RTC class suspend/resume support, re-initializing the system clock on resume
from the clock used to initialize it at boot time.
- The reinit-on-resume is hooked to the existing RTC_HCTOSYS config
option, on the grounds that a clock good enough for init must also
be good enough for re-init.
- Inlining a version of the code used by ARM, to save and restore the
delta between a selected RTC and the current system wall-clock time.
- Removes calls to that ARM code from AT91, OMAP1, and S3C RTCs. This
means that systems using those RTCs across suspend/resume will likely
want to change their kernel configs to enable RTC_HCTOSYS.
If HCTOSYS isn't using a second RTC (with battery?), this changes the
system's initial date from Jan 1970 to the epoch this hardware uses:
1998 for AT91, 2000 for OMAP1 (assuming no split power mode), etc.
This goes on top of the patch series removing "struct class_device" usage
from the RTC framework. That's all needed for class suspend()/resume().

This simplifies the RTC procfs 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 also removes the class_interface hook, now that its last remaining user is
gone. (That API is usable only with a "struct class_device".)
It's another step towards being able to remove "struct class_device".

This simplifies the /dev support by removing a superfluous class_device (the

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.

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.

Add a filesystem API for <linux/spi/spi.h> stack. The initial version of
this interface is purely synchronous.
dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net:
Cleaned up, bugfixed; much simplified; added preliminary documentation.
Works with mdev given CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED; and presumably udev.
Updated SPI_IOC_MESSAGE ioctl to full spi_message semantics, supporting
groups of one or more transfers (each of which may be full duplex if
desired).
This is marked as EXPERIMENTAL with an explicit disclaimer that the API
(notably the ioctls) is subject to change.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Teach PNPACPI how to hook up its devices to their ACPI nodes, so that
pnpdev->dev.archdata points to the parallel acpi device node. Previously
this only worked for PCI, leaving a notable hole.
Export "acpi_bus_type" so this can work.
Remove some extraneous whitespace.

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:

Instead of having /dev/port support dependent in multiple places on a
string of preprocessor symbols, define a new configuration directive for
it. This ensures that all four places remain consistent with each other.
