Alan Stern 645daaab0b usbcore: add autosuspend/autoresume infrastructure
This patch (as739) adds the basic infrastructure for USB autosuspend
and autoresume.  The main features are:

	PM usage counters added to struct usb_device and struct
	usb_interface, indicating whether it's okay to autosuspend
	them or they are currently in use.

	Flag added to usb_device indicating whether the current
	suspend/resume operation originated from outside or as an
	autosuspend/autoresume.

	Flag added to usb_driver indicating whether the driver
	supports autosuspend.  If not, no device bound to the driver
	will be autosuspended.

	Mutex added to usb_device for protecting PM operations.
	Unlike the device semaphore, the locking rule for the pm_mutex
	is that you must acquire the locks going _up_ the device tree.

	New routines handling autosuspend/autoresume requests for
	interfaces and devices.

	Suspend and resume requests are propagated up the device tree
	(but not outside the USB subsystem).

	work_struct added to usb_device, for carrying out delayed
	autosuspend requests.

	Autoresume added (and autosuspend prevented) during probe and
	disconnect.

This patch (as778) adds a field to struct usb_device to store the
device's level in the USB tree.  In itself this number isn't really
important.  But the overhead is very low, and in a later patch it will
be used for preventing bogus warnings from the lockdep checker.

Alan Stern 1720058343 usbcore: trim down usb_bus structure
As part of the ongoing program to flatten out the HCD bus-glue layer,
this patch (as771b) eliminates the hcpriv, release, and kref fields
from struct usb_bus.  hcpriv and release were not being used for
anything worthwhile, and kref has been moved into the enclosing
usb_hcd structure.

Along with those changes, the patch gets rid of usb_bus_get and
usb_bus_put, replacing them with usb_get_hcd and usb_put_hcd.

The one interesting aspect is that the dev_set_drvdata call was
removed from usb_put_hcd, where it clearly doesn't belong.  This means
the driver private data won't get reset to NULL.  It shouldn't cause
any problems, since the private data is undefined when no driver is
bound.

Alan Stern a6d2bb9ff9 USB: remove struct usb_operations
All of the currently-supported USB host controller drivers use the HCD
bus-glue framework.  As part of the program for flattening out the glue
layer, this patch (as769) removes the usb_operations structure.  All
function calls now go directly to the HCD routines (slightly renamed
to remain within the "usb_" namespace).

The patch also removes usb_alloc_bus(), because it's not useful in the
HCD framework and it wasn't referenced anywhere.

Ben Williamson f2ebf92c9e USB: gmidi: New USB MIDI Gadget class driver.
This driver is glue between the USB gadget interface
and the ALSA MIDI interface. It allows us to appear
as a MIDI Streaming device to a host system on the
other end of a USB cable.

This includes linux/usb/audio.h and linux/usb/midi.h
containing definitions from the relevant USB specifications
for USB audio and USB MIDI devices.

The following changes have been made since the first RFC
posting:

* Bug fixes to endpoint handling.
* Workaround for USB_REQ_SET_CONFIGURATION handling,
  not understood yet.
* Added SND and SND_RAWMIDI dependencies in Kconfig.
* Moved usb_audio.h and usb_midi.h to usb/*.h
* Added module parameters for ALSA card index and id.
* Added module parameters for USB descriptor IDs and strings.
* Removed some unneeded stuff inherited from zero.c, more to go.
* Provide DECLARE_* macros for the variable-length structs.
* Use kmalloc instead of usb_ep_alloc_buffer.
* Limit source to 80 columns.
* Return actual error code instead of -ENOMEM in a few places.

Alan Stern 4d064c0802 usbcore: track whether interfaces are suspended
Currently we rely on intf->dev.power.power_state.event for tracking
whether intf is suspended.  This is not a reliable technique because
that value is owned by the PM core, not by usbcore.  This patch (as718b)
adds a new flag so that we can accurately tell which interfaces are
suspended and which aren't.

At first one might think these flags aren't needed, since interfaces
will be suspended along with their devices.  It turns out there are a
couple of intermediate situations where that's not quite true, such as
while processing a remote-wakeup request.

