block_device_operations->release() should return void

2013-05-07T06:16:21+00:00

The value passed is 0 in all but "it can never happen" cases (and those
only in a couple of drivers) *and* it would've been lost on the way
out anyway, even if something tried to pass something meaningful.
Just don't bother.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2013-05-02T00:51:54+00:00

Pull VFS updates from Al Viro,

Misc cleanups all over the place, mainly wrt /proc interfaces (switch
create_proc_entry to proc_create(), get rid of the deprecated
create_proc_read_entry() in favor of using proc_create_data() and
seq_file etc).

7kloc removed.

proc: Add proc_mkdir_data()

2013-05-01T21:29:41+00:00

Add proc_mkdir_data() to allow procfs directories to be created that are
annotated at the time of creation with private data rather than doing this
post-creation.  This means no access is then required to the proc_dir_entry
struct to set this.

i2o: check copy_from_user() size parameter

2013-05-01T00:04:04+00:00

Limit the size of the copy so we don't corrupt memory.  Hopefully this
can only be called by root, but fixing this makes the static checkers
happier.

procfs: new helper - PDE_DATA(inode)

2013-04-09T18:13:32+00:00

The only part of proc_dir_entry the code outside of fs/proc
really cares about is PDE(inode)->data.  Provide a helper
for that; static inline for now, eventually will be moved
to fs/proc, along with the knowledge of struct proc_dir_entry
layout.

Drivers: message: remove __dev* attributes.

2013-01-03T23:57:14+00:00

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
and __devexit from these drivers.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

drivers/message/i2o/i2o_config.c: bound allocation

2012-07-31T00:25:17+00:00

Fix a case where users can try to allocate arbitarily large amounts of
memory. 64K is overkill for a config request so apply an upper bound.
