Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: sh: intc - add support for SH7760
Problem Details: This patch converts the cpu specific interrupt setup code for sh7760 from ipr + intc2 to intc. New vectors are also added to match the information provided by the datasheet. Vectors for IRQ4-IRQ7 are enabled by default. Use plat_irq_setup_pins() if pins IRL0-3 should be used in IRLM mode. The patch a...

Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: [NET]: Fix two issues wrt. SO_BINDTODEVICE.
Problem Details: 1) Comments suggest that setting optlen to zero will unbind the socket from whatever device it might be attached to. This hasn't been the case since at least 2.2.x because the first thing this function does is return -EINVAL if 'optlen' is less than sizeof(int). This check also means t...

Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: Correctly close old nfsd/lockd sockets.
Problem Details: Commit aaf68cfbf2241d24d46583423f6bff5c47e088b3 added a bias to sk_inuse, so this test for an unused socket now fails. So no sockets get closed because they are old (they might get closed if the client closed them). This bug has existed since 2.6.21-rc1. Thanks to Wolfgang Walter for finding and rep...
