mv643xx_eth: get rid of static variables, allow multiple instances

2008-04-29T04:17:07+00:00

Move mv643xx_eth's static state (ethernet register block base address
and MII management interface spinlock) into a struct hanging off the
shared platform device.  This is necessary to support chips that
contain multiple mv643xx_eth silicon blocks.

[I2C] i2c-mv64xxx: Don't set i2c_adapter.retries

2008-01-26T15:04:01+00:00

I2C adapter drivers are supposed to handle retries on nack by themselves
if they do, so there's no point in setting .retries if they don't.

As this retry mechanism is going away (at least in its current form),
clean this up now so that we don't get build failures later.

[WATCHDOG] mv64x60_wdt: set up platform_device in platform code

2007-07-24T18:56:35+00:00

The driver previously registered its platform device data in its own
init function--that's bogus.  Move that code to platform-specific
code in arch/ppc.  This is being done so that the platform code can
decide at runtime whether to initialize this driver or not.

sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->owner

2007-07-11T23:09:06+00:00

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game.  After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners.  Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.

This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner.  Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.

For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
following message.

(tweaked by Greg to not delete the field just yet, to make it easier to
merge things properly.)

mv643xx_eth: Place explicit port number in mv643xx_eth_platform_data

2007-03-06T11:14:54+00:00

We were using the platform_device.id field to identify which ethernet
port is used for mv643xx_eth device.  This is not generally correct.
It will be incorrect, for example, if a hardware platform uses a single
port but not the first port.  Here, we add an explicit port_number field
to struct mv643xx_eth_platform_data.

This makes the mv643xx_eth_platform_data structure required, but that
isn't an issue since all users currently provide it already.

[PATCH] powerpc: trivial: modify comments to refer to new location of files

2006-02-10T05:53:51+00:00

This patch removes all self references and fixes references to files
in the now defunct arch/ppc64 tree.  I think this accomplises
everything wanted, though there might be a few references I missed.
