Driver core: platform_driver_probe(), can save codespace
This defines a new platform_driver_probe() method allowing the driver's
probe() method, and its support code+data, to safely live in __init
sections for typical system configurations.
Many system-on-chip processors could benefit from this API, to the tune
of recovering hundreds to thousands of bytes per driver. That's memory
which is currently wasted holding code which can never be called after
system startup, yet can not be removed. It can't be removed because of
the linkage requirement that pointers to init section code (like, ideally,
probe support) must not live in other sections (like driver method tables)
after those pointers would be invalid.

Take return value of sysfs_create_group() into account. That function got

to fail on CPU_ONLINE notification do the sysfs group creation on
CPU_UP_PREPARE notification.
Also remember if creation succeeded in a bitmask. So it's possible to know
whether it's legal to call sysfs_remove_group or not.
In addition some other minor stuff:
- since CPU_UP_PREPARE might fail add CPU_UP_CANCELED handling as well.
- use hotcpu_notifier instead of register_hotcpu_notifier.
- #ifdef code that isn't needed in the !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU case.
Move the call to platform_notify_remove() to after the call to
bus_remove_device(), where it belongs. It's bogus to notify the platform
of removal while drivers are still attached to the device and possibly
still operating since the platform might use this callback to tear down
some resources used by the driver (ACPI bits, iommu table, ...)

I finally did as you suggested and added the notifier to the struct
bus_type itself. There are still problems to be expected is something
attaches to a bus type where the code can hook in different struct
device sub-classes (which is imho a big bogosity but I won't even try to
argue that case now) but it will solve nicely a number of issues I've
had so far.
That also means that clients interested in registering for such
notifications have to do it before devices are added and after bus types
are registered. Fortunately, most bus types that matter for the various
usage scenarios I have in mind are registerd at postcore_initcall time,
which means I have a really nice spot at arch_initcall time to add my
notifiers.
There are 4 notifications provided. Device being added (before hooked to
the bus) and removed (failure of previous case or after being unhooked
from the bus), along with driver being bound to a device and about to be
unbound.
The usage I have for these are:
- The 2 first ones are used to maintain a struct device_ext that is
hooked to struct device.firmware_data. This structure contains for now a
pointer to the Open Firmware node related to the device (if any), the
NUMA node ID (for quick access to it) and the DMA operations pointers &
iommu table instance for DMA to/from this device. For bus types I own
(like IBM VIO or EBUS), I just maintain that structure directly from the
bus code when creating the devices. But for bus types managed by generic
code like PCI or platform (actually, of_platform which is a variation of
platform linked to Open Firmware device-tree), I need this notifier.
- The other two ones have a completely different usage scenario. I have
cases where multiple devices and their drivers depend on each other. For
example, the IBM EMAC network driver needs to attach to a MAL DMA engine
which is a separate device, and a PHY interface which is also a separate
device. They are all of_platform_device's (well, about to be with my
upcoming patches) but there is no say in what precise order the core
will "probe" them and instanciate the various modules. The solution I
found for that is to have the drivers for emac to use multithread_probe,
and wait for a driver to be bound to the target MAL and PHY control
devices (the device-tree contains reference to the MAL and PHY interface
nodes, which I can then match to of_platform_devices). Right now, I've
been polling, but with that notifier, I can more cleanly wait (with a
timeout of course).

instead of four.
While we are at it: make_slot_name() is just a wrapper around snprintf()

Finally this fixes a possible bug waiting for someone to hit it. There were

They had the same types as the target of the allocation, but nevertheless

PCI: switch pci_{enable,disable}_device() to be nestable
Changes the pci_{enable,disable}_device() functions to work in a
nested basis, so that eg, three calls to enable_device() require three
calls to disable_device().
The reason for this is to simplify PCI drivers for
multi-interface/capability devices. These are devices that cram more
than one interface in a single function. A relevant example of that is
the Wireless [USB] Host Controller Interface (similar to EHCI) [see
http://www.intel.com/technology/comms/wusb/whci.htm].
In these kind of devices, multiple interfaces are accessed through a
single bar and IRQ line. For that, the drivers map only the smallest
area of the bar to access their register banks and use shared IRQ
handlers.
However, because the order at which those drivers load cannot be known
ahead of time, the sequence in which the calls to pci_enable_device()
and pci_disable_device() cannot be predicted. Thus:
between steps 3 and 4, driver B would loose access to it's device,
even if it didn't intend to.
By using this modification, the device won't be disabled until all the
callers to enable() have called disable().
This is implemented by replacing 'struct pci_dev->is_enabled' from a
bitfield to an atomic use count. Each caller to enable increments it,
each caller to disable decrements it. When the count increments from 0
to 1, __pci_enable_device() is called to actually enable the
device. When it drops to zero, pci_disable_device() actually does the
disabling.
We keep the backend __pci_enable_device() for pci_default_resume() to
use and also change the sysfs method implementation, so that userspace
enabling/disabling the device doesn't disable it one time too much.

