This patch (as852) allows usb_set_configuration() to accept a config

USB: fix g_serial small error
A SET_LINE_CODING control request should return a zero length packet
as an ACK to the host, during the status phase of a USB transaction.
The return value of gs_setup_class() is treated as the number of
bytes to write in the status phase of the control request, by
gs_setup(). For this case, the value returned by gs_setup_class should
be zero for SET_LINE_CODING but, right now, appears to be
sizeof(struct usb_cdc_line_coding).
However, if after doing the memcpy of the line coding descriptor we
set the variable "ret" to be zero, we should return the appropiate ZLP
to the host as an ACK in the status phase of the control request.
I've tested this out using Linux as both host and slave and confirmed
that the following small change fixes the spurious return of
sizeof(struct usb_cdc_line_coding)/wLength bytes in the status phase

It is certainly helpful for low-bandwidth devices that can hold their

[PATCH] knfsd: stop NFSD writes from being broken into lots of little writes to filesystem
When NFSD receives a write request, the data is typically in a number of
1448 byte segments and writev is used to collect them together.
Unfortunately, generic_file_buffered_write passes these to the filesystem
one at a time, so an e.g. 32K over-write becomes a series of partial-page
writes to each page, causing the filesystem to have to pre-read those pages
- wasted effort.
generic_file_buffered_write handles one segment of the vector at a time as
it has to pre-fault in each segment to avoid deadlocks. When writing from
kernel-space (and nfsd does) this is not an issue, so
generic_file_buffered_write does not need to break and iovec from nfsd into
little pieces.
This patch avoids the splitting when get_fs is KERNEL_DS as it is
from NFSd.

[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: fix handling of directories without default ACLs

[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: acls: avoid unnecessary denies
We're inserting deny's between some ACEs in order to enforce posix draft acl
semantics which prevent permissions from accumulating across entries in an
acl.
That's fine, but we're doing that by inserting a deny after *every* allow,
which is overkill. We shouldn't be adding them in places where they actually
make no difference.
Also replaced some helper functions for creating acl entries; I prefer just
assigning directly to the struct fields--it takes a few more lines, but the
field names provide some documentation that I think makes the result easier
understand.

[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: relax checking of ACL inheritance bits
The rfc allows us to be more permissive about the ACL inheritance bits we
accept:
"If the server supports a single "inherit ACE" flag that applies to
both files and directories, the server may reject the request
(i.e., requiring the client to set both the file and directory
inheritance flags). The server may also accept the request and
silently turn on the ACE4_DIRECTORY_INHERIT_ACE flag."
Let's take the latter option--the ACL is a complex attribute that could be
rejected for a wide variety of reasons, and the protocol gives us little
ability to explain the reason for the rejection, so erroring out is a
user-unfriendly last resort.

Never mask interrupts immediately upon request. Disabling interrupts in

recover lost edges (or even other types of lost interrupts) by conservatively

highlevel irq-disable code still soft-disables this IRQ line - and if such an
interrupt happens then the IRQ flow handler keeps the IRQ masked.)

[PATCH] i386 prepare nmi watchdog for dynticks
The NMI watchdog implementation assumes that the local APIC timer interrupt is
happening. This assumption is not longer true when high resolution timers and
dynamic ticks come into play, as they may switch off the local APIC timer
completely. Take the PIT/HPET interrupts into account too, to avoid false
positives.

[PATCH] i386 rework local apic timer calibration
The local apic timer calibration has two problem cases:
1. The calibration is based on readout of the PIT/HPET timer to detect the
wrap of the periodic tick. It happens that a box gets stuck in the
calibration loop due to a PIT with a broken readout function.
2. CoreDuo boxen show a sporadic PIT runs too slow defect, which results
in a wrong lapic calibration. The PIT goes back to normal operation once
the lapic timer is switched to periodic mode.
Both are existing and unfixed problems in the current upstream kernel and
prevent certain laptops and other systems from booting Linux.
Rework the code to address both problems:
- Make the calibration interrupt driven. This removes the wait_timer_tick
magic hackery from lapic.c and time_hpet.c. The clockevents framework
allows easy substitution of the global tick event handler for the
calibration. This is more accurate than monitoring jiffies. At this point
of the boot process, nothing disturbes the interrupt delivery, so the
results are very accurate.
- Verify the calibration against the PM timer, when available by using the
early access function. When the measured calibration period is outside of
an one percent window, then the lapic timer calibration is adjusted to the
pm timer result.
- Verify the calibration by running the lapic timer with the calibration
handler. Disable lapic timer in case of deviation.
This also removes the "synchronization" of the local apic timer to the global
tick. This synchronization never worked, as there is no way to synchronize
PIT(HPET) and local APIC timer. The synchronization by waiting for the tick
just alignes the local APIC timer for the first events, but later the events
drift away due to the different clocks. Removing the "sync" is just
randomizing the asynchronous behaviour at setup time.
