c48ea60359 [PATCH] PM: use kobject_name() to access kobject names
Noone should use kobj.name directly since it may contain garbage.
Objects with longer names have them stored in separately allocated
memory pointed to by kobj->k_name.

2363cc0264 [PATCH] remove protection of LANANA-reserved majors
Revert all this.  It can cause device-mapper to receive a different major from
earlier kernels and it turns out that the Amanda backup program (via GNU tar,
apparently) checks major numbers on files when performing incremental backups.

Which is a bit broken of Amanda (or tar), but this feature isn't important
enough to justify the churn.

f5ef2abcbe driver core: do not wait unnecessarily in driver_unregister()
Ingo reported that built-in drivers suffered bootup hangs with certain
driver unregistry sequences, due to sysfs breakage.

Do the minimal fix for v2.6.21: only wait if the driver is a module.

d9a9cdfb07 [PATCH] sysfs and driver core: add callback helper, used by SCSI and S390
This patch (as868) adds a helper routine for device drivers that need
to set up a callback to perform some action in a different process's
context.  This is intended for use by attribute methods that want to
unregister themselves or their parent device.  Attribute method calls
are mutually exclusive with unregistration, so such actions cannot be
taken directly.

Two attribute methods are converted to use the new helper routine: one
for SCSI device deletion and one for System/390 ccwgroup devices.

f7f3461d87 Driver core: add device symlink back to sysfs
This moves the device symlink back to sysfs even if
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled as too many userspace programs (well,
HAL), still rely on this link to be present.

I will rework the ability for sysfs to change layouts like this in the
future, but for now, this patch should fix people's network connections.

9ac7849e35 devres: device resource management
Implement device resource management, in short, devres.  A device
driver can allocate arbirary size of devres data which is associated
with a release function.  On driver detach, release function is
invoked on the devres data, then, devres data is freed.

devreses are typed by associated release functions.  Some devreses are
better represented by single instance of the type while others need
multiple instances sharing the same release function.  Both usages are
supported.

devreses can be grouped using devres group such that a device driver
can easily release acquired resources halfway through initialization
or selectively release resources (e.g. resources for port 1 out of 4
ports).

This patch adds devres core including documentation and the following
managed interfaces.

* alloc/free	: devm_kzalloc(), devm_kzfree()
* IO region	: devm_request_region(), devm_release_region()
* IRQ		: devm_request_irq(), devm_free_irq()
* DMA		: dmam_alloc_coherent(), dmam_free_coherent(),
		  dmam_declare_coherent_memory(), dmam_pool_create(),
		  dmam_pool_destroy()
* PCI		: pcim_enable_device(), pcim_pin_device(), pci_is_managed()
* iomap		: devm_ioport_map(), devm_ioport_unmap(), devm_ioremap(),
		  devm_ioremap_nocache(), devm_iounmap(), pcim_iomap_table(),
		  pcim_iomap(), pcim_iounmap()

f9f852df2f Driver core: add device_type to struct device
This allows us to add type specific attributes, uevent vars and
release funtions.

A subsystem can carry different types of devices like the "block"
subsys has disks and partitions. Both types create a different set
of attributes, but belong to the same subsystem.

This corresponds to the low level objects:
  kobject   -> device       (object/device data)
  kobj_type -> device_type  (type of object/device we are embedded in)
  kset      -> class/bus    (list of objects/devices of a subsystem)

Don't stop on the first ->probe error that is not -ENODEV/-ENXIO.

There might be a driver registered returning an unresonable return code, and
this stops probing completely even though it may make sense to try the next
possible driver. At worst, we may end up with an unbound device.

873481367e [PATCH] add numa node information to struct device
For node-aware skb allocations we need information about the node in struct
net_device or struct device.  Davem suggested to put it into struct device
which this patch does.

In particular:

 - struct device gets a new int numa_node member if CONFIG_NUMA is set
 - there are two new helpers, dev_to_node and set_dev_node to
   transparently deal with the non-numa case
 - for pci devices the node-info is set to the value we get from
   pcibus_to_node.

Note that for some architectures pcibus_to_node doesn't work yet at the time
we call it currently.  This is harmless and will just mean skb allocations
aren't node-local on this architectures until the implementation of
pcibus_to_node on these architectures have been updated (There are patches for
x86 and x86_64 floating around)

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.

acf02d23b9 driver core: Use klist_remove() in device_move()
As pointed out by Alan Stern, device_move needs to use klist_remove which waits
until removal is complete.

8a82472f86 driver core: Introduce device_move(): move a device to a new parent.
Provide a function device_move() to move a device to a new parent device. Add
auxilliary functions kobject_move() and sysfs_move_dir().
kobject_move() generates a new uevent of type KOBJ_MOVE, containing the
previous path (DEVPATH_OLD) in addition to the usual values. For this, a new
interface kobject_uevent_env() is created that allows to add further
environmental data to the uevent at the kobject layer.

06a4bcae1f cpu topology: consider sysfs_create_group return value
Take return value of sysfs_create_group() into account.  That function got
called in case of CPU_ONLINE notification.  Since callbacks are not allowed
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.

2895353346 Driver core: Call platform_notify_remove later
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, ...)
