The PPP code contains two kmalloc()s followed by memset()s without
handling a possible memory allocation failure. (Suggested by Joe
Perches).
And furthermore, conversions from kmalloc+memset to kzalloc.

Fix a subtle race condition between bnx2_start_xmit() and bnx2_tx_int()
similar to the one in tg3 discovered by Herbert Xu:
CPU0 CPU1
bnx2_start_xmit()
if (tx_ring_full) {
tx_lock
bnx2_tx()
if (!netif_queue_stopped)
netif_stop_queue()
if (!tx_ring_full)
update_tx_ring
netif_wake_queue()
tx_unlock
}
Even though tx_ring is updated before the if statement in bnx2_tx_int() in
program order, it can be re-ordered by the CPU as shown above. This
scenario can cause the tx queue to be stopped forever if bnx2_tx_int() has
just freed up the entire tx_ring. The possibility of this happening
should be very rare though.
The following changes are made, very much identical to the tg3 fix:
1. Add memory barrier to fix the above race condition.
2. Eliminate the private tx_lock altogether and rely solely on
netif_tx_lock. This eliminates one spinlock in bnx2_start_xmit()
when the ring is full.
3. Because of 2, use netif_tx_lock in bnx2_tx_int() before calling
netif_wake_queue().
4. Add memory barrier to bnx2_tx_avail().
5. Add bp->tx_wake_thresh which is set to half the tx ring size.
6. Check for the full wake queue condition before getting
netif_tx_lock in tg3_tx(). This reduces the number of unnecessary
spinlocks when the tx ring is full in a steady-state condition.

While going through the code, I found out some memory leaks and potential
crashes in drivers/acpi/hotkey.c Please find the patch to fix them.
This patch does the following,
1. Fixes memory leaks in error paths of hotkey_write_config
2. Fixes freeing unallocated pointers in the error paths of hotkey_write_config
3. Uses a loop instead of linear searching for parsing the userspace
input in get_params
4. Uses array of char * instead of passing 4 pointer parameters
explicitly into the init_{poll_}hotkey_* static functions

This is to remove noisy useless message at boot. The message is a ton of
"ACPI Exception (acpi_memory-0492): AE_ERROR, handle is no memory device"
In my emulation, number of memory devices are not so many (only 6), but,
this messages are displayed 114 times.
It is showed by acpi_memory_register_notify_handler() which is called by
acpi_walk_namespace().
acpi_walk_namespace() parses all of ACPI's namespace and execute
acpi_memory_register_notify_handler(). So, it is called for all of the
device which is defined in namespace. If the parsing device is not memory,
acpi_memhotplug ignores it due to "no match" and will parse next device.
This is normal route, not an exception.

SCSI EH locks door if sdev->locked is set. Sometimes door lock
command fails continuously (e.g. when medium is not present) and as
libata uses EH to acquire sense data, this easily creates a loop where
a failed lock door invokes EH and EH issues lock door on completion.
This patch clears sdev->locked on door lock failure to break this
loop. This problem has been spotted and diagnosed by Unicorn Chang
