The AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code is now unused in ACPICA.
For linux, it's only used at wmi.c and acer-wmi.c.
I checked both wmi.c and acer-wmi.c, the AE_BAD_ADDRESS exception code
has no special meaning. The parent functions just call AE_SUCCESS() or
AE_FAILURE() to check the return status.
So it's safe to replace AE_BAD_ADDRESS with AE_ERROR.

This is debatable, but while we're debating it, let's disallow the
combination of splice and an O_APPEND destination.
It's not entirely clear what the semantics of O_APPEND should be, and
POSIX apparently expects pwrite() to ignore O_APPEND, for example. So
we could make up any semantics we want, including the old ones.
But Miklos convinced me that we should at least give it some thought,
and that accepting writes at arbitrary offsets is wrong at least for
IS_APPEND() files (which always have O_APPEND set, even if the reverse
isn't true: you can obviously have O_APPEND set on a regular file).
So disallow O_APPEND entirely for now. I doubt anybody cares, and this
way we have one less gray area to worry about.

This fixes the previous fix, which was completely wrong on closer
inspection. This version has been manually tested with a user-space
test harness and generates sane values. A nearly identical patch has
been boot-tested.
The problem arose from changing how kmalloc/kfree handled alignment
padding without updating ksize to match. This brings it in sync.

Enable driver checking of the DMI product name (when enabled) on
an Abit AT8 32X, instead of falling back to a manual probe. This
eliminates false negatives and eventually will help avoid

On the Shuttle SN68PT, FAN_CTL2 is apparently not connected to a fan,
but to something else. One user has reported instant system power-off
when changing the PWM2 duty cycle, so we disable it.
I use the board name string as the trigger in case the same board is
ever used in other systems.

Because of rounding, in certain conditions, i.e. when in congestion
avoidance state rho is smaller than 1/128 of the current cwnd, TCP
Hybla congestion control starves and the cwnd is kept constant
forever.
This patch forces an increment by one segment after #send_cwnd calls
without increments(newreno behavior).

Benjamin Thery tracked down a bug that explains many instances
of the error
unregister_netdevice: waiting for %s to become free. Usage count = %d
It turns out that netdev_run_todo can dead-lock with itself if
a second instance of it is run in a thread that will then free
a reference to the device waited on by the first instance.
The problem is really quite silly. We were trying to create
parallelism where none was required. As netdev_run_todo always
follows a RTNL section, and that todo tasks can only be added
with the RTNL held, by definition you should only need to wait
for the very ones that you've added and be done with it.
There is no need for a second mutex or spinlock.
This is exactly what the following patch does.

When TCP receive copy offload is enabled it's possible that
tcp_rcv_established() will cause two acks to be sent for a single
packet. In the case that a tcp_dma_early_copy() is successful,
copied_early is set to true which causes tcp_cleanup_rbuf() to be
called early which can send an ack. Further along in
tcp_rcv_established(), __tcp_ack_snd_check() is called and will
schedule a delayed ACK. If no packets are processed before the delayed
ack timer expires the packet will be acked twice.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> reported a bug when setting a VLAN
device down that is in promiscous mode:
When the VLAN device is set down, the promiscous count on the real
device is decremented by one by vlan_dev_stop(). When removing the
promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous
count on the real device is decremented a second time by the
vlan_change_rx_flags() callback.
The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is
invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror
the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function
is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is
responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags()
is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP.
Only invoke ->change_rx_flags() while the device is UP to provide the
intended behaviour.

SLOB's ksize calculation was braindamaged and generally harmlessly
underreported the allocation size. But for very small buffers, it could
in fact overreport them, leading code depending on krealloc to overrun
the allocation and trample other data.
