When a dynamically created comedi device is being automatically removed by a call to `comedi_auto_unconfig()` from the lower level driver, `comedi_device_cleanup()` is called to perform the detachment from the lower level driver. If the comedi device is open at the time, `dev->use_count` will be the the number of outstanding opens. The function currently decrements the the module counts of the "comedi" module and the low-level driver module by this amount and reduces `dev->use_count` to zero. There are various problems with this as the `release` file operation handler `comedi_close()` also decrements `dev->use_count` and decrements the module usage counts. This means that `dev->use_count` and the module counts can end up negative. Also, the assumed one-to-one relationship between the file open count and the low-level module usage count is invalid and can get screwed up. We only want to stop the low-level module being unloaded while a comedi device using the module has an open file object. Also, there is no need to manipulate the module count of the core "comedi" module at all since the comedi module is the owner of the file operations structure and the system will not unload the module while there are open file objects using it. Correct the bugs and simplify as follows: 1. Get rid of the module count manipulations of the core "comedi" module (`THIS_MODULE`) altogether. 2. Don't alter `dev->use_count` in `comedi_device_cleanup()` as it should only be altered by the `open` and `release` file operation handlers `comedi_open()` and `comedi_close()`. 3. Increment the low-level module count for the following reasons: a) In `comedi_open()` if the open count was zero and the comedi device is attached to the low-level driver. b) When the `COMEDI_DEVCONFIG` ioctl is used to manually attach an unattached comedi device to a low-level driver. The open count will be greater than zero at this time. The actual increment of the low-level module count is already done by `comedi_device_attach()`. 4. Decrement the low-level module count for the following reasons: a) In `comedi_close()` if the open count was 1 and the comedi device is attached to the low-level driver. b) In `comedi_device_cleanup()` (called via `comedi_auto_unconfig()` --> `comedi_release_hardware_device()` --> `comedi_free_board_dev()` when the comedi device is automatically unconfigured due to action by the low-level driver) if the device was attached (which it should be) and open count was non-zero (greater than zero). c) When the `COMEDI_DEVCONFIG` ioctl is used to manually detach the comedi device from the low-level driver. The open count will be greater than zero at this time. The open count should never go negative. Parts 3 and 4 ensure that the low-level module usage count is incremented on entering the state where the comedi device is attached to the low-level driver AND the open count is greater than zero, and is decremented on leaving that state.

When a dynamically allocated `struct comedi_device` gets automatically unconfigured by a call to `comedi_auto_unconfig()` from a lower-level driver's bus removal function (e.g. when a USB device is disconnected), the class device in `dev->class_dev` (where `dev` points to the `struct comedi_device`) is destroyed by a call to `device_destroy()` that matches a previous call to `device_create()`. However, if the `struct comedi_device` is still associated with an open file object, the now invalid `dev->class_dev` pointer may still be passed to `dev_printk()` (via `dev_dbg()` etc.), producing bogus output or worse. To fix this, call `get_device()` on the class device if `device_create()` was successful. Add a matching call to `put_device()` in `comedi_dev_kref_release()` when the `struct comedi_device` is freed. The calls to `dev_dbg()` etc. after the call to `device_destroy()` will still produce valid output, although the device will have been unregistered in sysfs.

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives and hence don't need to include <linux/init.h>. Most are just a left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to code getting copied from one driver to the next.

Commit 559c71fe ("Staging: TIDSPBRIDGE: Use vm_iomap_memory for mmap-ing instead of remap_pfn_range") had the effect of inadvertently shifting the start of the physical memory area mapped by pdata->phys_mempool_base. Correct this by subtracting that shift before calling vm_iomap_memory() and adding it back afterwards.
