Even since a previous patch:
Fix race between CONFIG_DEBUG_SLABALLOC and modules
Sun, 27 Jun 2004 17:55:19 +0000 (17:55 +0000)
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/old-2.6-bkcvs.git;a=commit;h=92b3db26d31cf21b70e3c1eadc56c179506d8fbe
The function symbol_put_addr() will deadlock the kernel.
symbol_put_addr() would acquire modlist_lock, then while holding the lock call
two functions kernel_text_address() and module_text_address() which also try
to acquire the same lock. This deadlocks the kernel of course.
This patch changes symbol_put_addr() to not acquire the modlist_lock, it
doesn't need it since it never looks at the module list directly. Also, it
now uses core_kernel_text() instead of kernel_text_address(). The latter has
an additional check for addr inside a module, but we don't need to do that
since we call module_text_address() (the same function kernel_text_address
uses) ourselves.

Copy the filenames of hardlinks when inserting them into the hash, since
the "name" pointer may point to scratch space (name_buf). Not doing so
results in corruption if the scratch space is later overwritten: the wrong
file may be hardlinked, or, if the scratch space contains garbage, the link
will fail and a 0-byte file will be created instead.

An earlier commit (75cf7456dd) changed an
overly-zealous PCI quirk to only poke those VIA devices that need it.
However, some PCI devices were not included in what I hope is now the full
list. Consequently we're failing to run the quirk on all machines which need
it, causing IRQ routing failures.
This should I hope correct this.

This patch fixes two problems.
First, the comparison of entries in the waitq.c was incorrect.
Second, the NFY_NONE check was incorrect. The test of whether the dentry
is mounted if ineffective, for example, if an expire fails then we could
wait forever on a non existant expire. The bug was identified by Jeff
Moyer.
The patch changes autofs4 to wait on expires only as this is all that's
needed. If there is no existing wait when autofs4_wait is call with a type
of NFY_NONE it delays until either a wait appears or the the expire flag is
cleared.

Make sure to clear the driverfs_dev pointer when we do del_gendisk() (on
disk removal), so that other users that may still have a ref to the disk
won't try to use the stale pointer.
Also move the KOBJ_REMOVE uevent handler up, so that the uevent still
has access to the driverfs_dev data.
This all should hopefully fix the problems with MMC umounts after device
removals that caused commit 56cf6504fc and
its reversal (1a2acc9e92).

This patch prevents a bug where the frontend is unable to tune after waking
from powered down state. Now, the device remains powered on until it is
disconnected, just like the windows driver. It seems that the bluebird
firmware is unable to successfully handle tuning after a powered down state.
This patch fixes all of the FusionHDTV Bluebird USB2 devices. The Medion
MD95700 will still behave as before, since it was unaffected by this bug.

Unfortunately, since the mutex is unlocked before the card is added to the
