5c34050188 Coccinelle: Add iterators/list_entry_update.cocci
list_for_each_entry uses its first argument to get from one element of
the list to the next, so it is usually not a good idea to reassign it.
The first rule finds such a reassignment and the second rule checks
that there is a path from the reassignment back to the top of the loop.

afc48a82fa Coccinelle: Add iterators/itnull.cocci
Many iterators have the property that the first argument is always bound
to a real list element, never NULL.  False positives arise for some
iterators that do not have this property, or in cases when the loop
cursor is reassigned.  The latter should only happen when the matched
code is on the way to a loop exit (break, goto, or return).

Find missing unlocks.  This semantic match considers the specific case
where the unlock is missing from an if branch, and there is a lock
before the if and an unlock after the if.  False positives are due to

Fix this by checking if the kernel source tree is the root of the git or
hg repository. No fix for svn: If the kernel source is not tracked in
the svn repository, it works as expected, otherwise determining the
'repository root' is not really a defined task.

7080e47bb2 kbuild: don't include `check-lxdialog' ldflags in global HOST_LOADLIBES
On BSD systems, `check-lxdialog' would select -lcurses as the default
curses library which would conflict with -lncurses at runtime: curses'
compatible symbols are getting handled by the system's curses library while the
ncurses-specific symbols are getting handled by the ports' ncurses.

This fixes `nconf' segmentation fault on these systems.

a72f3e2b82 nconfig: add search support
Remove the old hotkeys feature, and replace it by an interactive string
search.
From nconfig help:

Searching: pressing '/' triggers interactive search mode.
           nconfig performs a case insensitive search for the string
           in the menu prompts (no regex support).
           Pressing the up/down keys highlights the previous/next
           matching item. Backspace removes one character from the
           match string. Pressing either '/' again or ESC exits
           search mode. All other keys behave normally.

Miscellaneous other changes (including Rundy's and Justin's input).

3643f849d7 kconfig: fix segfault when detecting recursive dependency
Following sample Kconfig generated a segfault:

config FOO
        bool
        select PERF_EVENTS if HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT

config PERF_EVENTS
        bool

config HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT
        bool
        depends on PERF_EVENTS

Fix by reverting back to a valid property if there was no
property on the stack of symbols.

The above pattern were seen in sh Kconfig.
A fix for the Kconfig file has been sent to the sh folks.

84062dd3a6 kconfig: fix savedefconfig with choice marked optional
savedefconfig failed to save the correct minimal config
when it encountered a choice marked optional.

Consider following minimal configuration:
$cat Kconfig
choice
	prompt "choice"
	optional

config A
	bool "a"

config B
	bool "b"

endchoice

$cat .config | grep -v ^#
CONFIG_A=y

$conf --savedefconfig=defconfig Kconfig

would before this fix result in an empty file, because
kconfig would assume that CONFIG_A=y is a default value.
But because the choice is optional the default is that
both A and B are =n.

Fix so we handle optional choices correct.

a64b44ead0 kconfig: fix tristate choice with minimal config
If a minimal config did not specify the value
of all choice values, the resulting configuration
could have wrong values.

Consider following example:
config M
        def_bool y
        option modules
choice
        prompt "choice list"
config A
        tristate "a"
config B
	tristate "b"
endchoice

With a defconfig like this:
CONFIG_M=y
CONFIG_A=y

The resulting configuration would have

    CONFIG_A=m

which was unexpected.

The problem was not not all choice values were set and thus
kconfig calculated a wrong value.

The fix is to set all choice values when we
read a defconfig files.

conf_set_all_new_symbols() is refactored such that
random choice values are now handled by a dedicated function.
And new choice values are set by set_all_choice_values().

This was not the minimal fix, but the fix that resulted
in the most readable code.

6a841528d2 param: silence .init.text references from param ops
Ideally, we'd check that it was only the "set" function which was __init,
and that the permissions were r/o.  But that's a little hard.

b998e001e6 checkpatch: fix extraneous EXPORT_SYMBOL* warnings
These are caused by checkpatch incorrectly parsing its internal
representation of a statement block for struct's (or anything else that is
a statement block encapsulated in {}'s that also ends with a ';').  Fix
this by properly parsing a statement block.

An example:

	+struct dummy_type dummy = {
	+	.foo	= "baz",
	+};
	+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dummy);
	+
	+static int dummy_func(void)
	+{
	+	return -EDUMMYCODE;
	+}
	+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dummy_func);

	WARNING: EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); should immediately \
		follow its function/variable
	#19: FILE: dummy.c:4:
	+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dummy);

The above warning is issued when it should not be.

09ef87255d checkpatch: warn about unexpectedly long msleep's
As explained in Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt, msleep's of < 20ms
may sleep for as long as 20ms.  Caller's of msleep(1) or msleep(2), etc
are likely not to expect this quirky behavior - warn them.

1a15a25086 checkpatch: prefer usleep_range over udelay
When possible, sleeping is (usually) better than delaying; however, don't
bother callers of udelay < 10us, as those cases are generally not worth
the switch to usleep

5150bda43c checkpatch: change externals to globals
Make error message say 'ERROR: do not initialise globals to 0 or NULL'
rather than 'ERROR: do not initialise externals to 0 or NULL'.  Makes more
sense in the context since there is an extern keyword in C and that is a
global declaration within the scope of the current file.
