2008-01-24kobject: get rid of kobject_add_dirGreg Kroah-Hartman
kobject_create_and_add is the same as kobject_add_dir, so drop kobject_add_dir. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-01-24kobject: add kobject_create_and_add functionGreg Kroah-Hartman
This lets users create dynamic kobjects much easier. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-01-24kset: add kset_create_and_add functionGreg Kroah-Hartman
Now ksets can be dynamically created on the fly, no static definitions are required. Thanks to Miklos for hints on how to make this work better for the callers. And thanks to Kay for finding some stupid bugs in my original version and pointing out that we need to handle the fact that kobject's can have a kset as a parent and to handle that properly in kobject_add().

2008-01-24kobject: remove kobj_set_kset_s as no one is using it anymoreGreg Kroah-Hartman
What a confusing name for a macro... Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-01-24kobject: remove struct kobj_type from struct ksetGreg Kroah-Hartman
We don't need a "default" ktype for a kset. We should set this explicitly every time for each kset. This change is needed so that we can make ksets dynamic, and cleans up one of the odd, undocumented assumption that the kset/kobject/ktype model has. This patch is based on a lot of help from Kay Sievers. Nasty bug in the block code was found by Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Cc: Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-01-24kobject: add kobject_init_and_add functionGreg Kroah-Hartman
Also add a kobject_init_and_add function which bundles up what a lot of the current callers want to do all at once, and it properly handles the memory usages, unlike kobject_register(); Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-01-24kobject: add kobject_add_ng functionGreg Kroah-Hartman
This is what the kobject_add function is going to become. Add this to the kernel and then we can convert the tree over to use it. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2008-01-24kobject: fix up kobject_set_name to use kvasprintfGreg Kroah-Hartman
Kay pointed out that kobject_set_name was being very stupid, doing two allocations for every call, when it should just be using the kernel function kvasprintf() instead. This change adds the internal kobject_set_name_vargs() function, which other follow-on patches will be using. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-01-24kobject: convert icom to use kref, not kobjectGreg Kroah-Hartman
The IBM icom serial driver is using a kobject only for reference counting, nothing else. So switch it to use a kref instead, which is all that is needed, and is much smaller.

Instead of walking from the source down to the root of sysfs, and back to the target, we stop at the first directory the source and the target share.

2008-01-24ecryptfs: clean up attribute messGreg Kroah-Hartman
It isn't that hard to add simple kset attributes, so don't go through all the gyrations of creating your own object type and show and store functions. Just use the functions that are already present. This makes things much simpler. Note, the version_str string violates the "one value per file" rule for sysfs. I suggest changing this now (individual files per type supported is one suggested way.)

2008-01-24PM: Acquire device locks on suspendRafael J. Wysocki
This patch reorganizes the way suspend and resume notifications are sent to drivers. The major changes are that now the PM core acquires every device semaphore before calling the methods, and calls to device_add() during suspends will fail, while calls to device_del() during suspends will block. It also provides a way to safely remove a suspended device with the help of the PM core, by using the device_pm_schedule_removal() callback introduced specifically for this purpose, and updates two drivers (msr and cpuid) that need to use it.

2008-01-24spi: omap2_mcspi PIO RX fixKalle Valo
Before transmission of the last word in PIO RX_ONLY mode rx+tx mode is enabled: /* prevent last RX_ONLY read from triggering * more word i/o: switch to rx+tx */ if (c == 0 && tx == NULL) mcspi_write_cs_reg(spi, OMAP2_MCSPI_CHCONF0, l); But because c is decremented after the test, c will never be zero and rx+tx will not be enabled. This breaks RX_ONLY mode PIO transfers. Fix it by decrementing c in the beginning of the various I/O loops.
