This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled

    powerpc/gpio: Fix the wrong GPIO input data on MPC8572/MPC8536

to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree 
which can be found at:

 http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue

This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.15.

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please 
reply to this email.

Subject: powerpc/gpio: Fix the wrong GPIO input data on MPC8572/MPC8536

commit 1aeef303b5d9e243c41d5b80f8bb059366514a10 upstream.

For MPC8572/MPC8536, the status of GPIOs defined as output
cannot be determined by reading GPDAT register, so the code
use shadow data register instead. But the code may give the
wrong status of GPIOs defined as input under some scenarios:

1. If some pins were configured as inputs and were asserted
high before booting the kernel, the shadow data has been
initialized with those pin values.
2. Some pins have been configured as output first and have
been set to the high value, then reconfigured as input.

The above cases will make the shadow data for those input
pins to be set to high. Then reading the pin status will
always return high even if the actual pin status is low.

The code should eliminate the effects of the shadow data to
the input pins, and the status of those pins should be
read directly from GPDAT.