Alan Stern 8bb54ab573 usbcore: add usb_device_driver definition
This patch (as732) adds a usb_device_driver structure, for representing
drivers that manage an entire USB device as opposed to just an
interface.  Support routines like usb_register_device_driver,
usb_deregister_device_driver, usb_probe_device, and usb_unbind_device
are also added.

Unlike an earlier version of this patch, the new code is type-safe.  To
accomplish this, the existing struct driver embedded in struct
usb_driver had to be wrapped in an intermediate wrapper.  This enables
the core to tell at runtime whether a particular struct driver belongs
to a device driver or to an interface driver.

Eric W. Biederman c18258c6f0 [PATCH] pid: Implement transfer_pid and use it to simplify de_thread
In de_thread we move pids from one process to another, a rather ugly case.
The function transfer_pid makes it clear what we are doing, and makes the
action atomic.  This is useful we ever want to atomically traverse the
process group and session lists, in a rcu safe manner.

Even if the atomic properties this change should be a win as transfer_pid
should be less code to execute than executing both attach_pid and
detach_pid, and this should make de_thread slightly smaller as only a
single function call needs to be emitted.  The only downside is that the
code might be slower to execute as the odds are against transfer_pid being
in cache.

Michael Tokarev 07563c711f [PATCH] EISA bus MODALIAS attributes support
Add modalias attribute support for the almost forgotten now EISA bus and
(at least some) EISA-aware modules.

The modalias entry looks like (for an 3c509 NIC):

 eisa:sTCM5093

and the in-module alias like:

 eisa:sTCM5093*

The patch moves struct eisa_device_id declaration from include/linux/eisa.h
to include/linux/mod_devicetable.h (so that the former now #includes the
latter), adds proper MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(eisa, ...) statements for all
drivers with EISA IDs I found (some drivers already have that DEVICE_TABLE
declared), and adds recognision of __mod_eisa_device_table to
scripts/mod/file2alias.c so that proper modules.alias will be generated.

There's no support for /lib/modules/$kver/modules.eisamap, as it's not used
by any existing tools, and because with in-kernel modalias mechanism those
maps are obsolete anyway.

The rationale for this patch is:

 a) to make EISA bus to act as other busses with modalias
    support, to unify driver loading

 b) to foget about EISA finally - with this patch, kernel
    (who still supports EISA) will be the only one who knows
    how to choose the necessary drivers for this bus ;)

Theodore Ts'o 8e18e2941c [PATCH] inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_private
The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86.  (It would be more on an x86_64 system).  This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).

This patch:

The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer.  Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer.  This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.

Vivek Goyal 7e96287ddc [PATCH] kdump: introduce "reset_devices" command line option
Resetting the devices during driver initialization can be a costly
operation in terms of time (especially scsi devices).  This option can be
used by drivers to know that user forcibly wants the devices to be reset
during initialization.

This option can be useful while kernel is booting in unreliable
environment.  For ex.  during kdump boot where devices are in unknown
random state and BIOS execution has been skipped.

David Howells f269fdd182 [PATCH] NOMMU: move the fallback arch_vma_name() to a sensible place
Move the fallback arch_vma_name() to a sensible place (kernel/signal.c).

Currently it's in fs/proc/task_mmu.c, a file that is dependent on both
CONFIG_PROC_FS and CONFIG_MMU being enabled, but it's used from
kernel/signal.c from where it is called unconditionally.

Set the backing device info capabilities for /dev/mem and /dev/kmem to
permit direct sharing under no-MMU conditions and full mapping capabilities
under MMU conditions.  Make the BDI used by these available to all directly
mappable character devices.

Also comment the capabilities for /dev/zero.

Jes Sorensen f4b81804a2 [PATCH] do_no_pfn()
Implement do_no_pfn() for handling mapping of memory without a struct page
backing it.  This avoids creating fake page table entries for regions which
are not backed by real memory.

This feature is used by the MSPEC driver and other users, where it is
highly undesirable to have a struct page sitting behind the page (for
instance if the page is accessed in cached mode via the struct page in
parallel to the the driver accessing it uncached, which can result in data
corruption on some architectures, such as ia64).

This version uses specific NOPFN_{SIGBUS,OOM} return values, rather than
expect all negative pfn values would be an error.  It also bugs on cow
mappings as this would not work with the VM.
