commit 7c0411d2fabc2e2702c9871ffb603e251158b317 upstream.

We have that bug for years and some users report side effects when fixing it on older hardware.

So revert it for VM_CONTEXT0_PAGE_TABLE_END_ADDR, but keep it for VM 1-15.

<title>ACPI / init: Fix the ordering of acpi_reserve_resources()</title>

<content type='text'>
commit b9a5e5e18fbf223502c0b2264c15024e393da928 upstream.

Since acpi_reserve_resources() is defined as a device_initcall(),
there's no guarantee that it will be executed in the right order
with respect to the rest of the ACPI initialization code.  On some
systems this leads to breakage if, for example, the address range
that should be reserved for the ACPI fixed registers is given to
the PCI host bridge instead if the race is won by the wrong code
path.

Fix this by turning acpi_reserve_resources() into a void function
and calling it directly from within the ACPI initialization sequence.

commit 3c0213d17a09601e0c6c0ae0e27caf70d988290f upstream.

When the v3 hardware sees more than one finger, it uses the semi-mt
protocol to report the touches. However, it currently works when
num_fingers is 0, 1 or 2, but when it is 3 and above, it sends only 1
finger as if num_fingers was 1.

This confuses userspace which knows how to deal with extra fingers
when all the slots are used, but not when some are missing.

commit 414b7e3b9ce8b0577f613e656fdbc36b34b444dd upstream.

The USB mini-driver in rtlwifi, which is used by rtl8192cu, issues a call to
usb_control_msg() with a timeout value of 0. In some instances where the
interface is shutting down, this infinite wait results in a CPU deadlock. A
one second timeout fixes this problem without affecting any normal operations.

commit a81157768a00e8cf8a7b43b5ea5cac931262374f upstream.

The variable "sector" in "raid0_make_request()" was improperly updated
by a call to "sector_div()" which modifies its first argument in place.
Commit 47d68979cc968535cb87f3e5f2e6a3533ea48fbd restored this variable
after the call for later re-use.  Unfortunetly the restore was done after
the referenced variable "bio" was advanced.  This lead to the original
value and the restored value being different.  Here we move this line to
the proper place.

One observed side effect of this bug was discarding a file though
unlinking would cause an unrelated file's contents to be discarded.

commit 6e9eac2dcee5e19f125967dd2be3e36558c42fff upstream.

If any memory allocation in resize_stripes fails we will return
-ENOMEM, but in some cases we update conf-&gt;pool_size anyway.

This means that if we try again, the allocations will be assumed
to be larger than they are, and badness results.

So only update pool_size if there is no error.

This bug was introduced in 2.6.17 and the patch is suitable for
-stable.

Commit 178c2490b99f898efc06d1ad75cadc84f13021a6 ("thermal: step_wise:
cdev only needs update on a new target state") broke driver acerhdf.
That driver abused the step_wise thermal governor until the bang_bang
governor was available, and the optimization broke this usage model.

Kernels v3.12 to v3.18 are affected. In v3.19 the acerhdf driver was
switched to the bang_bang governor and that solved the problem.

For kernels v3.12 to v3.17, the bang_bang governor isn't available
yet so the easiest fix is to revert the optimization.
