Florian Mickler fc61ccd35f [media] vp7045: fix buffer setup
dvb_usb_device_init calls the frontend_attach method of this driver which
uses vp7045_usb_ob. In order to have a buffer ready in vp7045_usb_op, it has to
be allocated before that happens.

Luckily we can use the whole private data as the buffer as it gets separately
allocated on the heap via kzalloc in dvb_usb_device_init and is thus apt for
use via usb_control_msg.

This fixes a
	BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000001e78

reported by Tino Keitel and diagnosed by Dan Carpenter.

commit 66b37c6777 vga_switcheroo: split switching into two stages

which did not take into account to duplicate the !active check in the split-off

Fix this by factoring that check out of stage1 into the debugfs_write routine.

Florian Mickler e7ee762cf0 iwl3945: queue the right work if the scan needs to be aborted
iwl3945's scan_completed calls into the mac80211 stack which triggers a
warn on if there is no scan outstanding.

This can be avoided by not calling scan_completed but abort_scan in
iwl3945_request_scan  in the done: branch of the function which is used
as an error out.

The done: branch seems to be an error-out branch, as, for example, if
iwl_is_ready(priv) returns false  the done: branch is executed.

NOTE:
I'm not familiar with the driver at all.
I just quickly scanned as a reaction to

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17722

the users of scan_completed in the  iwl3945 driver and noted the odd
discrepancy between the comment above this instance and the comment in
mac80211 scan_completed function.

Florian Mickler c128ec2920 e1000e: register pm_qos request on hardware activation
The pm_qos_add_request call has to register the pm_qos request with the pm_qos
susbsystem before first use of the pm_qos request via
pm_qos_update_request.

As pm_qos changed to use plists there is no benefit in registering and
unregistering the pm_qos request on ifup/ifdown and thus we move the
registering into e1000_open and the unregistering in e1000_close.

This fixes the following warning:

Florian Mickler 0fa0559900 scripts/get_maintainer.pl: default to not include unspecified tags
This changes the default of the option --git-all-signature-types to be
disabled by default.

The effect being, that only certain (currently Signed-Off-By:, Acked-by:
and Reviewed-By:) tags are used to get adresses of potential maintainers.

Motivated is this change by the desire to not 'spam' people unnecessary: A
Tested-By or a Reported-By is not ment as a hint that those people want
to/are able to review patches to the code in question.

In a quest to find resilient statistics for this i came up with this:

I produced a list of all the tag-signers not already covered with a
signed-off/acked/reviewed tag somewhere in the last year of git history.

Those were 650 addresses of "assumed non-developers".

And to check if those "assumed non-developers" are professional
testers/reporters worth cc'ing, i then counted their total appearences
in the git log:

469 were mentioned only once.
123 were mentioned twice.
38 three times
8 four times
5 six times
5 five times
1 eight times
1 fourteen times

I believe this supports my thesis, that the ''non-maintainer-tags'' are
not actively useful for patch-review.  (except probably the guy mentioned
fourteen times...)

But of course one could also find arguments to poke holes in this
statistics, for example does this statistic not include code-locality: A
tested-by on a patch that touches some specific piece of code can be more
worth than a signed-off in another part of the tree.

But...  let's play it safe and let's err on the "safe" side meaning to not
spam those people when in doubt.  We already have the signed-off's and
Maintainers file.  So this should be ok.  And if need be, the maintainers
can always forward the patch.

[i probably could make a diploma thesis out of this changelog :)]

Florian Mickler d9664741e0 net/wireless/Kconfig: clarify the description for CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS
Current setup with hal and NetworkManager will fail to work
without newest hal version with this config option disabled.

Although this will solve itself by time, at the moment it is
dishonest to say that we don't know any software that uses it,
if there are many many people relying on old hal versions.
