There's a bug in the mxser kernel module that still appears in the
2.6.29.4 kernel.
mxser_get_ISA_conf takes a ioaddress as its first argument, by passing the
not of the ioaddr, you're effectively passing 0 which means it won't be
able to talk to an ISA card. I have tested this, and removing the !
fixes the problem.

Michael Tokarev reported receiving a large packet could crash
a machine with RTL8169 NIC.
( original thread at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/8/192 )
Problem is this driver tells that NIC frames up to 16383 bytes
can be received but provides skb to rx ring allocated with
smaller sizes (1536 bytes in case standard 1500 bytes MTU is used)
When a frame larger than what was allocated by driver is received,
dma transfert can occurs past the end of buffer and corrupt
kernel memory.
Fix is to tell to NIC what is the maximum size a frame can be.
This bug is very old, (before git introduction, linux-2.6.10), and
should be backported to stable versions.

Now that we support changing the chunksize, we calculate
"reshape_sectors" to be the max of number of sectors in old
and new chunk size.
However there is one please where we still use 'chunksize'
rather than 'reshape_sectors'.
This causes a reshape that reduces the size of chunks to freeze.

md has functionality to 'quiesce' and array so that all pending
IO completed and no new IO starts. This is used to achieve a
stable state before making internal changes.
Currently this quiescing applies equally to normal IO, resync
IO, and reshape IO.
However there is a problem with applying it to reshape IO.
Reshape can have multiple 'stripe_heads' that must be active together.
If the quiesce come between allocating the first and the last of
such a collection, then we deadlock, as the last will not be allocated
until the quiesce is lifted, the quiesce will not be lifted until the
first (which has been allocated) gets used, and that first cannot be
used until the last is allocated.
It is not necessary to inhibit reshape IO when a quiesce is
requested. Those places in the code that require a full quiesce will
ensure the reshape thread is not running at all.
So allow reshape requests to get access to new stripe_heads without
being blocked by a 'quiesce'.
This only affects in-place reshapes (i.e. where the array does not
grow or shrink) and these are only newly supported. So this patch is
not needed in earlier kernels.

mddev->raid_disks can be changed and any time by a request from
user-space. It is a suggestion as to what number of raid_disks is
desired.
conf->raid_disks can only be changed by the raid5 module with suitable
locks in place. It is a statement as to the current number of
raid_disks.
There are two places where the latter should be used, but the former
is used. This can lead to a crash when reshaping an array.
This patch changes to mddev-> to conf->

pdc202xx_reset() calls pdc202xx_reset_host() twice, for both channels, while
that function actually twiddles the single, shared software reset bit -- the
net effect is a duplicated reset and horrendous 4 second delay happening not
only on a channel reset but also when dma_lost_irq() and dma_clear() methods
are called. Fold pdc202xx_reset_host() into pdc202xx_reset(), fix printk(),
and move it before the actual reset...

Commit ac95beedf8 (ide: add struct ide_port_ops
(take 2)) erroneously converted the driver's dma_timeout() and dma_lost_irq()
methods to call the driver's resetproc() method regardless of whether it was
defined for this specific controller while it hadn't been defined and hence
called for PDC20246. So the dma_clear() method, the successor of dma_timeout(),
shouldn't exist and the dma_lost_irq() method should be standard for PDC20246.
