In case of failure, device_create() returns not NULL but the error code.
The current code checks for non-NULL though which causes kernel oops in
sysfs_create_group() when device_create() fails.  Check for error using
IS_ERR() and propagate the error value using PTR_ERR() instead of fixed
-ENODEV code returned now...

<title>gpiolib: allow poll() on value</title>

<content type='text'>
Many gpio chips allow to generate interrupts when the value of a pin
changes.  This patch gives usermode application the opportunity to make
use of this feature by calling poll(2) on the /sys/class/gpio/gpioN/value
sysfs file.  The edge to trigger can be set in the edge file in the same
directory.  Possible values are "none", "rising", "falling", and "both".

Using level triggers is not possible with current sysfs since nothing
changes the GPIO value (and the IRQ keeps triggering).  Edge triggering
will "just work".  Note that if there was an event between read() and
poll(), the poll() returns immediately.

Also note that this version only supports true GPIO interrupts.  Some
later patch might be able to synthesize this behavior by timer-driven
polling; some systems seem to need that.

<title>gpiolib: allow exported GPIO nodes to be named using sysfs links</title>

Commit 926b663ce8215ba448960e1ff6e58b67a2c3b99b (gpiolib: allow GPIOs to
be named) already provides naming on the chip level. This patch provides
more flexibility by allowing multiple names where ever in sysfs on a per
GPIO basis.

We want to phase out the GPIO "autorequest" mechanism in gpiolib and
require all callers to use gpio_request().

 - Update feature-removal-schedule
 - Update the documentation now
 - Convert the relevant pr_warning() in gpiolib to a WARN()
   so folk using this mechanism get a noisy stack dump

Some drivers and board init code will probably need to change.
Implementations not using gpiolib will still be fine; they are already
required to implement gpio_{request,free}() stubs.

Allow GPIOs in GPIOLIB chips to be named.  This name is then used when the
GPIO is exported to sysfs, although it could be used elsewhere if deemed
useful.

There are already various drivers having bigger label than 12 bytes.  Most
of them fit well under 20 bytes but make column width exact so that
oversized labels don't mess up output alignment.

This merges branches irq/genirq, irq/sparseirq-v4, timers/hpet-percpu
and x86/uv.

The sparseirq branch is just preliminary groundwork: no sparse IRQs are
actually implemented by this tree anymore - just the new APIs are added
while keeping the old way intact as well (the new APIs map 1:1 to
irq_desc[]).  The 'real' sparse IRQ support will then be a relatively
small patch ontop of this - with a v2.6.29 merge target.

  genirq: improve include files

  io_apic: make irq_mis_count available on 64-bit too
  genirq: fix name space collisions of nr_irqs in arch/*
  genirq: fix name space collision of nr_irqs in autoprobe.c
