Tobias Klauser 27157a7024 trivial: drivers/char/bsr.c: Storage class should be before const qualifier
The C99 specification states in section 6.11.5:

The placement of a storage-class specifier other than at the
beginning of the declaration specifiers in a declaration is an
obsolescent feature.

Sonny Rao a0e2f9f4a2 powerpc/BSR: Support multiple OF-node description of BSR
This adds support for multiple BSR nodes in the OF device tree.

Previously, the BSR driver only supported a single OF node describing
a BSR.  Apparently when an LPAR is set to use "all system resources"
the BSR appears as a single node, but when it is handed out in pieces,
each 8 byte piece gets its own node.  So, this keeps a list of BSR
devices instead of the array and includes all nodes.

Also, this makes the code be more inclusive of what BSR devices we
accept by only checking compatibility and not the device name property
(which might change in the future versions of BSR).

Greg Kroah-Hartman 03457cd455 device create: char: convert device_create_drvdata to device_create
Now that device_create() has been audited, rename things back to the
original call to be sane.

Sonny Rao fe9e8d5377 powerpc: Add driver for Barrier Synchronization Register
Adds a character driver for BSR support on IBM POWER systems including
Power5 and Power6.  The BSR is an optional processor facility not currently
implemented by any other processors.  It's primary purpose is fast large SMP
synchronization.  More details on the BSR are in comments to the code which
follows.  This patch adds BSR driver to pseries_defconfig.
