8139cp: revert "set ring address before enabling receiver"

2012-12-10T19:13:12+00:00

commit b26623dab7eeb1e9f5898c7a49458789dd492f20 upstream.

This patch reverts b01af4579ec41f48e9b9c774e70bd6474ad210db.

The original patch was tested with emulated hardware. Real
hardware chokes.

x86, amd: Disable way access filter on Piledriver CPUs

2012-12-10T19:13:12+00:00

commit 2bbf0a1427c377350f001fbc6260995334739ad7 upstream.

The Way Access Filter in recent AMD CPUs may hurt the performance of
some workloads, caused by aliasing issues in the L1 cache.
This patch disables it on the affected CPUs.

The issue is similar to that one of last year:
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1107.3/00041.html
This new patch does not replace the old one, we just need another
quirk for newer CPUs.

The performance penalty without the patch depends on the
circumstances, but is a bit less than the last year's 3%.

The workloads affected would be those that access code from the same
physical page under different virtual addresses, so different
processes using the same libraries with ASLR or multiple instances of
PIE-binaries. The code needs to be accessed simultaneously from both
cores of the same compute unit.

More details can be found here:
http://developer.amd.com/Assets/SharedL1InstructionCacheonAMD15hCPU.pdf

CPUs affected are anything with the core known as Piledriver.
That includes the new parts of the AMD A-Series (aka Trinity) and the
just released new CPUs of the FX-Series (aka Vishera).
The model numbering is a bit odd here: FX CPUs have model 2,
A-Series has model 10h, with possible extensions to 1Fh. Hence the
range of model ids.

net: qmi_wwan: add Huawei E173

2012-12-10T19:13:12+00:00

commit ba695af067f9cadfec84457ac06b44e3fa849b15 upstream.

The Huawei E173 is a QMI/wwan device which normally appear
as 12d1:1436 in Linux. The descriptors displayed in that
mode will be picked up by cdc_ether.  But the modem has
another mode with a different device ID and a slightly
different set of descriptors. This is the mode used by
Windows like this:

i7core_edac: fix panic when accessing sysfs files

2012-12-10T19:13:11+00:00

commit 42709efb3a47524c6252e1bdc85e205f7bc356fb upstream.

The i7core_edac addrmatch_dev and chancounts_dev have sysfs files
associated with them.  The sysfs files, however, are coded so that the
parent device is is the mci device.  This is incorrect and the mci struct
should be obtained through the addrmatch_dev and chancounts_dev device's
private data field which is populated in i7core_create_sysfs_devices().

Revert "sched, autogroup: Stop going ahead if autogroup is disabled"

2012-12-10T19:13:11+00:00

commit fd8ef11730f1d03d5d6555aa53126e9e34f52f12 upstream.

This reverts commit 800d4d30c8f20bd728e5741a3b77c4859a613f7c.

Between commits 8323f26ce342 ("sched: Fix race in task_group()") and
800d4d30c8f2 ("sched, autogroup: Stop going ahead if autogroup is
disabled"), autogroup is a wreck.

With both applied, all you have to do to crash a box is disable
autogroup during boot up, then reboot..  boom, NULL pointer dereference
due to commit 800d4d30c8f2 not allowing autogroup to move things, and
commit 8323f26ce342 making that the only way to switch runqueues:
