This patch (as721) makes dev_info and related macros print the device's
bus name if the device doesn't have a driver, instead of printing just a
blank.  If the device isn't on a bus either... well, then it does leave
a blank space.  But it will be easier for someone else to change if they
want.

We need to create the "compatible" symlinks that class_devices used to
create when they were in the class directories so that userspace does
not know anything changed at all.

Yeah, we have a lot of symlinks now, but we should be able to get rid of
them in a year or two... (wishful thinking...)

Like the SUBSYTEM= key we find in the environment of the uevent, this
creates a generic "subsystem" link in sysfs for every device. Userspace
usually doesn't care at all if its a "class" or a "bus" device. This
provides an unified way to determine the subsytem of a device, regardless
of the way the driver core has created it.

This is the first step in moving class_device to being replaced by
struct device.  It allows struct device to export a dev_t and makes it
easy to dynamically create and destroy struct device as long as they are
associated with a specific class.

This is a refresh of an earlier patch to add "wakeup" support to the
PM core model.  This provides per-device bus-neutral control of the
use of wakeup events.

  * "struct device_pm_info" has two bits that are initialized as
    part of setting up the enclosing struct device:
      - "can_wakeup", reflecting hardware capabilities
      - "may_wakeup", the policy setting (when CONFIG_PM)

  * There's a writeable sysfs "wakeup" file, with one of two values:
      - "enabled", when the policy is to allow wakeup
      - "disabled", when the policy is not to allow it
      - "" if the device can't currently issue wakeups

By default, wakeup is enabled on all devices that support it.  If its
driver doesn't support it ... treat it as a bug.  :)

The problem is that klists claim to provide semantics for safe traversal of
lists which are being modified.  The failure case is when traversal of a
list causes element removal (a fairly common case).  The issue is that
although the list node is refcounted, if it is embedded in an object (which
is universally the case), then the object will be freed regardless of the
klist refcount leading to slab corruption because the klist iterator refers
to the prior element to get the next.

The solution is to make the klist take and release references to the
embedding object meaning that the embedding object won't be released until
the list relinquishes the reference to it.

(akpm: fast-track this because it's needed for the 2.6.13 scsi merge)

at the moment, the list_head semantics are

list_add(node, head)

whereas current klist semantics are

klist_add(head, node)

This is bound to cause confusion, and since klist is the newcomer, it
should follow the list_head semantics.

I also added missing include guards to klist.h

- Use driver_for_each_device() in driver_detach() so we don't deadlock on the

This adds a per-device semaphore that is taken before every call from the core to a
driver method. This prevents e.g. simultaneous calls to the ->suspend() or ->resume()
and ->probe() or ->release(), potentially saving a whole lot of headaches.

It also moves us a step closer to removing the bus rwsem, since it protects the fields
in struct device that are modified by the core.

The driver model has a "detach_state" mechanism that:

 - Has never been used by any in-kernel drive;
 - Is superfluous, since driver remove() methods can do the same thing;
 - Became buggy when the suspend() parameter changed semantics and type;
 - Could self-deadlock when called from certain suspend contexts;
 - Is effectively wasted documentation, object code, and headspace.

This removes that "detach_state" mechanism; net code shrink, as well
as a per-device saving in the driver model and sysfs.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
