commit 1ee4c55fc9 upstream.
vt6656 has several headers that use the #pragma pack(1) directive to
enable structure packing, but never disable it. The layout of
structures defined in other headers can then depend on which order the
various headers are included in, breaking the One Definition Rule.
In practice this resulted in crashes on x86_64 until the order of header
inclusion was changed for some files in commit 11d404cb56 ('staging:
vt6656: fix headers and add cfg80211.'). But we need a proper fix that
won't be affected by future changes to the order of inclusion.
This removes the #pragma pack(1) directives and adds __packed to the
structure definitions for which packing appears to have been intended.

commit 34ffb33e09 upstream.
The 'ni_at_a2150' module links to `cfc_write_to_buffer` in the
'comedi_fc' module, so selecting 'COMEDI_NI_AT_A2150' in the kernel config
needs to also select 'COMEDI_FC'.

commit c43435d772 upstream.
comedi_auto_config() associates a Comedi minor device number with an
auto-configured hardware device and comedi_auto_unconfig() disassociates
it. Currently, these use the hardware device's private data pointer to
point to some allocated storage holding the minor device number. This
is a bit of a waste of the hardware device's private data pointer,
preventing it from being used for something more useful by the low-level
comedi device drivers. For example, it would make more sense if
comedi_usb_auto_config() was passed a pointer to the struct
usb_interface instead of the struct usb_device, but this cannot be done
currently because the low-level comedi drivers already use the private
data pointer in the struct usb_interface for something more useful.
This patch stops the comedi core hijacking the hardware device's private
data pointer. Instead, comedi_auto_config() stores a pointer to the
hardware device's struct device in the struct comedi_device_file_info
associated with the minor device number, and comedi_auto_unconfig()
calls new function comedi_find_board_minor() to recover the minor device
number associated with the hardware device.

commit c0729eeefd upstream.
Éric Piel reported a kernel oops in the "comedi_test" module. It was a
NULL pointer dereference within `waveform_ai_interrupt()` (actually a
timer function) that sometimes occurred when a running asynchronous
command is cancelled (either by the `COMEDI_CANCEL` ioctl or by closing
the device file).
This seems to be a race between the caller of `waveform_ai_cancel()`
which on return from that function goes and tears down the running
command, and the timer function which uses the command. In particular,
`async->cmd.chanlist` gets freed (and the pointer set to NULL) by
`do_become_nonbusy()` in "comedi_fops.c" but a previously scheduled
`waveform_ai_interrupt()` timer function will dereference that pointer
regardless, leading to the oops.
Fix it by replacing the `del_timer()` call in `waveform_ai_cancel()`
with `del_timer_sync()`.

commit 7d3135af39 upstream.
When a low-level comedi driver auto-configures a device, a `struct
comedi_dev_file_info` is allocated (as well as a `struct
comedi_device`) by `comedi_alloc_board_minor()`. A pointer to the
hardware `struct device` is stored as a cookie in the `struct
comedi_dev_file_info`. When the low-level comedi driver
auto-unconfigures the device, `comedi_auto_unconfig()` uses the cookie
to find the `struct comedi_dev_file_info` so it can detach the comedi
device from the driver, clean it up and free it.
A problem arises if the user manually unconfigures and reconfigures the
comedi device using the `COMEDI_DEVCONFIG` ioctl so that is no longer
associated with the original hardware device. The problem is that the
cookie is not cleared, so that a call to `comedi_auto_unconfig()` from
the low-level driver will still find it, detach it, clean it up and free
it.
Stop this problem occurring by always clearing the `hardware_device`
cookie in the `struct comedi_dev_file_info` whenever the
`COMEDI_DEVCONFIG` ioctl call is successful.

commit 70e227790d upstream.
The timer appears to run too fast/race on 64 bit systems.
Using msecs_to_jiffies seems to cause a deadlock on 64 bit.
A calculation of (MSecond * HZ) / 1000 appears to run satisfactory.
Change BSSIDInfoCount to u32.
After this patch the driver can be successfully connect on little endian 64/32 bit systems.

commit aaeb61a97b upstream.
`pc236_detach()` is called by the comedi core if it attempted to attach
a device and failed. `pc236_detach()` calls `pc236_intr_disable()` if
the comedi device private data pointer (`devpriv`) is non-null. This
test is insufficient as `pc236_intr_disable()` accesses hardware
registers and the attach routine may have failed before it has saved
their I/O base addresses.
Fix it by checking `dev->iobase` is non-zero before calling
`pc236_intr_disable()` as that means the I/O base addresses have been
saved and the hardware registers can be accessed. It also implies the
comedi device private data pointer is valid, so there is no need to
check it.
