2009-04-06NFS: Fix a double free in nfs_parse_mount_options()Trond Myklebust1-1/+1
Due to an apparent typo, commit a67d18f89f5782806135aad4ee012ff78d45aae7 (NFS: load the rpc/rdma transport module automatically) lead to the 'proto=' mount option doing a double free, while Opt_mountproto leaks a string.

2009-04-06ext3: make default data ordering mode configurableLinus Torvalds2-1/+26
This makes the defautl ext3 data ordering mode (when no explicit ordering is set) configurable, so as to allow people to default to 'data=writeback' and get the resulting latency improvements. This is a non-issue if a filesystem has been explicitly set to some ordering (with 'tune2fs'). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2009-04-06exit_notify: kill the wrong capable(CAP_KILL) checkOleg Nesterov1-2/+1
The CAP_KILL check in exit_notify() looks just wrong, kill it. Whatever logic we have to reset ->exit_signal, the malicious user can bypass it if it execs the setuid application before exiting.

2009-04-06symbol: Remove various bits of left over junkAlan Cox1-67/+0
There are various bits of code here that are unfinished and instead of being harmless either confuse or spew stuff into the logs at higher than debug level. They can and should go away. Also remove the bogus use of tty->lowlatency. We fixed the need for this hack long ago (with the flip buffer rewrite) but people keep copying it into drivers.

2009-04-06mxser: remove tty_port_tty_get from mxser_check_modem_statusJiri Slaby1-1/+0
mxser_check_modem_status is called with tty parameter, so the reference should be increased by callers already -- for ioctl syscall it is held whole time gap since open to close, for interrupt, the reference count is increased in the irq handler. There is no tty_kref_put in that function, so this also fixes a refcounting bug.

2009-04-06backlight: Add support for MacBook 5, MacBook Air 2, and MacBook Pro 5Mario Schwalbe1-36/+126
This patch adds support for the new Apple models incorporating an Nvidia chipset. Apple still uses the same protocol as on older models, but the registers moved to a different address. To do this, two sets of functions are added for the Intel/Nvidia chipset models and passed by the DMI_MATCH function. The initial code has been contributed by Hu Gang <hugang@soulinfo.com>. The driver is known to work on MacBook Pro 3, MacBook Pro 4 and MacBook Pro 5. Its known to work with limitations on MacBook 5 / MacBook Air 2. Changing brightness within X doesn't work, if using Nvidia's proprietary graphics driver with no known fix at present. Changing brightness on a text console or using the open-source driver does work. MacBook Pro 5 has a known bug where the initial brightness after bootup is the last recently used brightness (in Mac OSX), while the firmware reports maximum. Impossible to fix.
