| Greg KH | [patch 73/73] PCI: Fix fakephp deadlock
2.6.23-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Ian Abbott <abbotti@mev.co.uk>
This patch works around a problem in the fakephp driver when a process
writing "0" to a "power" sysfs file to fake removal of a PCI device ends
up deadlocking itself in the sysfs code.
The patch is functionally identical to the one in Linus' tree post 2.6.24:

2.6.23-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Jay Cliburn <jacliburn@bellsouth.net>
Upstream commit: 2a49128f0a6edee337174ea341c1d6d7565be350
The driver sets up the hardware to accept a frame with max length
equal to MTU + Ethernet header + FCS + VLAN tag, but we neglect to
add the VLAN tag size to the ingress buffer. When a VLAN-tagged
frame arrives, the hardware passes it, but bad things happen
because the buffer is too small. ...

[CRYPTO] padlock: Fix spurious ECB page fault
[ Upstream commit: d4a7dd8e637b322faaa934ffcd6dd07711af831f ]
[ Upstream commit: 490fe3f05be3f7c87d7932bcb6e6e53e3db2cd9c ]
The xcryptecb instruction always processes an even number of blocks so
we need to ensure th existence of an extra block if we have to process
an odd number of blocks.

------------------
From: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
patch 9f9adecd2d0e4f88fa0e8cb06c6ec207748df70a in mainline.
ACPI and APM used "pm_active" to guarantee that
they would not be simultaneously active.
But pm_active was recently moved under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY,
so that without CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, pm_active became a NOP --
allowing ACPI and APM to both be simultaneously enabled.
This caused unpredictable result...

From: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>
patch 96c2a8766bf4fe91abac863749c11637fabcc64f in mainline.
When PCI IDE controller works in legacy mode and no PRT entry is found
in ACPI PRT table, OSPM will neither read the irq number from the IDE
PCI configuration space nor call the function of acpi_register_gsi to
register gsi.

Here's proposed fix for RX checksum handling in cassini; it affects
little-endian working with half-duplex gigabit, but obviously needs
testing on big-endian too.
The problem is, we need to convert checksum to fixed-endian *before*
correcting for (unstripped) FCS. On big-endian it won't mat...

skb->mac_header = skb->network_header;
and those are corrected here.
