Add new sysfs attributes.

1. Routing information required to to reach the RIO device:
destid - device destination ID (real for for endpoint, route for switch)
hopcount - hopcount for maintenance requests (switches only)

2. device linking information:
lprev - name of device that precedes the given device in the enumeration
        or discovery order (displayed along with of the port to which it
        is attached).
lnext - names of devices (with corresponding port numbers) that are
        attached to the given device as next in the enumeration or
        discovery order (switches only)

<content type='text'>
Convert RIO switches device structures (rio_dev + rio_switch) into a
single allocation unit.

This change is based on the fact that RIO switches are using common RIO
device objects anyway.  Allocating RIO switch objects as RIO devices with
added space for switch information simplifies handling of RIO switch
devices.

<title>sysfs: add parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in .read/.write methods for sysfs binary attributes</title>

<id>91a6902958f052358899f58683d44e36228d85c2</id>
<content type='text'>
Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either.

What I do:
Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the
.read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes.

In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and
include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work.
But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes
to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods.
I'm not sure if I missed any. :(

Why I do this:
For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the
struct attribute in the .show/.store method,
while we can't do this for the binary attributes.
I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not
so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones.
So I think this patch is reasonable. :)

Who benefits from it:
The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs
requires such an improvement.
All the table binary attributes share the same .read method.
Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get
the table signature and instance number which are used to
distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes.

Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods
for different ACPI table binary attributes.
This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different
platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

<content type='text'>
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-&gt;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.

merge things properly.)
