+4K will end up spanning two pages, and this is when the error
occurs under xen.
My patch uses the pci_resource_len macro to determine the size required
for the user's particular card, instead of the hardcoded 4K value. I've
tested with a couple of printk() inside ioremap() that the start address
and size do get rounded to the closest page boundary.
With this patch I am able to successfully load the saa7134 driver and
run mythtv under xen with my card, subject to correct pollirq settings
in case of shared IRQ, I am still seeing occasional DMA panics, which I
think are related to swiotlb handling by dom0/domU, usually the panic
occurs when changing mux, once tuned to a mux, 12 hour continuous
recordings are possible without errors.

This allows multiple gate_enable/disable's in the tuner_read/write

eventually leading to better results. As a side effect demods that
detect the STOP bit for auto closing of the gate can be avoided, thereby
a very minimal gain in disabling the auto detect feature as well.
