ACPI: dock: avoid check _STA method

2008-11-10T19:18:01Z

commit 8b59560a3baf2e7c24e0fb92ea5d09eca92805db upstream. ACPI: dock: avoid check _STA method In some BIOSes, every _STA method call will send a notification again, this cause freeze. And in some BIOSes, it appears _STA should be called after _DCK. This tries to avoid calls _STA, and still keep the device present check. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10431 Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Signed-off-by: Len Brown Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

scx200_i2c: Add missing class parameter

commit 4a029abee0f1d69cb0445657d6fa5a38597bd17d upstream The scx200_i2c driver is missing the .class parameter, which means no i2c drivers are willing to probe for devices on the bus and attach to them. Signed-off-by: Len Sorensen Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

DVB: s5h1411: Power down s5h1411 when not in use

2008-11-10T19:17:59Z

commit 11fc9a4a440112b5afc1a99d86ba92d70205a688 upstream. DVB: s5h1411: Power down s5h1411 when not in use Power down the s5h1411 demodulator when not in use (on the Pinnacle 801e, this brings idle power from 123ma down to 84ma).

DVB: s5h1411: Perform s5h1411 soft reset after tuning

2008-11-10T19:17:59Z

commit f0d041e50bc6c8a677922d72b010f80af9b23b18 upstream. DVB: s5h1411: Perform s5h1411 soft reset after tuning If you instruct the tuner to change frequencies, it can take up to 2500ms to get a demod lock. By performing a soft reset after the tuning call (which is consistent with how the Pinnacle 801e Windows driver behaves), you get a demod lock inside of 300ms Signed-off-by: Devin Heitmueller Signed-off-by: Michael Krufky Acked-by: Steven Toth Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ACPI: Always report a sync event after a lid state change

2008-11-10T19:17:55Z

upstream commit df316e939100e789b3c5d4d102619ccf5834bd00 Currently not always an EV_SYN event is reported to userland after the EV_SW SW_LID event has been sent. This is easy to verify by using “input-events” from input-utils and just closing and opening the lid.

libertas: fix buffer overrun

2008-11-10T19:17:54Z

commit 48735d8d8bd701b1e0cd3d49c21e5e385ddcb077 upstream If somebody sends an invalid beacon/probe response, that can trash the whole BSS descriptor. The descriptor is, luckily, large enough so that it cannot scribble past the end of it; it's well above 400 bytes long. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
