commit 28a821c306889b9f2c3fff49abedc9b2c743eb73 upstream.

This function is largely a duplicate of paste_selection() in
drivers/tty/vt/selection.c, but with its own selection state.  The
speakup selection mechanism should really be merged with vt.

For now, apply the changes from 'TTY: vt, fix paste_selection ldisc
handling', 'tty: Make ldisc input flow control concurrency-friendly',
and 'tty: Fix unsafe vt paste_selection()'.

commit ffed54dced86723f352323f15789d9ad6bee25e1 upstream.

I got a patch from the original author, Fred Brooks, to add a small
settling delay after setting the AI channel multiplexor.  The lack of
delay resulted in unstable or scrambled data on faster processors.

commit d7500135802ca55b3f4e01a16544e8b34082f8c3 upstream.

Input is handled in softirq context, but when pasting we may
need to sleep.  speakup_paste_selection() currently tries to
bodge this by busy-waiting if in_atomic(), but that doesn't
help because the ldisc may also sleep.

For bonus breakage, speakup_paste_selection() changes the
state of current, even though it's not running in process
context.

Move it into a work item and make sure to cancel it on exit.

This makes the follow-on check for psta != NULL pointless and makes
the whole exercise rather pointless. This is another case of why
blindly zero-initializing variables when they are declared is bad.

<title>staging: comedi: usbdux: bug fix for accessing 'ao_chanlist' in private data</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 2704f807f9498054b8153002bafa3e818079e9a5 upstream.

In usbdux_ao_cmd(), the channels for the command are transfered from the
cmd-&gt;chanlist and stored in the private data 'ao_chanlist'. The channel
numbers are bit-shifted when stored so that they become the "command"
that is transfered to the device. The channel to command conversion
results in the 'ao_chanlist' having these values for the channels:

  channel 0 -&gt; ao_chanlist = 0x00
  channel 1 -&gt; ao_chanlist = 0x40
  channel 2 -&gt; ao_chanlist = 0x80
  channel 3 -&gt; ao_chanlist = 0xc0

The problem is, the usbduxsub_ao_isoc_irq() function uses the 'chan' value
from 'ao_chanlist' to access the 'ao_readback' array in the private data.
So instead of accessing the array as 0, 1, 2, 3, it accesses it as 0x00,
0x40, 0x80, 0xc0.

Fix this by storing the raw channel number in 'ao_chanlist' and doing the
bit-shift when creating the command.

commit 268d1e799663b795cba15c64f5d29407786a9dd4 upstream.

According to National Instruments' PCI-DIO-96/PXI-6508/PCI-6503 User
Manual, the physical address in PCI BAR1 needs to be OR'ed with 0x80 and
written to register offset 0xC0 in the "MITE" registers (BAR0).  Do so
during initialization of the National Instruments boards handled by the
"8255_pci" driver.  The boards were previously handled by the
"ni_pcidio" driver, where the initialization was done by `mite_setup()`
in the "mite" module.  The "mite" module comes with too much extra
baggage for the "8255_pci" driver to deal with so use a local, simpler
initialization function.
