c906a48adc driver core: add init_name to struct device
This gives us a way to handle both the bus_id and init_name values being
used for a while during the transition period.

bf9ca69fc8 dev_printk(): constify the `dev' argument
Add const markings to dev_name and dev_driver_string to make it clear that
dev_printk doesn't modify dev.  This is a prerequisite to adding more
const markings to other functions make it clearer, which functions can
modify dev and which can't.

e105b8bfc7 sysfs: add /sys/dev/{char,block} to lookup sysfs path by major:minor
Why?:
There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs
attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the
device or the path.  For example what is the sysfs path for
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK?  With this change a call to
stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that
/sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc.

What are the alternatives?:
1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce
   the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this
   seems counter productive.

2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a
   udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited
   environment like an initramfs.

3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

1eede070a5 Introduce new top level suspend and hibernation callbacks
Introduce 'struct pm_ops' and 'struct pm_ext_ops' ('ext' meaning
'extended') representing suspend and hibernation operations for bus
types, device classes, device types and device drivers.

Modify the PM core to use 'struct pm_ops' and 'struct pm_ext_ops'
objects, if defined, instead of the ->suspend(), ->resume(),
->suspend_late(), and ->resume_early() callbacks (the old callbacks
will be considered as legacy and gradually phased out).

The main purpose of doing this is to separate suspend (aka S2RAM and
standby) callbacks from hibernation callbacks in such a way that the
new callbacks won't take arguments and the semantics of each of them
will be clearly specified.  This has been requested for multiple
times by many people, including Linus himself, and the reason is that
within the current scheme if ->resume() is called, for example, it's
difficult to say why it's been called (ie. is it a resume from RAM or
from hibernation or a suspend/hibernation failure etc.?).

The second purpose is to make the suspend/hibernation callbacks more
flexible so that device drivers can handle more than they can within
the current scheme.  For example, some drivers may need to prevent
new children of the device from being registered before their
->suspend() callbacks are executed or they may want to carry out some
operations requiring the availability of some other devices, not
directly bound via the parent-child relationship, in order to prepare
for the execution of ->suspend(), etc.

Ultimately, we'd like to stop using the freezing of tasks for suspend
and therefore the drivers' suspend/hibernation code will have to take
care of the handling of the user space during suspend/hibernation.
That, in turn, would be difficult within the current scheme, without
the new ->prepare() and ->complete() callbacks.

8882b39421 Driver core: add device_create_vargs and device_create_drvdata
We want to have the drvdata field set properly when creating the device
as sysfs callbacks can assume it is present and it can race the later

b844eba292 PM: Remove destroy_suspended_device()
After 2.6.24 there was a plan to make the PM core acquire all device
semaphores during a suspend/hibernation to protect itself from
concurrent operations involving device objects.  That proved to be
too heavy-handed and we found a better way to achieve the goal, but
before it happened, we had introduced the functions
device_pm_schedule_removal() and destroy_suspended_device() to allow
drivers to "safely" destroy a suspended device and we had adapted some
drivers to use them.  Now that these functions are no longer necessary,
it seems reasonable to remove them and modify their users to use the
normal device unregistration instead.

1429db83e2 driver core: Convert debug functions declared inline __attribute__((format (printf,x,y) to statement expression macros
When DEBUG is not defined, pr_debug and dev_dbg and some
other local debugging functions are specified as:

"inline __attribute__((format (printf, x, y)))"

This is done to validate printk arguments when not debugging.

Converting these functions to macros or statement expressions
"do { if (0) printk(fmt, ##arg); } while (0)"
or
"({ if (0) printk(fmt, ##arg); 0; })
makes at least gcc 4.2.2 produce smaller objects.

This has the additional benefit of allowing the optimizer to
avoid calling functions like print_mac that might have been
arguments to the printk.

defconfig x86 current:

$ size vmlinux
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
4716770  474560  618496 5809826  58a6a2 vmlinux

all converted: (More patches follow)

$ size vmlinux
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
4716642  474560  618496 5809698  58a622 vmlinux

Even kernel/sched.o, which doesn't even use these
functions, becomes smaller.

It appears that merely having an indirect include
of <linux/device.h> can cause bigger objects.

$ size sched.inline.o sched.if0.o
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  31385    2854     328   34567    8707 sched.inline.o
  31366    2854     328   34548    86f4 sched.if0.o

The current preprocessed only kernel/sched.i file contains:

# 612 "include/linux/device.h"
static inline __attribute__((always_inline)) int __attribute__ ((format (printf, 2, 3)))
dev_dbg(struct device *dev, const char *fmt, ...)
{
 return 0;
}
# 628 "include/linux/device.h"
static inline __attribute__((always_inline)) int __attribute__ ((format (printf, 2, 3)))
dev_vdbg(struct device *dev, const char *fmt, ...)
{
 return 0;
}

Removing these unused inlines from sched.i shrinks sched.o

6b7b651055 iommu sg merging: add device_dma_parameters structure
IOMMUs merges scatter/gather segments without considering a low level
driver's restrictions. The problem is that IOMMUs can't access to the
limitations because they are in request_queue.

