446ecbd925 rtc: simplified rtc sysfs attribute handling
This simplifies the RTC sysfs support by removing the class_interface that
hooks it into the rtc core.  If it's configured, then sysfs support is now
part of the RTC core, and is never a separate module.

It's another step towards being able to remove "struct class_device".

ab6a2d70d1 rtc: rtc interfaces don't use class_device
This patch removes class_device from the programming interface that the RTC
framework exposes to the rest of the kernel.  Now an rtc_device is passed,
which is more type-safe and streamlines all the relevant code.

5726fb2012 rtc: remove /sys/class/rtc-dev/*
This simplifies the /dev support by removing a superfluous class_device (the
/sys/class/rtc-dev stuff) and the class_interface that hooks it into the rtc
core.  Accordingly, if it's configured then /dev support is now part of the
RTC core, and is never a separate module.

It's another step towards being able to remove "struct class_device".

1a1c9bb433 inode numbering: change libfs sb creation routines to avoid collisions with their root inodes
This patch makes it so that simple_fill_super and get_sb_pseudo assign their
root inodes to be number 1.  It also fixes up a couple of callers of
simple_fill_super that were passing in files arrays that had an index at
number 1, and adds a warning for any caller that sends in such an array.

It would have been nice to have made it so that it wasn't possible to make
such a collision, but some callers need to be able to control what inode
number their entries get, so I think this is the best that can be done.

63bd23591e au1550 SPI controller driver
Here is a driver for the Alchemy au1550 PSC (Programmable Serial
Controller) in SPI master mode.

It supports dma transfers using the Alchemy descriptor based dma controller
for 4-8 bits per word SPI transfers.  For 9-24 bits per word transfers, pio
irq based mode is used to avoid setup of dma channels from scratch on each
number of bits per word change.

Tested with au1550; this may also work on other MIPS Alchemy cpus, like
au1200/au1210/au1250.  Used extensively with SD card connected via SPI;
this handles 8.1MHz SPI clock transfers using dma without any problem (the
highest SPI clock freq possible with au1550 running on 324MHz).

The driver supports sharing of SPI bus by multiple devices.  All features
of Alchemy SPI mode are supported (all SPI modes, msb/lsb first, bits per
word in 4-24 range).

As the SPI clock of the controller depends on main input clock that shall
be configured externally, platform data structure for au1550 SPI controller
driver contains mainclk_hz attribute to define the input clock rate.  From
this value, dividers of the controller for SPI clock are set up for
required frequency.

8e39c933b1 tpm: fix sleep-in-spinlock
flush_scheduled_work() can sleep, and we're calling it under spinlock.

AFAICS, moving flush_scheduled_work before spin_lock() should not cause any
problems.

Reason being - The only thing that can race against tpm_release is tpm_open
(tpm_release is called when last reference to the file is closed and only
thing that can happen after that is tpm_open??) and tpm_open acquires
driver_lock and more over it bails out with EBUSY if chip->num_opens is
greater than 0.

I also moved chip->num_pending-- to after deleting timer and setting data
pending as it looks more correct for the paranoid although it probably doesn't
matter as it is guarded by driver_lock.  None the less this change should not
cause problems.

While I was at it I noticed a missing NULL check in tpm_register_hardware
which is fixed with this patch as well.

2f1a2ccb9c console UTF-8 fixes
The UTF-8 part of the vt driver suffers from the following issues which are
addressed in my patch:

1) If there's no glyph found for a particular valid UTF-8 character, we try
   to display U+FFFD. However if this one is not found either, here's what
   the current kernel does:

   - First, if the Unicode value is less than the number of glyphs, use the
     glyph directly from that position of the glyph table. While it may be a
     good idea in the 8-bit world, it has absolutely no sense with Unicode
     in mind. For example, if a Latin-2 font is loaded and an application
     prints U+00FB ("u with circumflex", not present in Latin-2) then as a
     fallback solution the glyph from the 0xFB position of the Latin-2
     fontset (which is an "u with double accent" - a different character) is
     displayed.

   - Second, if this fallback fails too, a simple ASCII question mark is
     printed, which is visually undistinguishable from a real question mark.

   I changed the code to skip the first step (except if in non-UTF-8 mode),
   and changed the second step to print the question mark with inverse color
   attributes, so it is visually clear that it's not a real question mark,
   and resembles more to the common glyph of U+FFFD.

2) The UTF-8 decoder is buggy in many ways:

   - Lone continuation bytes (section 3.1 of Markus Kuhn's UTF-8 stress
     test) are not caught, they are displayed as some "random" (taken
     directly form the font table, see above) glyphs instead the replacement
     character.

   - Incomplete sequences (sections 3.2 and 3.3 of the stress test) emit no
     replacement character, but rather cause the subsequent valid character
     to be displayed more times(!).

   - The decoder is not safe: overlong sequences are not caught currently,
     they are displayed as if these were valid representations. This may
     even have security impacts.

