[MTD] driver model updates
Update driver model support in the MTD framework, so it fits
better into the current udev-based hotplug framework:
- Each mtd_info now has a device node. MTD drivers should set
the dev.parent field to point to the physical device, before
setting up partitions or otherwise declaring MTDs.
- Those device nodes always map to /sys/class/mtdX device nodes,
which no longer depend on MTD_CHARDEV.
- Those mtdX sysfs nodes have a "starter set" of attributes;
it's not yet sufficient to replace /proc/mtd.
- Enabling MTD_CHARDEV provides /sys/class/mtdXro/ nodes and the
/sys/class/mtd*/dev attributes (for udev, mdev, etc).
- Include a MODULE_ALIAS_CHARDEV_MAJOR macro. It'll work with
udev creating the /dev/mtd* nodes, not just a static rootfs.
So the sysfs structure is pretty much what you'd expect, except
that readonly chardev nodes are a bit quirky.

Where OOBx is (prepad, ECC, postpad). However, the current "raw" routines
use a traditional layout -- data OOB, disregarding the prepad and postpad
values -- so when they're used with that type of ECC hardware, those calls
mix up the data and OOB. Which means, in particular, that bad block
tables won't be found on startup, with data corruption and related chaos
ensuing.
The current syndrome-based drivers in mainline all seem to use one chunk
per page; presumably they haven't noticed such bugs.

USB: storage: Unusual USB device Prolific 2507 variation added
The "c-enter" USB to Toshiba 1.8" IDE enclosure needs special treatment
to work flawlessly. This patch is absolutely trivial, as the integrated
USB-IDE bridge is already identified to be an "unusual" device, only the
bcdDevice is different (lower) to the bcdDeviceMin already included in
the kernel.
It is a Prolific 2507 bridge.

USB: Option: let cdc-acm handle Sony Ericsson F3507g / Dell 5530
The generic cdc-acm driver is now the best one to handle Sony Ericsson
F3507g-based devices (which the Dell 5530 is a rebrand of), now that all
the pieces are in place (ie, cac477e8f1038c41b6f29d3161ce351462ef3df7).
Removing the IDs from option allows cdc-acm to handle the device.

USB: EHCI: expedite unlinks when the root hub is suspended
This patch (as1225) fixes a bug in ehci-hcd. The condition for
whether unlinked QHs can become IDLE should not be that the controller
is halted, but rather that the controller isn't running. In other
words when the root hub is suspended, the hardware doesn't own any
QHs.
This fixes a problem that can show up during hibernation: If a QH is
only partially unlinked when the root hub is frozen, then when the
root hub is thawed the QH won't be in the IDLE state. As a result it
can't be used properly for new URB submissions.

USB: EHCI: Fix isochronous URB leak
ehci-hcd uses usb_get_urb() and usb_put_urb() in an unbalanced way causing
isochronous URB's kref.counts incrementing once per usb_submit_urb() call.
The culprit is *usb being set to NULL when usb_put_urb() is called after URB
is given back.
Due to other fixes there is no need for ehci-hcd to deal with usb_get_urb()
nor usb_put_urb() anymore, so patch removes their usages in ehci-hcd.
Patch also makes ehci_to_hcd(ehci)->self.bandwidth_allocated adjust, if a
stream finishes.

USB: unusual_devs: Add support for GI 0431 SD-Card interface
Enable the SD-Card interface on the GI 0431 HSUPA stick from Option.
The unusual_devs.h entry is necessary because the device descriptor is
vendor-specific. That prevents usb-storage from binding to it as an
interface driver.

USB: usbfs: keep async URBs until the device file is closed
The usbfs driver manages a list of completed asynchronous URBs. But
it is too eager to free the entries on this list: destroy_async() gets
called whenever an interface is unbound or a device is removed, and it
deallocates the outstanding struct async entries for all URBs on that
interface or device. This is wrong; the user program should be able
to reap an URB any time after it has completed, regardless of whether
or not the interface is still bound or the device is still present.
This patch (as1222) moves the code for deallocating the completed list
entries from destroy_async() to usbdev_release(). The outstanding
entries won't be freed until the user program has closed the device
file, thereby eliminating any possibility that the remaining URBs
might still be reaped.
This fixes a bug in which a program can hang in the USBDEVFS_REAPURB
ioctl when the device is unplugged.

nfsd: nfsd should drop CAP_MKNOD for non-root
Since creating a device node is normally an operation requiring special
privilege, Igor Zhbanov points out that it is surprising (to say the
least) that a client can, for example, create a device node on a
filesystem exported with root_squash.
So, make sure CAP_MKNOD is among the capabilities dropped when an nfsd
thread handles a request from a non-root user.

Avoid 64-bit "switch()" statements on 32-bit architectures
Commit ee6f779b9e0851e2f7da292a9f58e0095edf615a ("filp->f_pos not
correctly updated in proc_task_readdir") changed the proc code to use
filp->f_pos directly, rather than through a temporary variable. In the
process, that caused the operations to be done on the full 64 bits, even
though the offset is never that big.
That's all fine and dandy per se, but for some unfathomable reason gcc
generates absolutely horrid code when using 64-bit values in switch()
statements. To the point of actually calling out to gcc helper
functions like __cmpdi2 rather than just doing the trivial comparisons
directly the way gcc does for normal compares. At which point we get
link failures, because we really don't want to support that kind of
crazy code.
Fix this by just casting the f_pos value to "unsigned long", which
is plenty big enough for /proc, and avoids the gcc code generation issue.
