Linus Torvalds 6cbf0c704d iomap: make the default iomap functions fail softer
We used to BUG_ON() for a badly mapped IO port, which is certainly
correct, but actually made it harder to debug the case where the ATA
drivers had incorrectly mapped a nonconnected ATA port.

So make badly mapped ports trigger a WARN_ON(), and throw the IO away
instead (and return all ones for reads).  For things like broken driver
initialization - which is the most likely cause anyway - that should
mean that the machine comes up and is usable (at least that was the case
for the ATA breakage that triggered this patch).

It tends to be a whole lot easier to do a "dmesg" on a working machine
than to try to capture logs off a dead one.

Al Viro 5ea8176994 [PATCH] sort the devres mess out
* Split the implementation-agnostic stuff in separate files.
* Make sure that targets using non-default request_irq() pull
  kernel/irq/devres.o
* Introduce new symbols (HAS_IOPORT and HAS_IOMEM) defaulting to positive;
  allow architectures to turn them off (we needed these symbols anyway for
  dependencies of quite a few drivers).
* protect the ioport-related parts of lib/devres.o with CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT.

Tejun Heo d24bbbf251 devres: implement pcim_iomap_regions()
Implement pcim_iomap_regions().  This function takes mask of BARs to
request and iomap.  No BAR should have length of zero.  BARs are
iomapped using pcim_iomap_table().

Tejun Heo 9ac7849e35 devres: device resource management
Implement device resource management, in short, devres.  A device
driver can allocate arbirary size of devres data which is associated
with a release function.  On driver detach, release function is
invoked on the devres data, then, devres data is freed.

devreses are typed by associated release functions.  Some devreses are
better represented by single instance of the type while others need
multiple instances sharing the same release function.  Both usages are
supported.

devreses can be grouped using devres group such that a device driver
can easily release acquired resources halfway through initialization
or selectively release resources (e.g. resources for port 1 out of 4
ports).

This patch adds devres core including documentation and the following
managed interfaces.

* alloc/free	: devm_kzalloc(), devm_kzfree()
* IO region	: devm_request_region(), devm_release_region()
* IRQ		: devm_request_irq(), devm_free_irq()
* DMA		: dmam_alloc_coherent(), dmam_free_coherent(),
		  dmam_declare_coherent_memory(), dmam_pool_create(),
		  dmam_pool_destroy()
* PCI		: pcim_enable_device(), pcim_pin_device(), pci_is_managed()
* iomap		: devm_ioport_map(), devm_ioport_unmap(), devm_ioremap(),
		  devm_ioremap_nocache(), devm_iounmap(), pcim_iomap_table(),
		  pcim_iomap(), pcim_iounmap()

Linus Torvalds 34ba8a5cd0 [PATCH] Arch provides generic iomap missing accessors
Allow architectures to provide their own implementation of the big endian MMIO
accessors and "repeat" MMIO accessors for use by the generic iomap.

James Bottomley dae409a277 [PATCH] add Big Endian variants of ioread/iowrite
In the new io infrastructure, all of our operators are expecting the
underlying device to be little endian (because the PCI bus, their main
consumer, is LE).

However, there are a fair few devices and busses in the world that are
actually Big Endian.  There's even evidence that some of these BE bus and
chip types are attached to LE systems.  Thus, there's a need for a BE
equivalent of our io{read,write}{16,32} operations.

The attached patch adds this as io{read,write}{16,32}be.  When it's in,
I'll add the first consume (the 53c700 SCSI chip driver).

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
