Blackfin: improve double fault debug handling
Since the hardware only provides reporting for the last exception handled,
and the values are valid only when executing the exception handler, we
need to save the context for reporting at a later point. While we do this
for one exception, it doesn't work properly when handling a second one as
the original exception is clobbered by the double fault. So when double
fault debugging is enabled, create a dedicated shadow of these values and
save/restore out of there. Now the crash report properly displays the
first exception as well as the second one.

Blackfin: make EVT3->EVT5 lowering more robust wrt IPEND[4]
We handle many exceptions at EVT5 (hardware error level) so that we can
catch exceptions in our exception handling code. Today - if the global
interrupt enable bit (IPEND[4]) is set (interrupts disabled) our trap
handling code goes into a infinite loop, since we need interrupts to be
on to defer things to EVT5.
Normal kernel code should not trigger this for any reason as IPEND[4] gets
cleared early (when doing an interrupt context save) and the kernel stack
there should be sane (or something much worse is happening in the system).
But there have been a few times where this has happened, so this change
makes sure we dump a proper crash message even when things have gone south.

writeback: fix possible bdi writeback refcounting problem
wb_clear_pending AFAIKS should not be called after the item has been
put on the list, except by the worker threads. It could lead to the
situation where the refcount is decremented below 0 and cause lots of
problems.
Presumably the !wb_has_dirty_io case is not a common one, so it can
be discovered when the thread wakes up to check?
Also add a comment in bdi_work_clear.

be stacked on top of a "real" block driver, and catches
all write operations on their way from the file systems
layer above to the real driver below, effectively shielding
the lower driver from those write accesses. The requests are
then diverted to an ordinary file, located somewhere else
(configurable). Later read requests are checked to see whether
they can be serviced by the "real" block driver below, or
must be pulled in from the diverted location. More information

Staging: rtl8192e: fix timeouts on firmware download
We need to actually wait a specific ammount of time, not just hope that
a set number of loops will be long enough.
Based on a conversation with Ralink, and a proposed patch for their
older kernel driver.

Staging: rtl8192e: fix for stack bug
This should be a fix for the lockup bug when attaching to an access
point.
Patch came from a diff from RealTek. Hopefully it resolves the issue.
