This reverts commits 61e00655e9, 73f8645db1 and 8e22ecb603:
"Input: introduce BTN/ABS bits for drums and guitars"
"HID: wiimote: add support for Guitar-Hero drums"
"HID: wiimote: add support for Guitar-Hero guitars"
The extra new ABS_xx values resulted in ABS_MAX no longer being a
power-of-two, which broke the comparison logic. It also caused the
ioctl numbers to overflow into the next byte, causing problems for that.
We'll try again for 3.13.

When transitioning away from vgacon the system tries to save the

off to fbcon (or whatever comes afterwards).
The recent change
commit 81b5c7bc8d
Author: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>
Date: Wed Aug 28 09:39:08 2013 -0600
i915: Update VGA arbiter support for newer devices
caused i915 to disable VGA memory decode for the IGD when i915 is
initializing. Unfortunately that happens before the vgacon->fbcon
handoff so vgacon_save_screen() will read out all ones from the
VGA memory.
After the handoff fbcon will inherit the bogus state from vgacon,
and pre-fills the fb with matching contents. The end result is
a white rectangle in the top left corner of the screen, the size
of which matches the now inactive VGA console.
To remedy the situation delay the disabling of VGA memory until
the vgacon->fbcon handoff has happened.
Also rename i915_enable_vga to i915_enable_vga_mem to make
the relationship between these functions clearer.

pNFS data servers are not mounted in the normal sense as there is no associated

TCP receive window handling is multi staged.
A socket has a memory budget, static or dynamic, in sk_rcvbuf.
Because we do not really know how this memory budget translates to
a TCP window (payload), TCP announces a small initial window
(about 20 MSS).
When a packet is received, we increase TCP rcv_win depending
on the payload/truesize ratio of this packet. Good citizen
packets give a hint that it's reasonable to have rcv_win = sk_rcvbuf/2
This heuristic takes place in tcp_grow_window()
Problem is : We currently call tcp_grow_window() only for in-order
packets.
This means that reorders or packet losses stop proper grow of
rcv_win, and senders are unable to benefit from fast recovery,
or proper reordering level detection.
Really, a packet being stored in OFO queue is not a bad citizen.
It should be part of the game as in-order packets.
In our traces, we very often see sender is limited by linux small
receive windows, even if linux hosts use autotuning (DRS) and should
allow rcv_win to grow to ~3MB.
