According to the Intel PCI experts it's not safe to check any
other field than vendor ID for 0x when doing PCI scans
to see if the device exists.
Several of the early PCI scans violated this. I changed
them all to always check the vendor ID first.

Sorry if you got this message twice. I have some issues with my mail

I connect to a router which is 200mt away so i always connect with low signal.
With kernels up to 3.3.x I hadn't any problem with the rt28

With the recent talk of performance regressions, I decided to take a
look a tracepoints. For those that are not familiar with them, they are
static locations scattered throughout the kernel that let developers

Ok, good.
Any thoughts on how to go about

Before you go too far down this path, can you elaborate on what
exactly you mean by the above?
I
NAK.
I personally think commit be9f4a44e7d41cee should be reverted until it
is fixed. Let me explain what all I believe it broke and how.
Old callchain of the creation of the 'equivalent' socket previous to
the patch in question just for reference:

The result of converting an integer value to another signed integer
type that's unable to represent the original value is implementation
defined. (See notes in section 6.3.1.3 of the C standard.)
In match_number(), the result of simple_strtol() (which returns type
long) is assigned to a value of

Agreed, I think it should be "depends on LEDS_CLASS" rather than select
it if there is a hard dependency that cannot be fixed with extr
If blk_init_queue fails, we do not call put_disk on the current dr

After commit 3f9a5aa ("floppy: Cleanup disk->queue before caling
put_disk() if add_disk() was never called"), if something fails in the
add_disk loop, we unconditionally set disks[dr]->queue to NULL. But
that's wrong, since we may have succesfully done an add_disk on some of
the drives previously i
Following this are fixes for bugs I noticed on floppy driver, and some
extra cleanups.
v2: separate fixes, and incorporate suggestions by Vivek Goyal.
also I splitted the cleanups from fixes.

The check "if (disks[dr]->queue)" check is bogus, if we reach there
for each dr should exist an queue allocated (note that we decrement dr
first on entering the loop).
