Takashi Iwai ffe4d12b15 ALSA: hda - Add a fixup for internal mic on MacBook Pro 8,1
The internal mic on MBP81 gives only the right channel, and the left
channel is static.  Add a verb to fix the ADC2 channel mode to expand
mono right to stereo.

Takashi Iwai 98415eacb3 ALSA: hda - Add missing verb applications in patch_cirrus.c
We forgot to apply the fixup verbs in cs_init().

But adding the fixup verbs will break mbp101 fixup that has been fixed
recently again, since the mbp101 fixup contains the wrong verbs to
override.  So these bogus verbs must be removed, too.

Takashi Iwai 90caaef6a1 ALSA: hdsp: improve firmware caching
As the recent firmware code tries to reread and cache the firmware by
itself, it's even better to keep the struct firmware data instead of
keeping a local copy.  Also, it makes little sense to disable the fw
loader for this driver, so added the explicit dependency, too.

Last, but not least, allocate the firmware data loaded via ioctl in
vmalloc'ed buffer instead, as the firmware size isn't that small.

Takashi Iwai e39ae85644 ALSA: hda - Don't release firmware when CONFIG_PM is set
The new firmware code tries to re-read the formerly read firmware
files before suspend.  Thus it's wiser to keep the "patch" firmware in
the driver for avoiding this unnecessary re-reading.

Of course, this will consume a bit of memory for unused stuff, but
the patch fw is supposed to be fairly small, so it's more benefit in
the end.

Takashi Iwai 3fdf1469ee ALSA: hda - Don't overwrite the pin default configs
Since we keep the pin default config values anyway internally, we
don't have to set the values in the codec.  This patch removes the
code writing the pincfg values.

As a gratis bonus, we can remove also the code restoring the original
pincfg values at PM resume or module free.  This will give us more
benefit, as it can reduce the unnecessary power-up of codecs.

This won't change the driver functionality.  The only difference would
be that the codec proc file will show the original pincfg values
instead of the actually referred values.  The actually referred values
can be determined from sysfs *_pin_configs files.
(Also hda-emu was updated to follow this change.)

As we are stopping the endpoints asynchronously now, it's better to
trigger the stop of both data and sync endpoints and wait for pending
stopping operations, instead of the sequential trigger-and-wait
procedure.

So the wait argument in snd_usb_endpoint_stop() is dropped, and it's
expected that the caller synchronizes explicitly by calling
snd_usb_endpoint_sync_pending_stop().  (Actually there is only one
place calling this, so it was safe to change.)

Russell King 3ccdf5bbdf ASoC: kirkwood-i2s: more pause-mode fixes
Don't even momentarily set the pause status when starting the channel;
if we do, we should check the busy bit to ensure that we comply with
the spec.  In any case, it isn't necessary; we will not active on a
START event so there is no need to pause the DMA.

Russell King 982b604bc5 ASoC: kirkwood-i2s: fix DMA underruns
Stress testing the driver with multiple start/stop events causes
kirkwood-dma to report underrun errors (which used to cause the kernel
to lock up solidly).  This is because kirkwood-i2s is not respecting
the restrictions imposed on clearing the 'pause' bit.  Follow what the
spec says; the busy bit must be read as being clear twice before the
pause bit can be released.  This solves the underruns.

However, it has been noticed that the busy bit occasionally does not
clear itself, hence the waiting is bounded to 5ms maximum to avoid a
new reason for the kernel to lockup.

Ignoring the real cause of the interrupt is not a good idea; this
behaviour has been observed to bring Dove platforms to silently
lockup.  Instead, on error fall through to the normal interrupt
processing.

This is especially important on Dove platforms as errors are
handled separately, and allows us to clear down the real cause of
the interrupt.

Revert commit 7f1290f2f2 ("mm: fix-up zone present pages")

That patch tried to fix a issue when calculating zone->present_pages,
but it caused a regression on 32bit systems with HIGHMEM.  With that
change, reset_zone_present_pages() resets all zone->present_pages to
zero, and fixup_zone_present_pages() is called to recalculate
zone->present_pages when the boot allocator frees core memory pages into
buddy allocator.  Because highmem pages are not freed by bootmem
allocator, all highmem zones' present_pages becomes zero.

Various options for improving the situation are being discussed but for
now, let's return to the 3.6 code.

Hugh Dickins 0f3c42f522 tmpfs: change final i_blocks BUG to WARNING
Under a particular load on one machine, I have hit shmem_evict_inode()'s
BUG_ON(inode->i_blocks), enough times to narrow it down to a particular
race between swapout and eviction.

It comes from the "if (freed > 0)" asymmetry in shmem_recalc_inode(),
and the lack of coherent locking between mapping's nrpages and shmem's
swapped count.  There's a window in shmem_writepage(), between lowering
nrpages in shmem_delete_from_page_cache() and then raising swapped
count, when the freed count appears to be +1 when it should be 0, and
then the asymmetry stops it from being corrected with -1 before hitting
the BUG.

One answer is coherent locking: using tree_lock throughout, without
info->lock; reasonable, but the raw_spin_lock in percpu_counter_add() on
used_blocks makes that messier than expected.  Another answer may be a
further effort to eliminate the weird shmem_recalc_inode() altogether,
but previous attempts at that failed.

So far undecided, but for now change the BUG_ON to WARN_ON: in usual
circumstances it remains a useful consistency check.
