We really shouldn't be asking userspace to create new root filesystems. So follow along with all of the other in-kernel filesystems, and provide a mount point in sysfs. For cgroupfs, this should be in /sys/fs/cgroup/ This change provides that mount point when the cgroup filesystem is registered in the kernel.

Add BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER as a bus notifier event. For driver binding/unbinding we with this in place have the following bus notifier events: - BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER - before ->probe() - BUS_NOTIFY_BOUND_DRIVER - after ->probe() - BUS_NOTIFY_UNBIND_DRIVER - before ->remove() - BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER - after ->remove() The event BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER allows bus code to be notified that ->probe() is about to be called. Useful for bus code that needs to setup hardware before the driver gets to run. With this in place platform drivers can be loaded and unloaded as modules and the new BIND event allows bus code to control for instance device clocks that must be enabled before the driver can be executed. Without this patch there is no way for the bus code to get notified that a modular driver is about to be probed.

debugfs no longer uses 'kernel_subsys' (which is gone), and other kernel/ksysfs.c code is always built, so DEBUG_FS does not need to depend on SYSFS. Fixes this kconfig warning: warning: (TREE_RCU_TRACE || AMD_IOMMU_STATS && AMD_IOMMU || MTD_UBI_DEBUG && MTD && SYSFS && MTD_UBI || UBIFS_FS_DEBUG && MISC_FILESYSTEMS && UBIFS_FS || DEBUG_KMEMLEAK && DEBUG_KERNEL && EXPERIMENTAL && !MEMORY_HOTPLUG && (X86 || ARM || PPC || S390 || SPARC64 || SUPERH || MICROBLAZE) && SYSFS || TRACING || X86_PTDUMP && DEBUG_KERNEL || BLK_DEV_IO_TRACE && TRACING_SUPPORT && FTRACE && SYSFS && BLOCK) selects DEBUG_FS which has unmet direct dependencies (SYSFS) Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

smi_data_buf_free is called twice in current implementation. The second call simply return because smi_data_buf is set to NULL in first call. This patch removes the second smi_data_buf_free call. Signed-off-by: Axel Lin <axel.lin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Update the in-kernel hotplug example script to work properly with recent kernels. Without this fix the script may load the firmware twice - both at "add" and "remove" time. The second load only triggers in the case when multiple firmware images are used. A good example is the b43 driver which does not work properly without this fix.

Both these structures have the same lifetime rules so instead of allocating and managing them separately embed struct device into struct firmware_priv.

There is little rationale for marking bus_for_each_drv() __must_check. It is more of an iteration helper than a real function. You don't know in advance which callback it will be used on, so you have no clue how important it can be to check the returned value. In practice, this helper function can be used for best-effort tasks. As a matter of fact, bus_for_each_dev() is not marked __must_check. So remove it from bus_for_each_drv() as well. This is the same that was done back in October 2006 by Russell King for device_for_each_child(), for exactly the same reasons.

The kernel/hotplug sysctl variable (/proc/sys/kernel/hotplug file) was made conditional on CONFIG_NET by commit f743ca5e (applied in 2.6.18) to fix problems with undefined references in 2.6.16 when CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y && !CONFIG_NET, but this restriction is no longer needed. This patch makes the kernel/hotplug sysctl variable depend only on CONFIG_HOTPLUG.

We reserve the 3.75GB - 4GB region of PCIe address space for device to device transfers, making the corresponding physical memory under direct mapping unavailable for DMA. To allow for PCIe DMA to all physical memory we map this chunk of physical memory with BAR1. Because of the resulting discontinuity in the mapping function, we remove a page of memory at each end of the range so multi-page DMA buffers can never be allocated that span the range.

The sixth argument of notify_die() is a signal number, the fifth is a trap number. Instead of passing a signal number in a randomly selected argument, pass it in the sixth. Extract the exception code from regs and pass that as the trap number. Get rid of redundant cast, and remove some gratuitous spaces. Nobody actually does anything with the signal number or trap number, but we might as well populate them with sensible values.
