commit 703f03c896fdbd726b809066ae279df513992f0e upstream.

As stated in drivers/mfd/cs5535-mfd.c, the mfd driver exposes the BARs
which then make the GPIO, MFGPT, ACPI, etc.  all visible to the system.

So the dependencies of the MFGPT stuff have changed, and most people
expect Kconfig to bring in the necessary dependencies.  Without them, the
module fails to load and most people don't understand why because the
details of the rewrite aren't captured anywhere most people who know to
look.

This dependency needs to be reflected in Kconfig.

Fix this section mismatch:

  WARNING: drivers/misc/ioc4.o(.data+0x144): Section mismatch in reference from the variable ioc4_load_modules_work to the function .devinit.text:ioc4_load_modules()
  The variable ioc4_load_modules_work references
  the function __devinit ioc4_load_modules()
  If the reference is valid then annotate the
  variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable:
  *driver, *_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console

This one is potentially fatal; by the time ioc4_load_modules is invoked
it may already have been freed.  For that reason ioc4_load_modules_work
can't be turned to __devinitdata but also because it's referenced in
ioc4_exit.

<title>drivers/misc/lkdtm.c: fix race when crashpoint is hit multiple times before checking count</title>

<id>aa2c96d6f329e66cc59352b0f12e8f04e6a9593b</id>
<content type='text'>
We observed the crash point count going negative in cases where the
crash point is hit multiple times before the check of "count == 0" is
done.  Because of this we never call lkdtm_do_action().  This patch just
adds a spinlock to protect count.

Fix the wrong `if' condition for the check if the requested timer is
available.

The bitmap avail is used to store if a timer is used already.  test_bit()
is used to check if the requested timer is available.  If a bit in the
avail bitmap is set it means that the timer is available.

The runtime effect would be that allocating a specific timer always fails
(versus telling cs5535_mfgpt_alloc_timer to allocate the first available
timer, which works).