This patchset introduces a new structure, device_dma_parameters,
including dma information. A pointer to device_dma_parameters is added
to struct device. The bus specific structures (like pci_dev) includes
device_dma_parameters. Low level drivers can use dma_set_max_seg_size
to tell IOMMUs about the restrictions.

We can move more dma stuff in struct device (like dma_mask) to struct
device_dma_parameters later (needs some cleanups before that).

This includes patches for all the IOMMUs that could merge sg (x86_64,
ppc, IA64, alpha, sparc64, and parisc) though only the ppc patch was
tested. The patches for other IOMMUs are only compile tested.

This patch:

Add a new structure, device_dma_parameters, including dma information.  A
pointer to device_dma_parameters is added to struct device.

- there are only max_segment_size and segment_boundary_mask there but we'll
  move more dma stuff in struct device (like dma_mask) to struct
  device_dma_parameters later.  segment_boundary_mask is not supported yet.

- new accessors for the dma parameters are added.  So we can easily change
  where to place struct device_dma_parameters in the future.

- dma_get_max_seg_size returns 64K if dma_parms in struct device isn't set
  up properly.  64K is the default max_segment_size in the block layer.

3d8995963d kset: convert struct bus_device->devices to use kset_create
Dynamically create the kset instead of declaring it statically.

Having 3 static kobjects in one structure is not only foolish, but ripe
for nasty race conditions if handled improperly.  We also rename the
field to catch any potential users of it (not that there should be
outside of the driver core...)

775b64d2b6 PM: Acquire device locks on suspend
This patch reorganizes the way suspend and resume notifications are
sent to drivers.  The major changes are that now the PM core acquires
every device semaphore before calling the methods, and calls to
device_add() during suspends will fail, while calls to device_del()
during suspends will block.

It also provides a way to safely remove a suspended device with the
help of the PM core, by using the device_pm_schedule_removal() callback
introduced specifically for this purpose, and updates two drivers (msr
and cpuid) that need to use it.

d919fd433b Revert "Driver core: remove class_device_*_bin_file"
This reverts commit fcd239d3d5.

I messed up, ia64 still uses these files in the current tree, and now
can not build the pci code, which all ia64 boxes seem to require :)

This fixes that mistake.

fcd239d3d5 Driver core: remove class_device_*_bin_file
These functions are not used by anyone, so remove them from the tree.

The class_device code will be removed soon anyway, so no future users
will ever be possible.

7eff2e7a8b Driver core: change add_uevent_var to use a struct
This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a
long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the
proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.

Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the
error handling.

58b3b71dfa Fix ThinkPad T42 poweroff failure introduced by by "PM: Introduce pm_power_off_prepare"
Commit bd804eba1c ("PM: Introduce
pm_power_off_prepare") caused problems in the poweroff path, as reported by
YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明.

Generally, sysdev_shutdown() should be called after the ACPI preparation for
powering the system off.  To make it happen, we can separate sysdev_shutdown()
from device_shutdown() and call it directly wherever necessary.

aebdc3b450 dev_vdbg(), available with -DVERBOSE_DEBUG
This defines a dev_vdbg() call, which is enabled with -DVERBOSE_DEBUG.
When enabled, dev_vdbg() acts just like dev_dbg().  When disabled, it is a
NOP ...  just like dev_dbg() without -DDEBUG.  The specific code was moved
out of a USB patch, but lots of drivers have similar support.

That is, code can now be written to use an additional level of debug
output, selected at compile time.  Many driver authors have found this
idiom to be very useful.  A typical usage model is for "normal" debug
messages to focus on fault paths and not be very "chatty", so that those
messages can be left on during normal operation without much of a
performance or syslog load.  On the other hand "verbose" messages would be
noisy enough that they wouldn't normally be enabled; they might even affect
timings enough to change system or driver behavior.

ad6a1e1c66 driver-core: make devt_attr and uevent_attr static
devt_attr and uevent_attr are either allocated dynamically with or
embedded in device and class_device as they needed their owner field
set to the module implementing the driver.  Now that sysfs implements
immediate disconnect and owner field removed from struct attribute,
there is no reason to do this.  Remove these attributes from
[class_]device and use static attribute structures instead.

49a4ec188f fix hotplug for legacy platform drivers
We've had various reports of some legacy "probe the hardware" style
platform drivers having nasty problems with hotplug support.

The core issue is that those legacy drivers don't fully conform to the
driver model.  They assume a role that should be the responsibility of
infrastructure code: creating device nodes.

The "modprobe" step in hotplugging relies on drivers to have split those
roles into different modules.  The lack of this split causes the problems.
When a driver creates nodes for devices that don't exist (sending a hotplug
event), then exits (aborting one modprobe) before the "modprobe $MODALIAS"
step completes (by failing, since it's in the middle of a modprobe), the
result can be an endless loop of modprobe invocations ...  badness.

This fix uses the newish per-device flag controlling issuance of "add"
events.  (A previous version of this patch used a per-device "driver can
hotplug" flag, which only scrubbed $MODALIAS from the environment rather
than suppressing the entire hotplug event.) It also shrinks that flag to
one bit, saving a word in "struct device".

So the net of this patch is removing some nasty failures with legacy
drivers, while retaining hotplug capability for the majority of platform
drivers.
