While busy-waiting for completion, check the hardware after scheduling;
don't schedule and then immediately check the _timeout_. If the yield()
took a long time (as it does on my OLPC prototype board when it's busy),
we'd report a timeout even though the hardware was now ready.
This fixes it, and also switches the yield() for a cond_resched() because
we don't actually want to be _that_ nice about it. I see nice
tightly-packed SMBus transactions now, rather than waiting for milliseconds
between successive phases.
Actually, we shouldn't be busy-waiting here at all. We should be using
interrupts. That's an exercise for another day though.

I saw an oops down this path when trying to create a new file on a UDF
filesystem which was internally marked as readonly, but mounted rw:
udf_create
udf_new_inode
new_inode
alloc_inode
udf_alloc_inode
udf_new_block
returns EIO due to readonlyness
iput (on error)
udf_put_inode
udf_discard_prealloc
udf_next_aext
udf_current_aext
udf_get_fileshortad
OOPS
the udf_discard_prealloc() path was examining uninitialized fields of the
udf inode.
udf_discard_prealloc() already has this code to short-circuit the discard
path if no extents are preallocated:
if (UDF_I_ALLOCTYPE(inode) == ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_IN_ICB ||
inode->i_size == UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode))
{
return;
}
so if we initialize UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode) = 0 earlier in udf_new_inode,
we won't try to free the (not) preallocated blocks, since this will match
the i_size = 0 set when the inode was initialized.

A patch in -mm kernel correct the parsing of "address resources" of pnpacpi.
Before we assumed it was memory only, but it could be also IO.
But this change show an hidden bug : some resources could be producer type
that are not handled by pnp layer. So we should ignore the producer
resources.
This patch fixes bug 6292 (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6292).
Some devices like PNP0A03 have 0xd00-0xffff and 0x0-0xcf7 as IO producer
resources.
Before correcting "address resources" parsing, it was seen as memory and was
harmless, because nobody tried to reserve this memory range as it should be
IO.
With the correction it become IO resources, and make failed all others device
that want to register IO in this range and use pnp layer (like a ISA sound
card).
The solution is to ignore producer resources

call get_block on those buffers as well. On machines where the page size
is larger than the blocksize, this can result in mmaped files incorrectly

It's better to do resouce collision check before doing memory hot add,
which will touch memory management structures.

check anyway. but checking in memory_hotplug.c will be easy to understand.)

In bugzilla #6941, Jens Kilian reported:
"The function befs_utf2nls (in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c) writes a 0 byte past the
end of a block of memory allocated via kmalloc(), leading to memory
corruption. This happens only for filenames which are pure ASCII and a
multiple of 4 bytes in length. [...]
Without DEBUG_SLAB, this leads to further corruption and hard lockups; I
believe this is the bug which has made kernels later than 2.6.8 unusable
for me. (This must be due to changes in memory management, the bug has
been in the BeFS driver since the time it was introduced (AFAICT).)
Steps to reproduce:
Create a directory (in BeOS, naturally :-) with files named, e.g.,
"1", "22", "333", "4444", ... Mount it in Linux and do an "ls" or "find""
This patch implements the suggested fix. Credits to Jens Kilian for

If we don't find the item we are lookng for, we allocate a new one, and
then grab the lock again and search to see if it has been added while we
did the alloc. If it had been added we need to 'cache_put' the newly
created item that we are never going to use. But as it hasn't been
initialised properly, putting it can cause an oops.
So move the ->init call earlier to that it will always be fully initilised
if we have to put it.
