Driver core: Revert "Fix Firmware class name collision"

2008-02-07T19:31:46+00:00

This reverts commit 109f0e93b6b728f03c1eb4af02bc25d71b646c59.

The original patch breaks BIOS updates on all Dell machines. The path to
the firmware file for the dell_rbu driver changes, which breaks all of
the userspace tools which rely on it.

Note that this patch re-introduces a problem with i2c name collision
that was previously fixed by this patch.

register_cpu devinit or cpuinit

2008-02-06T18:41:01+00:00

Is there some reason why register_cpu() is __devinit instead of __cpuinit ?
Make it __cpuinit.

Driver core: Remove unneeded get_{device,driver}() calls.

Driver core: Remove unneeded get_{device,driver}() calls.

Code trying to add/remove attributes must hold a reference to
the device resp. driver anyway, so let's remove those reference
count games.

PM: Export device_pm_schedule_removal

2008-02-02T23:14:48+00:00

Move the declaration of device_pm_schedule_removal() to device.h
and make it exported, as it will be used directly by some drivers
for unregistering device objects during suspend/resume cycles in a
safe way.

PM: Make PM_TRACE more architecture independent

2008-02-01T23:30:54+00:00

When trying to debug a suspend failure I started implementing
PM_TRACE for powerpc. I then noticed that I'm debugging a suspend
failure and so PM_TRACE isn't useful at all, but thought that
nonetheless this could be useful in the future.

Basically, to support PM_TRACE, you add a Kconfig option that
selects PM_TRACE and provides the infrastructure as per the
help text of PM_TRACE.
