commit 886486b792e4f6f96d4fbe8ec5bf20811cab7d6a upstream.

Originally, the runtime PM core would send an idle notification
whenever a suspend attempt failed.  The idle callback routine could
then schedule a delayed suspend for some time later.

However this behavior was changed by commit
f71648d73c1650b8b4aceb3856bebbde6daa3b86 (PM / Runtime: Remove idle
notification after failing suspend).  No notifications were sent, and
there was no clear mechanism to retry failed suspends.

This caused problems for the usbhid driver, because it fails
autosuspend attempts as long as a key is being held down.  Therefore
this patch (as1492) adds a mechanism for retrying failed
autosuspends.  If the callback routine updates the last_busy field so
that the next autosuspend expiration time is in the future, the
autosuspend will automatically be rescheduled.

<title>hwspinlock/core: use a mutex to protect the radix tree</title>

commit 93b465c2e186d96fb90012ba0f9372eb9952e732 upstream.

Since we're using non-atomic radix tree allocations, we
should be protecting the tree using a mutex and not a
spinlock.

Non-atomic allocations and process context locking is good enough,
as the tree is manipulated only when locks are registered/
unregistered/requested/freed.

The locks themselves are still protected by spinlocks of course,
and mutexes are not involved in the locking/unlocking paths.

<title>lguest: allow booting guest with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y</title>

commit e22a539824e8ddb82c87b4f415165ede82e6ab56 upstream.

The CONFIG_RELOCATABLE code tries to align the unpack destination to
the value of 'kernel_alignment' in the setup_hdr.  If that's 0, it
tries to unpack to address 0, which in fact causes the gunzip code
to call 'error("Out of memory while allocating output buffer")'.

The bootloader (ie. the lguest Launcher in this case) should be doing
setting this field; the normal bzImage is 16M, we can use the same.

That file harkens back to the days of the big 2.4 -&gt; 2.6 version jump,
and was based even then on older versions.  Some of it is just obsolete,
and Jesper Juhl points out that it talks about kernel versions 2.6 and
should be updated to 3.0.

Remove some obsolete text, and re-phrase some other to not be 2.6-specific.
