      proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::owner · 99b76233
      Alexey Dobriyan 提交于
      Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
      as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
      ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
      in module refcount underflow.
      
      We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
      and ->data.
      
      But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
      and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
      switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
      some thoughts.
      
      ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
      protection.
      
      rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
      And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
      We definitely don't want such modular code.
      
      Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
      
      So, let's nuke it.
      
      Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

      revert "ACPI: drivers/acpi: elide a non-zero test on a result that is never 0" · 48d3d826
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Revert commit 1192aeb9 ("ACPI:
      drivers/acpi: elide a non-zero test on a result that is never 0")
      because it turns out that thermal_cooling_device_register() does
      actually return NULL if CONFIG_THERMAL is turned off (then the routine
      turns into a dummy inline routine in the header files that returns NULL
      unconditionally).
      
      This was found with randconfig testing, causing a crash during bootup:
      
        initcall 0x78878534 ran for 13 msecs: acpi_button_init+0x0/0x51()
