The correct sequence is to first request locality and only after
that perform cmd_ready handshake, otherwise the hardware will drop
the subsequent message as from the device point of view the cmd_ready
handshake wasn't performed. Symmetrically locality has to be relinquished
only after going idle
We cannot use go_idle cmd_ready commands via runtime_pm handles
as with the introduction of localities this is no longer an optional
feature, while runtime pm can be not enabled.
Though cmd_ready/go_idle provides power saving feature, it's also part of
TPM2 protocol and should be called explicitly.
Devices that support locality has failed to transmit due to
reserved order of locality request and cmdReady/goIdle handshake.
The cmdReady/goIdle should be performed on the requested locality.
The first patch corrects the locality and power-save order,
adds required polling for completion of goIdl

Subject: [PATCH] lockdep: Fix fs_reclaim warning.
Dave Jones reported fs_reclaim lockdep warnings.
==
if use -G with one cgroup and -e with multiple events, only the first
event has correct cgroup setting, all events from the second will track
system-wide events.
if user want track multiple events for a specific cgroup, user must give
parameters like follow:
$ perf stat -e e1 -e e2 -e e3 -G test,t
Return value of error codes should typically be negative.

Simplify it to call an asm-function instead of pasting 41 insn bytes at
every call site. Also, add alignment to the macro as suggested here:

Fix up the cpufeatures so that only the hardware features are visible in
/proc/cpuinfo. as "ibpb", "ibrs" and "stibp". The virtual features, and
software flags which are only in X86_FEATURE_* because that's the only
way to use alternatives, get masked away. We don't *want* to show that
stuff to all
Measure only inlined asm code, not other functions to have as precise as
possible measured time.

Calling fan related SMM functions implemented by Dell BIOS firmware on Dell
Vostro 3360 freeze kernel for about 500ms.
Unfortunately, it is unlikely for Dell to fix this since the machine
is pretty old, so this commit just disables fan support to make the
system usable
Some Dell machines are broken and some functionality is disabled. Show
warning into dmesg about this fact and allow user via "force" module param
to override brokenness and enable broken functionality.

The scsi command to close tray only starts the motor and does not wait
for the tray to close. Wait until the state chages from TRAY_OPEN so
users do not race with the tray closing.
This looks like inifinte wait but unless the drive is broken it either
closes the tray within a few seconds or report
Thanks for reporting. This issue has been fixed by the below commit in
bpf-next repo, which is waiting to be pulled into net-next.

The Audigy 2 CA0102 chip (but most likely others from the emu10k1 family,
too) has a problem that from time to time it likes to do few DMA reads a
bit beyond its normal allocation and gets very confused if these reads get
blocked by a IOMMU.
