This turns out to be a genuine bug.  The queue lock and xmit lock are
intentionally taken out of order.  Two things are supposed to prevent
dead-locks from occuring:

1) When we hold the queue_lock we're supposed to only do try_lock on the
tx_lock.

2) We always drop the queue_lock after taking the tx_lock and before doing
anything else.

This path obviously breaks assumption 1) and therefore can lead to ABBA
dead-locks.

I've looked at the history and there seems to be no reason for the lock
to be held at all in dev_watchdog_up.  The lock appeared in day one and
even there it was unnecessary.  In fact, people added __dev_watchdog_up
precisely in order to get around the tx lock there.

The function dev_watchdog_up is already serialised by rtnl_lock since
its only caller dev_activate is always called under it.

So here is a simple patch to remove the tx lock from dev_watchdog_up.
In 2.6.19 we can eliminate the unnecessary __dev_watchdog_up and
replace it with dev_watchdog_up.

`make headers_check' wants to go and write stuff in /lib/modules, which
requires root, whic is unfortunate.

In fact, there's no _particular_ reason for headers_install to put it there
either -- it can go into a subdirectory of the build tree in both cases.
It's not intended to go directly into /usr/include, which is why we didn't
put it there -- and we certainly don't want people screwing around with
symlinking to it.  It's for distributors to take away and do stuff with, so
leaving it in $(objtree) is fine, even in the headers_install case.

for that; it just seemed reasonable.

successful.

[PATCH] IPMI: Fix oops on ipmi_msghandler removal for non ipmi systems

When the ipmi_si module is loaded on a system without any ipmi device, it
fails with nodev.  It would be fine if all resources were freed.  A call to
device_unregister() is missing, resulting to a oops when you remove the
ipmi_msghandler.

MTD: Fix bug in fixup_convert_atmel_pri

The memset() in fixup_convert_atmel_pri is supposed to zero out
everything except the first 5 bytes in *extp, but it ends up zeroing
out something way outside the struct instead. Fix this potentially
dangerous code by casting the pointer to char * before doing
arithmetic.
