Stop using kobject_register for this static kobject, as it's overkill. This way is much simpler. Cc: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

The kobject in the bridge code is only used for registering with sysfs, not for any lifespan rules. This patch changes it to be only a pointer and use the simpler api for this kind of thing.

The uio kobject code is "wierd". This patch should hopefully fix it up to be sane and not leak memory anymore.

The kobject debugging messages are a mess. This provides a unified message that makes them actually useful. The format for new kobject debug messages should be: kobject: 'KOBJECT_NAME' (ADDRESS): FUNCTION_NAME: message.\n Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

kobject_init should not be grabing any references, but only initializing the object. This patch fixes this, and makes the lock hold-time shorter for when a kset is present in the kobject. The current kernel tree has been audited to verify that this change should be safe. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

/sys/power should not be a kset, that's overkill. This patch renames it to power_kset and fixes up all usages of it in the tree. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

device_shutdown does not need to be in a separate file. Move it into the driver core file where it belongs. This also moves us one more step closer to making devices_kset static, now only the crazy sysdevs are keeping that from happening... Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

shutdown.c had some stuff it did not need, including a duplicate extern in the power.h file. This cleans up all of that. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

rpadlpar pci hotplug driver was doing some pretty bad stuff with the sysfs files. This cleans up the logic to be sane and gets rid of the gratuitous kset that is not needed for a simple directory like this. Note, this patch is not even build tested, let alone run-time tested. Someone with access to this hardware and can test would be greatly appreciated.

kernel_kset does not need to be a kset, but a much simpler kobject now that we have kobj_attributes. We also rename kernel_kset to kernel_kobj to catch all users of this symbol with a build error instead of an easy-to-ignore build warning.

This macro is no longer used. ksets should be created dynamically with a call to kset_create_and_add() not declared statically. Yes, there are 5 remaining static struct kset usages in the kernel tree, but they will be fixed up soon. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

There is no firmware "subsystem" it's just a directory in /sys that other portions of the kernel want to hook into. So make it a kobject not a kset to help alivate anyone who tries to do some odd kset-like things with this.

These functions are no longer called or needed, so we can remove them. As I rewrote the whole firmware.c file, add my copyright. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Remove the no longer needed subsys_attributes, they are all converted to the more sensical kobj_attributes. There is no longer a magic fallback in sysfs attribute operations, all kobjects which create simple attributes need explicitely a ktype assigned, which tells the core what was intended here.

This makes the code a bit simpler and and gets us one step closer to deleting the deprecated subsys_attr code. NOTE, this needs the next patch in the series in order to work properly. This will build, but the sysfs files will not properly operate.
