Most fasync implementations do something like:

     return fasync_helper(...);

But fasync_helper() will return a positive value at times - a feature used
in at least one place.  Thus, a number of other drivers do:

     err = fasync_helper(...);
     if (err &lt; 0)
             return err;
     return 0;

In the interests of consistency and more concise code, it makes sense to
map positive return values onto zero where -&gt;fasync() is called.

<title>ACPI: remove CONFIG_ACPI_EC</title>

Remove CONFIG_ACPI_EC.  It was always set the same as CONFIG_ACPI,
and it had no menu label, so there was no way to set it to anything
other than "y".

Per section 6.5.4 of the ACPI 3.0b specification,

    OSPM must make Embedded Controller operation regions, accessed
    via the Embedded Controllers described in ECDT, available before
    executing any control method.

The ECDT table is optional, but if it is present, the above text
means that the EC it describes is a required part of the ACPI
subsystem, so CONFIG_ACPI_EC=n wouldn't make sense.

As it is, all instances of -&gt;release() for files that have -&gt;fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file-&gt;f_flags and call -&gt;fasync() there if it's been set.  And lose that
crap in -&gt;release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

The C99 specification states in section 6.11.5:

The placement of a storage-class specifier other than at the
beginning of the declaration specifiers in a declaration is an
obsolescent feature.

We know exactly what IRQ we are using, so synchronize_irq()
suits much better. Plus synchronize_sched() will not work
for us in -rt kernels.

* Convert files to UTF-8.

  * Also correct some people's names
    (one example is Eißfeldt, which was found in a source file.
    Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file
    indicates that the real name has in fact a 'ß' and not an 'ss',
    which is commonly used as a substitute for 'ß' when limited to
    7bit.)

  * Correct town names (Goettingen -&gt; Göttingen)