PCI: Block on access to temporarily unavailable pci device
The existing implementation of pci_block_user_cfg_access() was recently
criticised for providing out of date information and for returning errors
on write, which applications won't be expecting.
This reimplementation uses a global wait queue and a bit per device.
I've open-coded prepare_to_wait() / finish_wait() as I could optimise
it significantly by knowing that the pci_lock protected us at all points.
It looked a bit funny to be doing a spin_unlock_irqsave(); schedule(),
so I used spin_lock_irq() for the _user versions of pci_read_config and
pci_write_config. Not carrying a flags pointer around made the code
much less nasty.
Attempts to block an already blocked device hit a BUG() and attempts to
unblock an already unblocked device hit a WARN(). If we need to block
access to a device from userspace, it's because it's unsafe for even
another bit of the kernel to access the device. An attempt to block
a device for a second time means we're about to access the device to
perform some other operation, which could provoke undefined behaviour
from the device.

Altix: Add initial ACPI IO support
First phase in introducing ACPI support to SN.
In this phase, when running with an ACPI capable PROM,
the DSDT will define the root busses and all SN nodes
(SGIHUB, SGITIO). An ACPI bus driver will be registered
for the node devices, with the acpi_pci_root_driver being
used for the root busses. An ACPI vendor descriptor is
now used to pass platform specific information for both
nodes and busses, eliminating the need for the current
SAL calls. Also, with ACPI support, SN fixup code is no longer
needed to initiate the PCI bus scans, as the acpi_pci_root_driver
does that.
However, to maintain backward compatibility with non-ACPI capable
PROMs, none of the current 'fixup' code can been deleted, though
much restructuring has been done. For example, the bulk of the code
in io_common.c is relocated code that is now common regardless
of what PROM is running, while io_acpi_init.c and io_init.c contain
routines specific to an ACPI or non ACPI capable PROM respectively.
A new pci bus fixup platform vector has been created to provide
a hook for invoking platform specific bus fixup from pcibios_fixup_bus().

PCI: quirks: fix the festering mess that claims to handle IDE quirks
The number of permutations of crap we do is amazing and almost all of it
has the wrong effect in 2.6.
At the heart of this is the PCI SFF magic which says that compatibility
mode PCI IDE controllers use ISA IRQ routing and hard coded addresses
not the BAR values. The old quirks variously clears them, sets them,
adjusts them and then IDE ignores the result.
In order to drive all this garbage out and to do it portably we need to
handle the SFF rules directly and properly. Because we know the device
BAR 0-3 are not used in compatibility mode we load them with the values
that are implied (and indeed which many controllers actually
thoughtfully put there in this mode anyway).
This removes special cases in the IDE layer and libata which now knows
that bar 0/1/2/3 always contain the correct address. It means our
resource allocation map is accurate from boot, not "mostly accurate"
after ide is loaded, and it shoots lots of code. There is also lots more
code and magic constant knowledge to shoot once this is in and settled.

Fix jiffies.h comment
jiffies.h includes a comment informing that jiffies_64 must be read with the
assistance of the xtime_lock seqlock. The comment text, however, calls
jiffies_64 "not volatile", which should probably read "not atomic".

[PATCH] r8169: Fix iteration variable sign
This changes the type of variable "i" in rtl8169_init_one()
from "unsigned int" to "int". "i" is checked for < 0 later,
which can never happen for "unsigned". This results in broken
error handling.

[ARM] 3943/1: share declaration of struct pxa2xx_udc_mach_info between multiple platforms
Move declaration of struct pxa2xx_udc_mach_info from
include/asm-arm/arch-pxa/udc.h to new file
include/asm-arm/mach/udc_pxa2xx.h.
This allow us to use this structure with
multiple platforms - pxa and ixp4xx. USB
device controller used in pxa25x is the same
as controller used in ixp4xx.
