- Use PCI_BUS_NUM_RESOURCES instead of hardcoded `4' in pci_find_parent_resource; - clean up pci_claim_resource() and make it a bit more informative on errors; - pdev_sort_resources() must be __devinit, as it's called from pbus_assign_resources_sorted(), which is __devinit now; - fix one remaining dev->name in debugging printk.

The detection of subtractive decoding bridges is broken: `class' variable doesn't contain ProgIf byte at this point, I should check `dev->class' instead. This fixes resource allocation problems on certain docking stations.

The dev_t argument of sys_mknod is passed to vfs_mknod, and is then cast to int when foo_mknod is called, and is subsequently very often cast back to dev_t. (For example, minix_mknod() calls minix_set_inode() that takes a dev_t.) This is a cleanup that avoids this back-and-forth casting by giving foo_mknod a prototype with dev_t. In most cases now the dev_t is transmitted untouched until init_special_inode. It also makes the two routines hugetlbfs_get_inode() and shmem_get_inode() static.

Fixes miscalculation of required module size due to alignment issues of first section after common, and also doesn't think that no init section is an allocation failure.

Patch from Adam Richter. I have a nicer solution based on aliases, but it requires coordination with USB, PCI and PCMCIA maintainers, which is taking time. This restores the old code in the meantime: one week without this is too long for people who need it.

This removes Rules.make inclusions, makes make clean work properly, removes EXTRA_TARGETS where not needed, and fixes a couple of compile warnings in the boot wrappers where <linux/string.h> wasn't included.

This solves some mutual inclusion problems.

Also use strsep in ibmmca.c, as strtok is gone from the kernel.

parse_interface allocates the incorrect storage size for additional altsettings (new buffer) leading to a BUG being triggered in mm/slab.c:1453 when we do the memcpy from the old buffer to the new buffer (writing beyond new buffer). Patch appended, tested with an OV511 on an Intel PIIX4

Al pointed out that the current name of get_lease is extremely confusing and I agree. This (a) renames it to break_lease and (b) fixes a bug noticed by Dave Hansen which could cause a NULL pointer dereference under high load.

This makes the driver model core (for devices) exploit the kobject infrastructure more and make the resulting code quite a bit simpler. For one, device_register() mimmicks kobject_register() in that it now only calls device_initialize() and device_add() back to back. Similarly, device_unregister() calls device_del() and put_device() consecutively. device_del() no longer removes and frees the device, it only removes them. It also removes the devices from the global and sibling lists. This was previously done by device_put(), but moved here to be symmetrical with device_add(). The device's parent is now only incremented in device_add() and decremented in device_del(), fixing a bug in which the parent's refcount was incremented twice. Because of these simplifications, the core can easily be converted to use the kobject reference counting infrastructure. get_device() now simply forwards the call to kobject_get() and ditto for put_device(). device_release() is implemented to handle the freeing of devices once their reference count reaches 0. Since we're using the kobject refcounting model, we no longer need the checking or setting of the device state field, so it has been removed. The only users of it were the power routines. In those, it is implicit that we have a valid device, since we've already taken device_sem, and we're walking the list (all modifications are protected by device_sem). struct device::lock, and the helpers to lock/unlock have been removed. No one has ever used them, and no one is likely to use them.

- removed a few #ifdefs in the main code - cleaned up the failure logic in initialization.

This removes the code from cap_sysget that fills out the capability set being returned to userspace. The module handles this in a policy specific way. This updates the dummy.c module to fill in return data according to superuser policy, and also disables setting capabilities in superuser policy.

sysfs has always had a bug that would allow a read-only file to be opened for writing. It has also returned 0 on write when there was no store method defined for the file. This addresses both via sysfs_open_file(). It checks the flags the file was opened with and compares them with the mode of the inode. If the mode does not support the flags passed, -EPERM is returned. If the sysfs_ops for the object does not have the correct method for the flags, -EACCESS is returned. Since all checks happen on open(), the corresponding checks in the read() and write() methods have been removed.

from "write()" is an error condition, and hang retrying. Return EINVAL in sysfs instead.
