Fix a bunch of
warning: ‘inline’ is not at beginning of declaration
messages when building a 'make allyesconfig' kernel with -Wextra.
These warnings are trivial to kill, yet rather annoying when building with
-Wextra.
The more we can cut down on pointless crap like this the better (IMHO).
A previous patch to do this for a 'allnoconfig' build has already been
merged. This just takes the cleanup a little further.

When hypervisor decides to decrease target balloon size while the balloon
driver tries to lock pages hypervisor may respond with
VMW_BALLOON_PPN_NOTNEEDED. Use this data and immediately stop reserving
pages and wait for the next update cycle to fetch new target instead of
continuing trying to lock pages until size of refused list grows above
VMW_BALLOON_MAX_REFUSED (16) pages.
As a result the driver stops bothering the hypervisor with its attempts to
lock more pages that are not needed anymore. Most likely next order from
hypervisor will be to reduce ballon size anyway.
It is a small optimization.

This is a 1-wire/w1 DS2423 slave driver for reading the values from all 4
counters available DS2423 devices by using standard w1_slave file. In
ds2423 the counters are tied to ram pages 12-15 in and each of those
ram-pages. Each of these counter values (and asoociated ram page values)
are represented as a own line in w1_slave file. Driver has been tested on
mips and x86.
usage example:

Add parallel port PPS client. It uses a standard method for capturing
timestamps for assert edge transitions: getting a timestamp soon after an
interrupt has happened.
This is not a very precise source of time information due to interrupt
handling delays. However, timestamps for clear edge transitions are much
more precise because the interrupt handler continuously polls hardware
port until the transition is done.
Hardware port operations require only about 1us so the maximum error
should not exceed this value. This was my primary goal when developing
this client.
Clear edge capture could be disabled using clear_wait parameter.

This commit adds hardpps() implementation based upon the original one from
the NTPv4 reference kernel code from David Mills. However, it is highly
optimized towards very fast syncronization and maximum stickness to PPS
signal. The typical error is less then a microsecond.
To make it sync faster I had to throw away exponential phase filter so
that the full phase offset is corrected immediately. Then I also had to
throw away median phase filter because it gives a bigger error itself if
used without exponential filter.
Maybe we will find an appropriate filtering scheme in the future but it's
not necessary if the signal quality is ok.

Remove the code that gatheres timestamp in pps_tty_dcd_change() in case
passed ts parameter is NULL because it never happens in the current code.
Fix comments as well.

This way less overhead is involved when running production kernel. If you
want to debug a pps client module please define DEBUG to enable the
checks.

Now pps_idr_lock is never used in interrupt context so we can replace
spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq with plain spin_lock/spin_unlock. But
there is also a potential race condition when someone can steal an id
which was allocated by idr_pre_get before it is used. So convert spin
lock to mutex and protect the whole id generation process.

Since now idr is only used to manage char device id's and not used in
kernel API anymore it should be moved to pps.c. This also makes it
possible to release id only at actual device freeing so nobody can
register a pps device with the same id while our device is not freed yet.

Since we now have direct pointers to struct pps_device everywhere it's
easy to use dev_* functions to print messages instead of plain printks.
Where dev_* cannot be used printks are converted to pr_*.

Using device index as a pointer needs some unnecessary work to be done
every time the pointer is needed (in irq handler for example). Using a
direct pointer is much more easy (and safe as well).

There was a race in PPS_FETCH ioctl handler when several processes want to
obtain PPS data simultaneously using sleeping PPS_FETCH. They all sleep
most of the time in the system call.
With the old approach when the first process waiting on the pps queue is
waken up it makes new system call right away and zeroes pps->go. So other
processes continue to sleep. This is a clear race condition because of
the global 'go' variable.
With the new approach pps->last_ev holds some value increasing at each PPS
event. PPS_FETCH ioctl handler saves current value to the local variable
at the very beginning so it can safely check that there is a new event by
just comparing both variables.

Here are some very trivial fixes combined:
- add macro definitions to protect header file from including several times
- remove declaration for an unexistent array
- fix typos
