Fix atomicity of TIF update in flush_thread() for sparc64
Fixes correctly the race by using *_ti_thread_flag.
Race :
parent process executing :
sys_ptrace()
(lock_kernel())
(ptrace_get_task_struct(pid))
arch_ptrace()
ptrace_detach()
ptrace_disable(child);
clear_singlestep(child);
clear_tsk_thread_flag(child, TIF_SINGLESTEP);
(which clears the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag atomically from a different
process)
(put_task_struct(child))
(unlock_kernel())
And at the same time, in the child process :
sys_execve()
do_execve()
search_binary_handler()
load_elf_binary()
flush_old_exec()
flush_thread()
doing a non-atomic thread flag update

Delay the read of the EC status register until
after the event that caused it occurs -- otherwise
it is possible to read and act on stale status that was
associated with the previous event.
Do this with a perpetually incrementing "event_count" to detect
when a new event occurs and it is safe to read status.
There is no workaround for polling mode -- it is inherently
exposed to reading and acting on stale status, since it
doesn't have an interrupt to tell it the event completed.

Kernel unaligned access at TPC[1000c9e4] ehci_hub_control+0x54c/0x68c [ehci_hcd]
Despite of the comment in the patched code, the type cast used there
does make unaligned access. The fix was made as it's done in

Here is a patch adding the PID for the FT232RL to ftdi_sio. The patch
generates a warning during compilation because get_ftdi_divisor doesn't
explicitly handle the FT232RL with this patch, so I guess you don't want
to use it in its current state. It is all I could come up with with the
knowledge I have of the drivers at the moment, though, and I hope you
can have some use for it at least. It works fine with my DLP-TILT with
an FT232RL.

I encountered some problems with the airprime driver in use with a Novatel
Merlin XU870:
Closing an open Connection to e.g. /dev/ttyUSB0 doesn't reset the
RTS/DTR lines of the Modem. Consequently, when I use minicom to
establish a connection by "ATD*99#" the modem doesn't hang up even if i
exit minicom and so I cannot reuse the modem unless I remove it and plug
it in again.
With the attached patch, the RTS/DTR lines are resetted on a close. The
code was mainly taken from the option.c driver.
Convert all the port specific code in attach / shutdown to use the new
port_probe / port_register callbacks from device_register /
device_unregister allowing adding the sysfs attributes to be added at
the correct time and to the serial port device itself, instead of to
the unadorned usb device, avoiding a NULL dereference.

I've developed some devices with FTDI chips (FT232xx). FTDI was so kind
to give some own PID's which I can use together with their VID. Some of
the devices are already very popular here and I have customers from
universities, institutes .....
I use the FTDI VID 0x0403. My PID's are:
0xff38 - IBS US485 (USB<-->RS422/485 interface)
0xff39 - IBS PIC-Programmer
0xff3a - IBS Card reader for PCMCIA SRAM-cards
0xff3b - IBS PK1 - Particel counter
0xff3c - IBS RS232 - Monitor
0xff3d - APP 70 (dust monitoring system)
0xff3e - IBS PEDO-Modem (RF modem 868.35 MHz)
0xff3f - future device
The company is "IBS Ing.-Buero Schleusener".

This patch (as863) fixes a problem encountered sometimes when resuming
a port on a UHCI controller. The hardware may turn off the
Resume-Detect bit before turning off the Suspend bit, leading usbcore
to think that the port is still suspended and the resume has failed.
The patch makes uhci_finish_suspend() wait until both bits are safely
off.

This patch (as862) fixes a couple of bugs in the way usbcore handles
intervals for interrupt URBs. usb_interrupt_msg (and usb_bulk_msg for
backward compatibility) don't set the interval correctly for
high-speed devices. proc_do_submiturb() doesn't set it correctly when
a bulk URB is submitted to an interrupt endpoint.

IMHO, ACPI disabled due to DMI failure or blacklisted year should be noted,
as is done with other ACPI blacklisting.
This will help people troubleshoot when ACPI isn't working. Status quo is

implements ACPI but not DMI. This is actually fairly common on embedded