   - The decoder does not handle D800..DFFF and FFFE..FFFF specially, it
     just emits these code points and lets it be looked up in the glyph
     table. Since these are invalid code points, I replace them by U+FFFD
     and hence give no chance for them to be looked up in the glyph table.
     (Assuming no font ships glyphs for these code points, this change is
     not visible to the users since the glyph shown will be the same.)

   With my fixes to the decoder it now behaves exactly as Markus Kuhn's
   stress test recommends.

3) It has no concept of double-width (CJK) characters. It's way beyond the
   scope of my patch to try to display them, but at least I think it's
   important for the cursor to jump two positions when printing such
   characters, since this is what applications (such as text editors)
   expect. Currently the cursor only jumps one position, and hence
   applications suffer from displaying and refreshing problems, and editing
   some English letters that are preceded by some CJK characters in the same
   line is a nightmare. With my patch an additional space is inserted after
   the CJK character has been printed (which usually means a replacement
   symbol of course). (If U+FFFD isn't availble and hence an inverse
   question mark is displayed in the first cell, I keep the inverted state
   for the space in the 2nd column so it's quite easy to see that they are
   tied together.)

4) There is a small built-in table of zero-width spaces that are not to be
   printed but silently skipped. U+200A is included there, but it's not a
   zero-width character, so I remove it from there.

The serial_txx9 driver have abused device numbers (major 4, minor 128) if
CONFIG_SERIAL_TXX9_STDSERIAL was not set.  This patch makes the driver use
proper device numbers assigned for it (major 204, minor 196-203).  I
suppose a typical user of this driver set CONFIG_SERIAL_TXX9_STDSERIAL to Y
(i.e.  use "ttyS0"), so this patch would not cause big compatibility issue.

49a4ec188f fix hotplug for legacy platform drivers
We've had various reports of some legacy "probe the hardware" style
platform drivers having nasty problems with hotplug support.

The core issue is that those legacy drivers don't fully conform to the
driver model.  They assume a role that should be the responsibility of
infrastructure code: creating device nodes.

The "modprobe" step in hotplugging relies on drivers to have split those
roles into different modules.  The lack of this split causes the problems.
When a driver creates nodes for devices that don't exist (sending a hotplug
event), then exits (aborting one modprobe) before the "modprobe $MODALIAS"
step completes (by failing, since it's in the middle of a modprobe), the
result can be an endless loop of modprobe invocations ...  badness.

This fix uses the newish per-device flag controlling issuance of "add"
events.  (A previous version of this patch used a per-device "driver can
hotplug" flag, which only scrubbed $MODALIAS from the environment rather
than suppressing the entire hotplug event.) It also shrinks that flag to
one bit, saving a word in "struct device".

So the net of this patch is removing some nasty failures with legacy
drivers, while retaining hotplug capability for the majority of platform
drivers.

198b766013 cciss: set rq->errors more correctly in driver
Set rq->errors more correctly in cciss driver.  Previously we had set it
synonymously with the meaning of the last parameter of end_that_last_request
and complete_buffers (the "uptodate" parameter) and had gotten away with it
for all this time because nobody ever looked at rq->errors.
SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND looks at rq->errors, so now it matters that it be
right.

03bbfee58d cciss: add SG_IO ioctl to cciss
For all of you that think cciss should be a scsi driver here is the patch that
you have been waiting for all these years. This patch actually adds the SG_IO
ioctl to cciss. The primary purpose is for clustering and high-availibilty.
But now anyone can exploit this ioctl in any manner they wish.

Note, SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND doesn't work with this patch due to rq->errors
being set incorrectly.  Subsequent patch fixes that.

b2bbe383ef dtlk: fix error checks in module_init()
This patch fixes two things in module_init.

- fix register_chrdev() error check

  Currently dtlk doesn't check register_chrdev() failure correctly.
  register_chrdev() returns a errno on failure.

- check probe failure

  dtlk ignores probe failure and allows the module loading without
  such device. I got "Trying to free nonexistent resource" message
  by release_region() when unloading module without device.

this only worked for PCI, leaving a notable hole.

7328508274 remove artificial software max_loop limit
Remove artificial maximum 256 loop device that can be created due to a
legacy device number limit.  Searching through lkml archive, there are
several instances where users complained about the artificial limit that
the loop driver impose.  There is no reason to have such limit.

This patch rid the limit entirely and make loop device and associated block
queue instantiation on demand.  With on-demand instantiation, it also gives
the benefit of not wasting memory if these devices are not in use (compare
to current implementation that always create 8 loop devices), a net
improvement in both areas.  This version is both tested with creation of
large number of loop devices and is compatible with existing losetup/mount
user land tools.

There are a number of people who worked on this and provided valuable
suggestions, in no particular order, by:

62456726d7 Fix 82875 PCI setup
The 82875 EDAC driver enables an otherwise-hidden PCI device, but doesn't
register it as a PCI device properly.  Therefore, the device list in
/proc/bus/pci/devices is different than the tree in /sys/bus/pci.  This
usually manifests as the X server failing to start, since it expects the
two lists to be consistent.
