The "gsmi" driver bridges userland with firmware specific routines for
accessing hardware.
Currently, this driver only supports NVRAM and eventlog information.
Deprecated functions have been removed from the driver, though their
op-codes are left in place so that they are not re-used.
This driver works by trampolining into the firmware via the smi_command
outlined in the FADT table. Three protocols are used due to various
limitations over time, but all are included herein.
This driver should only ever load on Google boards, identified by either
a "Google, Inc." board vendor string in DMI, or "GOOGLE" in the OEM
strings of the FADT ACPI table. This logic happens in
gsmi_system_valid().

A kernel booted with no_file_caps allows to install fscaps on a binary
but doesn't actually honor the fscaps when running the binary. Userspace
currently has no sane way to determine whether installing fscaps
actually has any effect. Since parsing /proc/cmdline is fragile this
patch exposes the current setting (1 or 0) via /sys/kernel/fscaps

New Asus notebooks are using a WMI device similar to
the one used in Eee PCs. Since we don't want to load
eeepc-wmi module on Asus notebooks, and we want to
keep the eeepc-wmi module for backward compatibility,
this patch introduce a new module, named asus-wmi, that
will be used by eeepc-wmi and the new Asus Notebook WMI
Driver.
eeepc-wmi's input device strings (device name and phys)
are kept, but rfkill and led names are changed (s/eeepc/asus/).
This should not break anything since rfkill are used by type or
index, not by name, and the eeepc::touchpad led wasn't working
correctly before 2.6.39 anyway.

autofs4 - fix dentry leak in autofs4_expire_direct()
autofs4 - reinstate last used update on access
vfs - check non-mountpoint dentry might block in __follow_mount_rcu()
Now that inode state changes are protected by the inode->i_lock and
the inode LRU manipulations by the inode_lru_lock, we can remove the
inode_lock from prune_icache and the initial part of iput_final().
instead of using the inode_lock to protect the inode during
iput_final, use the inode->i_lock instead. This protects the inode
against new references being taken while we change the inode state
to I_FREEING, as well as preventing prune_icache from grabbing the
inode while we are manipulating it. Hence we no longer need the
inode_lock in iput_final prior to setting I_FREEING on the inode.
For prune_icache, we no longer need the inode_lock to protect the
LRU list, and the inodes themselves are protected against freeing
races by the inode->i_lock. Hence we can lift the inode_lock from
prune_icache as well.
