Cornelia Huck 0763446429 Driver core: Fix error handling in bus_add_driver().
- If the allocation of ->priv fails, the reference on the bus
  must be dropped.
- If adding the kobject fails, kobject_put must be called to
  clean things up.

Michael E Brown 7d640c4a5b Driver core: Revert "Fix Firmware class name collision"
This reverts commit 109f0e93b6.

The original patch breaks BIOS updates on all Dell machines. The path to
the firmware file for the dell_rbu driver changes, which breaks all of
the userspace tools which rely on it.

Note that this patch re-introduces a problem with i2c name collision
that was previously fixed by this patch.

Johannes Berg 90dda1cb6a PM: Make PM_TRACE more architecture independent
When trying to debug a suspend failure I started implementing
PM_TRACE for powerpc. I then noticed that I'm debugging a suspend
failure and so PM_TRACE isn't useful at all, but thought that
nonetheless this could be useful in the future.

Basically, to support PM_TRACE, you add a Kconfig option that
selects PM_TRACE and provides the infrastructure as per the
help text of PM_TRACE.

We save the current state in the object itself, so we can do proper
cleanup when the last reference is dropped.

If the initial reference is dropped, the object will be removed from
sysfs if needed, if an "add" event was sent, "remove" will be send, and
the allocated resources are released.

This allows us to clean up some driver core usage as well as allowing us
to do other such changes to the rest of the kernel.

Alan Stern ef2c51746d Driver core: fix race in __device_release_driver
This patch (as1013) was suggested by David Woodhouse; it fixes a race
in the driver core.  If a device is unregistered at the same time as
its driver is unloaded, the driver's code pages may be unmapped while
the remove method is still running.  The calls to get_driver() and
put_driver() were intended to prevent this, but they don't work if the
driver's module count has already dropped to 0.

Instead, the patch keeps the device on the driver's list until after
the remove method has returned.  This forces the necessary
synchronization to occur.

Rafael J. Wysocki 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.

Daniel Drake dec13c1544 create /sys/.../power when CONFIG_PM is set
The CONFIG_SUSPEND changes in 2.6.23 caused a regression under certain
configuration conditions (SUSPEND=n, USB_AUTOSUSPEND=y) where all USB
device attributes in sysfs (idVendor, idProduct, ...) silently disappeared,
causing udev breakage and more.

The cause of this is that the /sys/.../power subdirectory is now only
created when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is set, however, it should be created whenever
CONFIG_PM is set to handle the above situation.  The following patch fixes
the regression.

    changes from/to memoryless node for callback functions.
    Callbacks can't do anything without those information.
  - Add notification going-online status.
    It is necessary for creating per node structure before the node's
    pages are available.
  - Move GOING_OFFLINE status notification after page isolation.
    It is good place for return memory like cache for callback,
    because returned page is not used again.
  - Make CANCEL events for rollingback when error occurs.
  - Delete MEM_MAPPING_INVALID notification. It will be not used.
  - Fix compile error of (un)register_memory_notifier().

We have flags to indicate whether a section actually has a valid mem_map

to indicate a section is valid.  By definition a section is not valid if it
has no mem_map and there is a window during init where the present bit is set
but there is no mem_map, during which pfn_valid() will return true
incorrectly.

Use the existing SECTION_HAS_MEM_MAP flag to indicate the presence of a valid
mem_map.  Switch valid_section{,_nr} and pfn_valid() to this bit.  Add a new
present_section{,_nr} and pfn_present() interfaces for those users who care to
know that a section is going to be valid.

This macro is only used by the driver core and is held over from when we
had subsystems.  It is not needed anymore.

Kay Sievers 6a8d8abb6e Driver core: add CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH
The kernel creates a process for every event that is send, even when
there is no binary it could execute.  We are needlessly creating around
200-300 failing processes during early bootup, until we have the chance
to disable it from userspace.

This change allows us to disable /sbin/hotplug entirely, if you want to,
by setting UEVENT_HELPER_PATH="" in the kernel config.

Kay Sievers 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.

Dmitry Torokhov 3eb215de26 Driver core: fix SYSF_DEPRECATED breakage for nested classdevs
We should only reparent to a class former class devices that
form the base of class hierarchy. Nested devices should still
grow from their real parents.

Linus Torvalds 5309809129 Add explicit zeroing to "envp" array in device 'show' method
As Stephen Hemminger says, this is a "belt and suspenders" patch that
zeroes the envp array at allocation time, even though all the users
should NULL-terminate it anyway (and we've hopefully fixed everybody
that doesn't do that).

And we'll apparently clean the whole envp thing up for 2.6.24 anyway.

But let's just be robust, and do both this *and* make sure that all
users are doing the right thing.

Dmitry Torokhov 4f01a757e7 Driver core: fix deprectated sysfs structure for nested class devices
Nested class devices used to have 'device' symlink point to a real
(physical) device instead of a parent class device.  When converting
subsystems to struct device we need to keep doing what class devices did if
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is Y, otherwise parts of udev break.
