This patch (as1310) works around a race in dev_driver_string(). If
the device is unbound while the function is running, dev->driver might
become NULL after we test it and before we dereference it.

Add early_platform_init_buffer() support and update the
early platform driver code to allow passing parameters
to the driver on the kernel command line.
early_platform_init_buffer() simply allows early platform
drivers to provide a pointer and length to a memory area
where the remaining part of the kernel command line option
will be stored.
Needed to pass baud rate and other serial port options
to the reworked early serial console code on SuperH.

device_shutdown is defined to just shutdown the hardware and to not
clean up any kernel data structures. Therefore don't put the kobjects
for /sys/dev and /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char.
This ensures we don't remove /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char while
we still have symlinks from there to the actual devices.

Unfortunately, one cannot hold on to the struct firmware
that request_firmware_nowait() hands off, which is needed
in some cases. Allow this by requiring the callback to
free it (via release_firmware).
Additionally, give it a gfp_t parameter -- all the current
users call it from a GFP_KERNEL context so the GFP_ATOMIC
isn't necessary. This also marks an API break which is
useful in a sense, although that is obviously not the
primary purpose of this change.

deallocate
Currently the cpu-allocation/deallocation process comprises of two steps:
- Set the indicators and to update the device tree with DLPAR node
information.
- Online/offline the allocated/deallocated CPU.
This is achieved by writing to the sysfs tunables "probe" during allocation
and "release" during deallocation.
At the sametime, the userspace can independently online/offline the CPUs of
the system using the sysfs tunable "online".
It is quite possible that when a userspace tool offlines a CPU
for the purpose of deallocation and is in the process of updating the device
tree, some other userspace tool could bring the CPU back online by writing to
the "online" sysfs tunable thereby causing the deallocate process to fail.
The solution to this is to serialize writes to the "probe/release" sysfs
tunable with the writes to the "online" sysfs tunable.
This patch employs a mutex to provide this serialization, which is a no-op on
all architectures except PPC_PSERIES

Version 3 of this patch is updated with documentation added to
Documentation/ABI. There are no changes to any of the C code from v2
of the patch.
In order to support kernel DLPAR of CPU resources we need to provide an
interface to add (probe) and remove (release) the resource from the system.
This patch Creates new generic probe and release sysfs files to facilitate
cpu probe/release. The probe/release interface provides for allowing each
arch to supply their own routines for implementing the backend of adding
and removing cpus to/from the system.
This also creates the powerpc specific stubs to handle the arch callouts
from writes to the sysfs files.
The creation and use of these files is regulated by the
CONFIG_ARCH_CPU_PROBE_RELEASE option so that only architectures that need the
capability will have the files created.

The runtime PM core code assumes that dev->power.timer_expires is

incidentally in pm_schedule_suspend(). Prevent this from happening
by bumping dev->power.timer_expires up to 1 if it's 0 before calling
mod_timer().

This patch (as1307) adds a small optimization to
__pm_request_resume(). If the device is currently being suspended,
there's no need to queue a work routine to resume it. Setting the
deferred_resume flag will suffice. (There's also a minor improvement
to the function's code layout: An unnecessary "else" is removed.)
Also, the patch clarifies the usage of the deferred_resume flag. It
is meaningful only while a suspend is in progress, so it should be
cleared just before a suspend starts, not just after one ends.

This patch (as1305) fixes a bug in the irq-enable settings and removes
some related overhead in the runtime PM code.
In __pm_runtime_resume(), within the scope of the original
spin_lock_irq(), we know that irqs are disabled. There's no
reason to go through a pair of enable/disable cycles when
acquiring and releasing the parent's lock.
In __pm_runtime_set_status(), irqs are already disabled when
the parent's lock is acquired, and they must remain disabled
when it is released.

Platform drivers registered via platform_driver_probe() can be bound
to devices only once, upon registration, because discard their probe()
routines to save memory. Unbinding the driver through sysfs 'unbind'

the check was added for another driver to already claim the same device
on the same bus. But the returned error code was wrong: to modprobe, the
-EEXIST means that _this_ driver is already installed. It therefore
doesn't produce the needed error message when _another_ driver is trying
to register for the same device. Returning -EBUSY fixes the problem.

