Feb. Fedora Kernel Patch Report

It's been a while since I sent one of these. Mostly that's due to the overlap between which upstream stable version we're using in Fedora across the releases, and how fast those have been happening upstream. We're settled on 3.13.y now, and with 3.14-rc4 out there things have calmed down enough to take stock again. Here's the patches we have on top of 3.13.5. josh fs-proc-devtree-remove_proc_entry.patch - Upstream commit c1d867a54d426b45da017fbe8e585f8a3064ce8d drm-radeon-Disable-writeback-by-default-on-ppc.patch - This is superseded by upstream commit ea31bf697d27270188a93cd78cf9de4bc968aca3 but that seems to be a bit big for a stable backport dm-cache-policy-mq_fix-large-scale-table-allocation-bug.patch (rhbz 993744) - Still pending upstream (no idea why...) sunrpc-create-a-new-dummy-pipe-for-gssd-to-hold-open.patch sunrpc-replace-gssd_running-with-more-reliable-check.patch nfs-check-gssd-running-before-krb5i-auth.patch - Added to fix a 15sec mount delay - Upstream commits 4b9a445e3eeb8bd9278b1ae51c1b3a651e370cd6 89f842435c630f8426f414e6030bc2ffea0d6f81 6aa23d76a7b549521a03b63b6d5b7880ea87eab7 respectively rpc_pipe-remove-the-clntXX-dir-if-creating-the-pipe-fails.patch sunrpc-add-an-info-file-for-the-dummy-gssd-pipe.patch rpc_pipe-fix-cleanup-of-dummy-gssd-directory-when-notification-fails.patch - Fixes for some of the patches above (rhbz 1037793) - Upstream commits 3396f92f8be606ea485b0a82d4e7749a448b013b e2f0c83a9de331d9352185ca3642616c13127539 23e66ba97127ff3b064d4c6c5138aa34eafc492f respectively elantech-Properly-differentiate-between-clickpads-an.patch (rhbz 1030802) - Upstream commit c15bdfd5b9831e4cab8cfc118243956e267dd30e KVM-MMU-handle-invalid-root_hpa-at-__direct_map.patch (rhbz 924916) - Upstream commit 989c6b34f6a9480e397b170cc62237e89bf4fdb9 - Probably should grab 37f6a4e237303549c8676dfe1fd1991ceab512eb too KVM-VMX-fix-use-after-free-of-vmx-loaded_vmcs.patch (rhbz 1047892) - Upstream commit 26a865f4aa8e66a6d94958de7656f7f1b03c6c56 0001-Input-wacom-make-sure-touch_max-is-set-for-touch-dev.patch 0002-Input-wacom-add-support-for-three-new-Intuos-devices.patch 0003-Input-wacom-add-reporting-of-SW_MUTE_DEVICE-events.patch - rhbz 1003167 1046238 - Upstream commits 1d0d6df02750b4a6f466768cbfbf860e24f4c8d4 b5fd2a3e92ca5c8c1f3c20d31ac5daed3ec4d604 961794a00eab03f4344b7d5e825e8e789e55da87 Input-ALPS-add-support-for-Dolphin-devices.patch (rhbz 953211) - Upstream commit ee65d4b36de8ddf4467f788faa5d8ddd1bfcdaa2 xhci-fix-resume-issues-on-renesas-chips-in-samsung-laptops.patch (rhbz 950630) - Upstream commit 1aa9578c1a9450fb21501c4f549f5b1edb557e6d - Oddly not queued for stable? cgroup-fixes.patch (rhbz 1045755) - Upstream commits 0ab02ca8f887908152d1a96db5130fc661d36a1e - There was a 3.12 version of this patch sent to stable list from Michal Hocko.
