Dominik Brodowski 00ce99ff50 pcmcia: simplify locking
replace pcmcia_socket->lock and pcmcia_dev_list_lock by using the
per-socket "ops_mutex", as we do neither need different locks
nor a spinlock here.

Dominik Brodowski 88b060d6c0 pcmcia: improve check for same card in slot after resume
During a suspend/resume cycle, an user may change the card in the
PCMCIA/CardBus slot. The pcmcia_core can at least look at the
socket state to check whether it is the same.

For PCMCIA devices, move the detection and handling of such a
change to ds.c.

For CardBus devices, the PCI hotplug interface doesn't offer a "rescan"
facility which also _removes_ devices no longer to be found behind a
bridge. Therefore, remove and re-add all devices unconditionally.

Dominik Brodowski 84897fc052 pcmcia: pccard_read_tuple and TUPLE_RETURN_COMMON cleanup
pccard_read_tuple(), which is only used by the PCMCIA core, should
handle TUPLE_RETURN_COMMON more sensibly: If a specific function (which
may be 0) is requested, set tuple.Attributes = 0 as was done in all
PCMCIA drivers. If, however, BIND_FN_ALL is requested, return the
"common" tuple. As to the callers of pccard_read_tuple():

- All calls to pcmcia_validate_cis() had set the "function" parameter to
  BIND_FN_ALL. Therefore, remove the "function" parameter and make the
  parameter to pccard_read_tuple explicit.

- Calls to CISTPL_VERS_1 and CISTPL_MANFID now set BIND_FN_ALL. This was
  already the case for calls to CISTPL_LONGLINK_MFC.

Greg Kroah-Hartman f3e7a7b64a pcmcia: remove driver_data direct access of struct device
In the near future, the driver core is going to not allow direct access
to the driver_data pointer in struct device.  Instead, the functions
dev_get_drvdata() and dev_set_drvdata() should be used.  These functions
have been around since the beginning, so are backwards compatible with
all older kernel versions.

Alan Cox cec5eb7be3 pcmcia: Fix broken abuse of dev->driver_data
PCMCIA abuses dev->private_data in the probe methods. Unfortunately it
continues to abuse it after calling drv->probe() which leads to crashes and
other nasties (such as bogus probes of multifunction devices) giving errors like

pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.1
kernel: 0.1: GetNextTuple: No more items

Extract the passed data before calling the driver probe function that way
we don't blow up when the driver reuses dev->private_data as its right.

As its close to the final release just move the hack so it works out,
hopefully someone will be sufficiently embarrassed to produce a nice rework
for 2.6.28.
