Looks like this is the problem, which point Al Viro some time ago:
ufs's get_block callback allocates 16k of disk at a time, and links that
entire 16k into the file's metadata. But because get_block is called for only
a single buffer_head (a 2k buffer_head in this case?) we are only able to tell
the VFS that this 2k is buffer_new().
So when ufs_getfrag_block() is later called to map some more data in the file,
and when that data resides within the remaining 14k of this fragment,
ufs_getfrag_block() will incorrectly return a !buffer_new() buffer_head.
I don't see _right_ way to do nullification of whole block, if use inode
page cache, some pages may be outside of inode limits (inode size), and
will be lost; if use blockdev page cache it is possible to zero real data,
if later inode page cache will be used.
The simpliest way, as can I see usage of block device page cache, but not only
mark dirty, but also sync it during "nullification". I use my simple tests
collection, which I used for check that create,open,write,read,close works on
ufs, and I see that this patch makes ufs code 18% slower then before.

Both process_zones() and drain_node_pages() check for populated zones
before touching pagesets. However, __drain_pages does not do so,
This may result in a NULL pointer dereference for pagesets in unpopulated
zones if a NUMA setup is combined with cpu hotplug.
Initially the unpopulated zone has the pcp pointers pointing to the boot
pagesets. Since the zone is not populated the boot pageset pointers will
not be changed during page allocator and slab bootstrap.
If a cpu is later brought down (first call to __drain_pages()) then the pcp
pointers for cpus in unpopulated zones are set to NULL since __drain_pages
does not first check for an unpopulated zone.
If the cpu is then brought up again then we call process_zones() which will
ignore the unpopulated zone. So the pageset pointers will still be NULL.
If the cpu is then again brought down then __drain_pages will attempt to
drain pages by following the NULL pageset pointer for unpopulated zones.

The problem here is that the void cast causes return types to not be
promoted, and for ops such as listxattr which expect more than 32 bits of
return value, the 32-bit -EIO is interpreted as a large positive 64-bit
number, i.e. 0x00000000fffffffa instead of 0xfffffffa.
This goes particularly badly when the return value is taken as a number of
bytes to copy into, say, a user's buffer for example...
I originally had coded up the fix by creating a return_EIO_<TYPE> macro
for each return type, like this:
but Al felt that it was probably better to create an EIO-returner for each
actual op signature. Since so few ops share a signature, I just went ahead
& created an EIO function for each individual file & inode op that returns
a value.

In all cases the guest proceeds without processing the interrupt, reducing

Russell King recently reminded us that one shouldn't use
asm/arch/hardware.h but one should use asm/hardware.h
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/23/26). Unfortunately, the leds-s3c24xx
driver is using the wrong header. This patch is fixing that.

A small typo in ax88772_bind() prevents the device from selecting the

If this patch can be added to the 2.6.19.x series as well, that would be

USB: usblp.c - add Kyocera Mita FS 820 to list of "quirky" printers
This patch gets the Kyocera FS-820 working with cups 1.2 via usb again. It
adds the printer to the list of "quirky" printers. The printer seems not
answer to ID requests some seconds after plugging in. Patch is based on
linux-2.6.19.1.
Background:
As far as I could see (strace, usbmon), the Kyocera FS-820 answers to ID
requests only a few seconds after plugging it in. This applies to detecting
it with cups and is also true for the printing itself, which is initiated
with an ID request. Since I have little usb knowledge, maybe someone can
interpret the data, especially the fist bulk transfer - why request 8192
bytes? This is the second version of the patch.

Instead of matching all motherboards whose name contains "A7V8X" for a

boards whose name is exactly equal to "A7V8X". Later motherboards
don't seem to have the bug.
(In fact, it's possible that only one motherboard in the world has the
bug. With only one user reporting problems, it's hard to tell.)
