Remove arch/arm/plat-omap/include/plat/sdrc.h by folding its contents
into arch/arm/mach-omap2/sdrc.h. The objective is to assist Tony in
cleaning out arch/arm/plat-omap/, as his upstreams request.

This patch converts vrfb library into a platform device, in an effort to
remove omap dependencies.
The platform device is registered in arch/arm/plat-omap/fb.c and
assigned resources depending on whether running on omap2 or omap3.
The vrfb driver will parse those resources and use them to access vrfb
configuration registers and the vrfb virtual rotation areas.

Add new enum, omapdss_version, that is used to tell which DSS hardware
version the SoC has. This enum is initialized during platform init, and
passed in the platform data to omapdss driver.
Note that the versions are not "continuous", that is, you cannot check
if the version is less or greater than something, but you need to check
for exact version match. In other words, this is invalid:
/* test if DSS is 3630 or earlier */
if (ver <= OMAPDSS_VER_OMAP3630)

This is needed for the ARM common zImage support.
We can use the existing slot features to pass omap1
specific options to the driver. For omap2 we don't
want to pass anything new as that will be eventually
moved to use device tree based init.
Note that this patch depends on earlier patch that
moves plat/mmc.h into include/linux/platform_data.

A platform function pointer for getting the frequency of a OneNAND device
was added so that a platform could specify a custom function for returning
the frequency and not just rely on the OneNAND version to determine the
frequency. However, this platform function pointer is not currently being
used and I am not sure if it ever has.
OneNAND devices are not so common these days and as far as I know not being
used with new devices. Therefore, it is most likely that this get_freq()
function pointer will not be used and so remove it.
Given that the get_freq() function pointer is not used, neither is the
clk_dep variable and so all references to it can also be removed.

Helper function for updating nand platform data has been

Usage of omap_nand_flash_init() has been replaced by modifed
one, omap_nand_flash_init was doing things similar to
board_nand_init except that NAND CS# were being acquired
based on bootloader setting. As CS# is hardwired for a given
board, acquiring gpmc CS# has been removed, and updated with
the value on board.
NAND CS# used in beagle board & omap3evm was found to be CS0.
Thomas Weber <thomas.weber.linux@googlemail.com> reported

to be using CS0 based on u-boot, while google grep says

The hostprogs need access to the CONFIG_* symbols found in
include/generated/autoconf.h. But commit abbf1590de22 ("UAPI: Partition
the header include path sets and add uapi/ header directories") replaced
$(LINUXINCLUDE) with $(USERINCLUDE) which doesn't contain the necessary
include paths.
This has the undesirable effect of breaking the EFI boot stub because
the #ifdef CONFIG_EFI_STUB code in arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c is
never compiled.
It should also be noted that because $(USERINCLUDE) isn't exported by
the top-level Makefile it's actually empty in arch/x86/boot/Makefile.

Pull ARM update from Russell King:
"This is the final round of stuff for ARM, left until the end of the
merge window to reduce the number of conflicts. This set contains the
ARM part of David Howells UAPI changes, and a fix to the ordering of
'select' statements in ARM Kconfig files (see the appropriate commit
for why this happened - thanks to Andrew Morton for pointing out the
problem.)
I've left this as long as I dare for this window to avoid conflicts,
and I regenerated the config patch yesterday, posting it to our
mailing list for review and testing. I have several acks which
include successful test reports for it.
However, today I notice we've got new conflicts with previously unseen
code... though that conflict should be trivial (it's my changes vs a
one liner.)"

As suggested by Andrew Morton:
This is a pet peeve of mine. Any time there's a long list of items
(header file inclusions, kconfig entries, array initalisers, etc) and
someone wants to add a new item, they *always* go and stick it at the
end of the list.
Guys, don't do this. Either put the new item into a randomly-chosen
position or, probably better, alphanumerically sort the list.
lets sort all our select statements alphanumerically. This commit was
created by the following perl:
while (<>) {
while (/\\\s*$/) {
$_ .= <>;
}
undef %selects if /^\s*config\s+/;
if (/^\s+select\s+(\w+).*/) {
if (defined($selects{$1})) {
if ($selects{$1} eq $_) {
print STDERR "Warning: removing duplicated $1 entry\n";
} else {
print STDERR "Error: $1 differently selected\n".
"\tOld: $selects{$1}\n".
"\tNew: $_\n";
exit 1;
}
}
$selects{$1} = $_;
next;
}
if (%selects and (/^\s*$/ or /^\s+help/ or /^\s+---help---/ or
/^endif/ or /^endchoice/)) {
foreach $k (sort (keys %selects)) {
print "$selects{$k}";
}
undef %selects;
}
print;
}
if (%selects) {
foreach $k (sort (keys %selects)) {
print "$selects{$k}";
}
}
It found two duplicates:
Warning: removing duplicated S5P_SETUP_MIPIPHY entry
Warning: removing duplicated HARDIRQS_SW_RESEND entry
and they are identical duplicates, hence the shrinkage in the diffstat
of two lines.
We have four testers reporting success of this change (Tony, Stephen,
Linus and Sekhar.)

getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.
For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.
This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

now one of them has started to warn about it, so make it correct.
