[PATCH] staging/lustre/llite: Close atomic_open race with several openers

Right now, if it's an open of a negative dentry, a race is possible with several openers who all try to instantiate/rehash the same dentry and would hit a BUG_ON in d_add. But in fact if we got a negative dentry in atomic_open, that means we just revalidated it so no point in talking to MDS at all,

[PATCH] staging: slicoss: handle allocation failure in slic_init_adapter

The memory allocation in slic_init_adapter() can fail. Return an error in this case and unwind properly. Also make sure that the allocated memory is properly freed in case of an error in the calling probe() function. By doing this also replace the alloc() followed by memset to zero the memory with

[PATCH] staging: rtl8723au: hal: check BT_Active and BT_State with correct bit pattern

From: Colin Ian King BT_Active and BT_State are being masked with 0x00ff so it the subsequent comparisons with 0x are therefore a buggy check. Instead, check them against 0x00ff. Unfortunately I couldn't find a datasheet or hardware to see if 0x is an expected invalid bi
