2010-05-26backlight: add S6E63M0 AMOLED LCD Panel driverInKi Dae
This is S6E63M0 AMOLED LCD Panel(480x800) driver using 3-wired SPI interface also almost features for lcd panel driver has been implemented in here. and I added new structure common for all the lcd panel drivers to include/linux/lcd.h file. LCD Panel driver needs interfaces for controlling device power such as power on/off and reset. these interfaces are device specific so it should be implemented to machine code at this time, we should create new structure for registering these functions as callbacks and also a header file for that structure and finally registered callback functions would be called by lcd panel driver. such header file(including new structure for lcd panel) would be added for all the lcd panel drivers. If anyone provides common structure for registering such callback functions then we could reduce unnecessary header files for lcd panel. I thought that suitable anyone could be include/linux/lcd.h so a new lcd_platform_data structure was added there.

2010-05-26leds: leds-gpio: Change blink_set callback to be able to turn off blinkingBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The leds-gpio blink_set() callback follows the same prototype as the main leds subsystem blink_set() one. The problem is that to stop blink, normally, a leds driver does it in the brightness_set() callback when asked to set a new fixed value. However, with leds-gpio, the platform has no hook to do so, as this later callback results in a standard GPIO manipulation. This changes the leds-gpio specific callback to take a new argument that indicates whether the LED should be blinking or not and in what state it should be set if not. We also update the dns323 platform which seems to be the only user of this so far.

2010-05-25libata: disable ATAPI AN by defaultTejun Heo
There are ATAPI devices which raise AN when hit by commands issued by open(). This leads to infinite loop of AN -> MEDIA_CHANGE uevent -> udev open() to check media -> AN. Both ACS and SerialATA standards don't define in which case ATAPI devices are supposed to raise or not raise AN. They both list media insertion event as a possible use case for ATAPI ANs but there is no clear description of what constitutes such events. As such, it seems a bit too naive to export ANs directly to userland as MEDIA_CHANGE events without further verification (which should behave similarly to windows as it apparently is the only thing that some hardware vendors are testing against). This patch adds libata.atapi_an module parameter and disables ATAPI AN by default for now.

2010-05-25libata-sff: make BMDMA optionalTejun Heo
Make BMDMA optional depending on new config variable CONFIG_ATA_BMDMA. In Kconfig, drivers are grouped into five groups - non-SFF native, SFF w/ custom DMA interface, SFF w/ BMDMA, PIO-only SFF, and generic fallback / legacy ones. Kconfig and Makefile are reorganized according to the groups and ordered alphabetically inside each group. ata_ioports.bmdma_addr and ata_port.bmdma_prd[_dma] are put into CONFIG_ATA_BMDMA, as are all bmdma related ops, variables and functions. This increase the binary size slightly when BMDMA is enabled but on both native-only and PIO-only configurations the size is slightly reduced. Either way, the size difference is insignificant. This change is more meaningful to signify the separation between SFF and BMDMA and as a tool to verify the separation.

Common parts are factored into __ata_sff_port_intr() and __ata_sff_interrupt() and used by sff and bmdma interrupt routines. All BMDMA drivers now use ata_bmdma_interrupt() or ata_bmdma_port_intr() while all non-BMDMA SFF ones use ata_sff_interrupt() or ata_sff_port_intr().

2010-05-25driver core: add devname module aliases to allow module on-demand auto-loadingKay Sievers
This adds: alias: devname:<name> to some common kernel modules, which will allow the on-demand loading of the kernel module when the device node is accessed. Ideally all these modules would be compiled-in, but distros seems too much in love with their modularization that we need to cover the common cases with this new facility. It will allow us to remove a bunch of pretty useless init scripts and modprobes from init scripts. The static device node aliases will be carried in the module itself. The program depmod will extract this information to a file in the module directory: $ cat /lib/modules/2.6.34-00650-g537b60d-dirty/modules.devname # Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading. microcode cpu/microcode c10:184 fuse fuse c10:229 ppp_generic ppp c108:0 tun net/tun c10:200 dm_mod mapper/control c10:235 Udev will pick up the depmod created file on startup and create all the static device nodes which the kernel modules specify, so that these modules get automatically loaded when the device node is accessed: $ /sbin/udevd --debug ... static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/cpu/microcode' c10:184 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/fuse' c10:229 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/ppp' c108:0 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/net/tun' c10:200 static_dev_create_from_modules: mknod '/dev/mapper/control' c10:235 udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/net/tun' 0666 udev_rules_apply_static_dev_perms: chmod '/dev/fuse' 0666 A few device nodes are switched to statically allocated numbers, to allow the static nodes to work. This might also useful for systems which still run a plain static /dev, which is completely unsafe to use with any dynamic minor numbers. Note: The devname aliases must be limited to the *common* and *single*instance* device nodes, like the misc devices, and never be used for conceptually limited systems like the loop devices, which should rather get fixed properly and get a control node for losetup to talk to, instead of creating a random number of device nodes in advance, regardless if they are ever used. This facility is to hide the mess distros are creating with too modualized kernels, and just to hide that these modules are not compiled-in, and not to paper-over broken concepts.
