Hi Linus,
This pull has two small fixes:
- The input subsystem contributes entropy in some places where a spinlock is held, but the entropy accounting code only handled callers being in an interrupt or non-atomic process context, but not atomic process context. We fix this by removing an optimization and just calling queue_work() unconditionally.
- Greg accidently sent up a patch not intended for his tree and that had been nack'd, so that's now reverted.
Please pull.
Thanks, Jason
