The <linux/device.h> header includes a lot of stuff, and
it in turn gets a lot of use just for the basic "struct device"
which appears so often.
Clean up the users as follows:
1) For those headers only needing "struct device" as a pointer
in fcn args, replace the include with exactly that.
2) For headers not really using anything from device.h, simply
delete the include altogether.
3) For headers relying on getting device.h implicitly before
being included themselves, now explicitly include device.h
4) For files in which doing #1 or #2 uncovers an implicit
dependency on some other header, fix by explicitly adding
the required header(s).
Any C files that were implicitly relying on device.h to be
present have already been dealt with in advance.
Total removals from #1 and #2: 51. Total additions coming
from #3: 9. Total other implicit dependencies from #4: 7.
As of 3.3-rc1, there were 110, so a net removal of 42 gives
about a 38% reduction in device.h presence in include/*

Hardware Spinlock devices usually contain numerous locks (known
devices today support between 32 to 256 locks).
Originally hwspinlock core required drivers to register (and later,
when needed, unregister) each lock separately.
That worked, but required hwspinlocks drivers to do a bit extra work
when they were probed/removed.
This patch changes hwspin_lock_{un}register() to allow a bank of
hwspinlocks to be {un}registered in a single invocation.
A new 'struct hwspinlock_device', which contains an array of 'struct
hwspinlock's is now being passed to the core upon registration (so
instead of wrapping each struct hwspinlock, a priv member has been added
to allow drivers to piggyback their private data with each hwspinlock).
While at it, several per-lock members were moved to be per-device:
1. struct device *dev
2. struct hwspinlock_ops *ops
In addition, now that the array of locks is handled by the core,
there's no reason to maintain a per-lock 'int id' member: the id of the
lock anyway equals to its index in the bank's array plus the bank's
base_id.
Remove this per-lock id member too, and instead use a simple pointers
arithmetic to derive it.
As a result of this change, hwspinlocks drivers are now simpler and smaller
(about %20 code reduction) and the memory footprint of the hwspinlock
framework is reduced.

hwspinlock drivers must anyway select CONFIG_HWSPINLOCK,
so there's no point in having register/unregister stubs.
Removing those stubs will only make it easier for developers
to catch CONFIG_HWSPINLOCK mis-.config-urations.

hwspinlock devices provide system-wide hardware locks that are used
by remote processors that have no other way to achieve synchronization.
To achieve that, each physical lock must have a system-wide id number
that is agreed upon, otherwise remote processors can't possibly assume
they're using the same hardware lock.
Usually boards have a single hwspinlock device, which provides several
hwspinlocks, and in this case, they can be trivially numbered 0 to
(num-of-locks - 1).
In case boards have several hwspinlocks devices, a different base id
should be used for each hwspinlock device (they can't all use 0 as
a starting id!).
While this is certainly not common, it's just plain wrong to just
silently use 0 as a base id whenever the hwspinlock driver is probed.
This patch provides a hwspinlock_pdata structure, that boards can use
to set a different base id for each of the hwspinlock devices they may
have, and demonstrates how to use it with the omap hwspinlock driver.
While we're at it, make sure the hwspinlock core prints an explicit
error message in case an hwspinlock is registered with an id number
that already exists; this will help users catch such base id issues.

Add a platform-independent hwspinlock framework.
Hardware spinlock devices are needed, e.g., in order to access data
that is shared between remote processors, that otherwise have no
alternative mechanism to accomplish synchronization and mutual exclusion
operations.
