  [PATCH] USB: mct_u232
  
  Now that 2.6 has my changes, we can apply them to 2.4. This includes the
  removal of dead code under #ifdef FIX_WRITE_RETURN_CODE_PROBLEM.
  
  This patch fixes the endless loops on disconnect when resubmitting failed
  URBs monopolizes CPU and prevents the disconnect thread from cleaning up.
  
  Note though that because of the error code confusion, the actual technique
  used in 2.4 is different from 2.6. The 2.4 version simply counts errors.
  If too many are received in a row, we stop resubmitting. I consider this
  relatively safe, because closing the line clears the condition, and so
  in the unlikely event of a regression, users are not made to reboot.

  [NETLINK]: Unhash sockets correctly.
  
  netlink_remove() only unhashes sockets contained in the 
  first hash bucket.  This leads to leaking sockets and,
  over time, to bind conflicts which confuse iproute.

  [COMPAT]: TUNSETIFF needs to copy back data after ioctl.
  
  It is defined as a _IOW() which is erroneous, it should
  have been defined as _IORW() but that cannot be changed
  now without breaking all existing applications using this
  ioctl.

  [PATCH] 2.4: fix bogus 440GX rev.C PVR
  
  attached patch fixes completely bogus 440GX PVR I added long time ago
  using preliminary IBM datasheet. This was already fixed in 2.6 but I
  forgot to submit corresponding 2.4 patch.

  [PATCH] USB: fix modem_run
  
  I entered a patch which adds "exclusive_access" lock into 2.4.29, to fix
  devices which cannot handle simultaneous accesses. This caused a regression
  with European ADSL modems. An ioctl USBDEVFS_REAPURB allows a process to enter
  the kernel and wait for USB I/O to finish. Naturally, this should not take
  exclusive_access, or nothing will ever finish.
  
  This patch is essentially the patch by Sergey Vlasov with my additions
  a) to allow ENOTTY returned without taking a lock and b) to filter ENOIOCTLCMD,
  which is improper to leak to userspace.

  [PATCH] USB: hid for ia64
  
  Apparently, the HP rx5670 fails to reboot if a USB keyboard if attached
  without this patch (and the OHCI fix we accepted for 2.4.29).
  
  This bug is better known for its effect on Altix, but SGI ships a magic
  kernel anyhow, so I don't want to use that as justification.
  
  The original patch comes from Jes Sorensen, but then I corrupted his
  idea with my simplifications and a partial backport from 2.6, so if this
  fails do not e-mail him.

  [PATCH] USB: ftdi_sio
  
  Granted, this is a cleanup, and we don't like cleanups in 2.4. But I really
  dislike how the comment managed to detach from the function it described.
  The idiotic error message is quite annoying, too.

  [TG3]: capacitive coupling detection fix
  
  This patch fixes the problem reported in:
  
  http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=110798711911645&w=2
  
  
  The 5700 link problem was caused by reading uninitialized values in sram and
  causing capacitive coupling mode to be enabled by mistake. This patch fixes
  the problem by properly validating the sram contents.

  [PATCH] Kenneth Sumrall: In lp_write(), copy_from_user() is called to copy data into a statically allocated kernel buffer before down_interruptible().
  
  From: Kenneth Sumrall <ken@mvista.com>
  
  In lp_write(), copy_from_user() is called to copy data into a statically
  allocated kernel buffer before down_interruptible() is called.  If a second
  thread of execution comes in between the copy_from_user() and the
  down_interruptible() calls, silent data corruption could result.
