firmware loader: allow builtin firmware load even if usermodehelper is disabled
In commit a144c6a6c924 ("PM: Print a warning if firmware is requested
when tasks are frozen") we not only printed a warning if somebody tried
to load the firmware when tasks are frozen - we also failed the load.
But that check was done before the check for built-in firmware, and then
when we disallowed usermode helpers during bootup (commit 288d5abec831:
"Boot up with usermodehelper disabled"), that actually means that
built-in modules can no longer load their firmware even if the firmware
is built in too. Which used to work, and some people depended on it for
the R100 driver.
So move the test for usermodehelper_is_disabled() down, to after
checking the built-in firmware.
This should fix:

probably a design mistake, but it's what it is now. This causes
errors if the system call as to be restarted.

1. The function will needlessly bail out without decrementing back the
runtime PM reference counter.
2. wl1271_power_on only checks if wl1271_power_on return value is
negative. This means that wl1271_power_on will continue even if
wl1271_sdio_power_on bailed out. As a result, sdio transactions will

Paul Walmsley reports that enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ reveals 'IRQ
handler type mismatch' errors:
IRQ handler type mismatch for IRQ 74

and the reason is that setting IRQF_ONESHOT will now result in those
interrupt handlers having different IRQF flags, and thus being
unsharable. So the commit log in the reverted commit:
"Since it is required for those users and
there is no difference for others it makes sense to add this flag
unconditionally."
is simply not true: there may not be any difference from a "actions at
irq time", but there is a *big* difference wrt this flag testing irq
management (see __setup_irq() in kernel/irq/manage.c).
One solution may be to stop verifying IRQF_ONESHOT in __setup_irq(), but
right now the safe course of action is to revert the change. Let's
revisit this in a later merge window.

pty_unix98_shutdown() is used there as ->shutdown.
So tty_operations->remove of pty (i.e. pty_unix98_remove()) is never

This patch is kind of a hackish way. The problem lies in ->install. We
allocate there another tty (so-called tty->link). So ->install is
called once, but ->remove twice, for both tty and tty->link. The fix
here is to count both tty and tty->link and divide the count by 2 for

And to have ->remove called, let's make tty_driver_remove_tty() global

8250: Fix race condition in serial8250_backup_timeout().
This is to fix an issue where output will suddenly become very slow.
The problem occurs on 8250 UARTS with the hardware bug UART_BUG_THRE.
BACKGROUND
For normal UARTs (without UART_BUG_THRE): When the serial core layer
gets new transmit data and the transmitter is idle, it buffers the
data and calls the 8250s' serial8250_start_tx() routine which will
simply enable the TX interrupt in the IER register and return. This
should immediately fire a THRE interrupt and begin transmitting the
data.
For buggy UARTs (with UART_BUG_THRE): merely enabling the TX interrupt
in IER does not necessarily generate a new THRE interrupt.
Therefore, a background timer periodically checks to see if there is
pending data, and starts transmission if that is the case.
The bug happens on SMP systems when the system has nothing to transmit,
the transmit interrupt is disabled and the following sequence occurs:
- CPU0: The background timer routine serial8250_backup_timeout()
starts and saves the state of the interrupt enable register (IER)
and then disables all interrupts in IER. NOTE: The transmit interrupt
(TI) bit is saved as disabled.
- CPU1: The serial core gets data to transmit, grabs the port lock and
calls serial8250_start_tx() which enables the TI in IER.
- CPU0: serial8250_backup_timeout() waits for the port lock.
- CPU1: finishes (with TI enabled) and releases the port lock.
- CPU0: serial8250_backup_timeout() calls the interrupt routine which
will transmit the next fifo's worth of data and then restores the
IER from the previously saved value (TI disabled).
At this point, as long as the serial core has more transmit data
buffered, it will not call serial8250_start_tx() again and the
background timer routine will slowly transmit the data.
The fix is to have serial8250_start_tx() get the port lock before
it saves the IER state and release it after restoring IER. This will
prevent serial8250_start_tx() from running in parallel.

This patch adds support for the Rosewill RC-305 four-port PCI serial
