2010-10-22tty: Make tiocgicount a handlerAlan Cox
Dan Rosenberg noted that various drivers return the struct with uncleared fields. Instead of spending forever trying to stomp all the drivers that get it wrong (and every new driver) do the job in one place. This first patch adds the needed operations and hooks them up, including the needed USB midlayer and serial core plumbing.

2010-10-22Char: mxser, call pci_disable_device from probe/removeJiri Slaby
Vasiliy found that pci_disable_device is not called on fail paths in mxser_probe. Actually, it is called from nowhere in the driver. There are three changes needed: 1) don't use pseudo-generic mxser_release_res. Let's use it only from ISA paths from now on. All the pci stuff is moved to probe and remove PCI-related functions. 2) reorder fail-paths in the probe function so that it makes sense and we can call them from the sequential code naturally (the further we are the earlier label we go to). 3) add pci_disable_device both to mxser_probe and mxser_remove. There is a nit of adding CONFIG_PCI ifdef to mxser_remove. it is because this driver supports ISA-only compilations and it would choke up on the newly added calls now.

2010-10-22serial-core: restore termios settings when resume console portsJason Wang
The commit 4547be7 rewrites suspend and resume functions. According to this rewrite, when a serial port is a printk console device and can suspend(without set no_console_suspend flag), it will definitely call set_termios function during its resume, but parameter termios isn't initialized, this will pass an unpredictable config to the serial port. If this serial port is not a userspace opened tty device , a suspend and resume action will make this serial port unusable. I.E. ttyS0 is a printk console device, ttyS1 or keyboard+display is userspace tty device, a suspend/resume action will make ttyS0 unusable. If a serial port is both a printk console device and an opened tty device, this issue can be overcome because it will call set_termios again with the correct parameter in the uart_change_speed function. Refer to the deleted content of commit 4547be7, revert parts relate to restore settings into parameter termios. It is safe because if a serial port is a printk console only device, the only meaningful field in termios is c_cflag and its old config is saved in uport->cons->cflag, if this port is also an opened tty device, it will clear uport->cons->cflag in the uart_open and the old config is saved in tty->termios.

2010-10-22serial-core: skip call set_termios/console_start when no_console_suspendJason Wang
The commit 4547be7 rewrites suspend and resume functions, this introduces a problem on the OMAP3EVM platoform. when the kernel boots with no_console_suspend and we suspend the kernel, then resume it, the serial console will be not usable. This problem should be common for all platforms. The cause for this problem is that when enter suspend, if we choose no_console_suspend, the console_stop will be skiped. But in resume function, the console port will be set to uninitialized state by calling set_termios function and the console_start is called without checking whether the no_console_suspend is set, Now fix it.

2010-10-22SYSFS: Allow boot time switching between deprecated and modern sysfs layoutAndi Kleen
I have some systems which need legacy sysfs due to old tools that are making assumptions that a directory can never be a symlink to another directory, and it's a big hazzle to compile separate kernels for them. This patch turns CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED into a run time option that can be switched on/off the kernel command line. This way the same binary can be used in both cases with just a option on the command line. The old CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 option is still there to set the default. I kept the weird name to not break existing config files. Also the compat code can be still completely disabled by undefining CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_SWITCH -- just the optimizer takes care of this now instead of lots of ifdefs. This makes the code look nicer. v2: This is an updated version on top of Kay's patch to only handle the block devices. I tested it on my old systems and that seems to work.

2010-10-22base/platform: Simplifications for NULL platform data/resources handlingAnton Vorontsov
There's no need to explicitly check for data and resources being NULL, as platform_device_add_{data,resources}() do this internally nowadays. This makes the code more linear and less indented. Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <cbouatmailru@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2010-10-22base/platform: Safe handling for NULL platform data and resourcesAnton Vorontsov
Some users of platform_device_add_{data,resources}() assume that NULL data and resources will be handled specially, i.e. just ignored. But the platform core ends up calling kmemdup(NULL, 0, ...), which returns a non-NULL result (i.e. ZERO_SIZE_PTR), which causes drivers to oops on a valid code, something like: if (platform_data) stuff = platform_data->stuff; This patch makes the platform core a bit more safe for such cases.

2010-10-22add Packet hub driver for Topcliff Platform controller hubMasayuki Ohtak
Packet hub driver of Topcliff PCH Topcliff PCH is the platform controller hub that is going to be used in Intel's upcoming general embedded platform. All IO peripherals in Topcliff PCH are actually devices sitting on AMBA bus. Packet hub is a special converter device in Topcliff PCH that translate AMBA transactions to PCI Express transactions and vice versa. Thus packet hub helps present all IO peripherals in Topcliff PCH as PCIE devices to IA system. Topcliff PCH has MAC address and Option ROM data. These data are in SROM which is connected to PCIE bus. Packet hub driver of Topcliff PCH can access MAC address and Option ROM data in SROM via sysfs interface. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2010-10-22driver core: platform_bus: allow runtime override of dev_pm_opsKevin Hilman
Currently, the platform_bus allows customization of several of the busses dev_pm_ops methods by using weak symbols so that platform code can override them. The weak-symbol approach is not scalable when wanting to support multiple platforms in a single kernel binary. Instead, provide __init methods for platform code to customize the dev_pm_ops methods at runtime. NOTE: after these dynamic methods are merged, the weak symbols should be removed from drivers/base/platform.c. AFAIK, this will only affect SH and sh-mobile which should be converted to use this runtime approach instead of the weak symbols. After SH & sh-mobile are converted, the weak symobols could be removed. Tested on OMAP3.