Recently we encountered OOM problems due to memory use of the GEM cache.
Generally a large amuont of Shmem/Tmpfs pages tend to create a memory
shortage problem.
We often use the following calculation to determine the amount of shmem
pages:
shmem = NR_ACTIVE_ANON + NR_INACTIVE_ANON - NR_ANON_PAGES
however the expression does not consider isolated and mlocked pages.
This patch adds explicit accounting for pages used by shmem and tmpfs.

This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions
for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero,
random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows
non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no
other userspace process applies the expected permissions.
This also fixes a wrong assignment in pktcdvd and a checkpatch.pl complain.

Devtmpfs lets the kernel create a tmpfs instance called devtmpfs
very early at kernel initialization, before any driver-core device
is registered. Every device with a major/minor will provide a
device node in devtmpfs.
Devtmpfs can be changed and altered by userspace at any time,
and in any way needed - just like today's udev-mounted tmpfs.
Unmodified udev versions will run just fine on top of it, and will
recognize an already existing kernel-created device node and use it.
The default node permissions are root:root 0600. Proper permissions
and user/group ownership, meaningful symlinks, all other policy still
needs to be applied by userspace.
If a node is created by devtmps, devtmpfs will remove the device node
when the device goes away. If the device node was created by
userspace, or the devtmpfs created node was replaced by userspace, it
will no longer be removed by devtmpfs.
If it is requested to auto-mount it, it makes init=/bin/sh work
without any further userspace support. /dev will be fully populated
and dynamic, and always reflect the current device state of the kernel.
With the commonly used dynamic device numbers, it solves the problem
where static devices nodes may point to the wrong devices.
It is intended to make the initial bootup logic simpler and more robust,
by de-coupling the creation of the inital environment, to reliably run
userspace processes, from a complex userspace bootstrap logic to provide
a working /dev.

When turning class devices into bus devices, we may need to
temporarily add links in sysfs so that user-space applications
are not confused. This is done by adding the following API:
* Functions to register and unregister compatibility classes.
These appear in sysfs at the same location as regular classes, but
instead of class devices, they contain links to bus devices.
* Functions to create and delete such links. Additionally, the caller
can optionally pass a target device to which a "device" link should
point (typically that would be the device's parent), to fully emulate
the original class device.
The i2c subsystem will be the first user of this API, as i2c adapters
are being converted from class devices to bus devices.

This patch (as1271) affects when new devices get linked into their
bus's list of devices. Currently this happens after probing, and it
doesn't happen at all if probing fails. Clearly this is wrong,
because at that point quite a few symbolic links have already been
created in sysfs. We are committed to adding the device, so it should
be linked into the bus's list regardless.
In addition, this needs to happen before the uevent announcing the new
device gets issued. Otherwise user programs might try to access the
device before it has been added to the bus.
To fix both these problems, the patch moves the call to
klist_add_tail() forward from bus_attach_device() to bus_add_device().
Since bus_attach_device() now does nothing but probe for drivers, it
has been renamed to bus_probe_device(). And lastly, the kerneldoc is
updated.

transition_started should be set once the preparation of devices for
a PM has started, reset before starting to resume devices. When
resuming devices, kernel calls dpm_resume_noirq then
dpm_resume_end(dpm_resume). Thus we should reset transition_started
at dpm_resume_noirq.

Commit 783ea7d4eeefe895f2731fe73ac951e94418927b
(Driver Core: Rework platform suspend/resume, print warning)
added a warning message printed for platform drivers that use the
legacy PM callbacks rather than struct dev_pm_ops. Unfortunately,
this resulted in some confusion and made some people try to convert
drivers by replacing the old callbacks with struct dev_pm_ops in
automatic way, which generally is not a good idea.
Remove the platform device runtime dev_pm_ops warning for now,
because it's annoying to users and it's not really necessary right
now.
