commit ff9c895f07d36193c75533bda8193bde8ca99d02 upstream.

This patch (as1368) fixes a rather obscure bug in usbmon: When tracing
URBs sent by the scatter-gather library, it accesses the data buffers
while they are still mapped for DMA.

The solution is to move the mapping and unmapping out of the s-g
library and into the usual place in hcd.c.  This requires the addition
of new URB flag bits to describe the kind of mapping needed, since we
have to call dma_map_sg() if the HCD supports native scatter-gather
operation and dma_map_page() if it doesn't.  The nice thing about
having the new flags is that they simplify the testing for unmapping.

The patch removes the only caller of usb_buffer_[un]map_sg(), so those
functions are #if'ed out.  A later patch will remove them entirely.

As a result of this change, urb-&gt;sg will be set in situations where
it wasn't set previously.  Hence the xhci and whci drivers are
adjusted to test urb-&gt;num_sgs instead, which retains its original
meaning and is nonzero only when the HCD has to handle a scatterlist.

Finally, even when a submission error occurs we don't want to hand
URBs to usbmon before they are unmapped.  The submission path is
rearranged so that map_urb_for_dma() is called only for non-root-hub
URBs and unmap_urb_for_dma() is called immediately after a submission
error.  This simplifies the error handling.

For more clearance what the functions actually do,

  usb_buffer_alloc() is renamed to usb_alloc_coherent()
  usb_buffer_free()  is renamed to usb_free_coherent()

They should only be used in code which really needs DMA coherency.

[added compatibility macros so we can convert things easier - gregkh]

<title>USB: Move hcd free_dev call into usb_disconnect to fix oops</title>

USB: Move hcd free_dev call into usb_disconnect

I found a way to oops the kernel:

1. Open a USB device through devio.
2. Remove the hcd module in the host kernel.
3. Close the devio file descriptor.

The problem is that closing the file descriptor does usb_release_dev
as it is the last reference.  usb_release_dev then tries to invoke
the hcd free_dev function (or rather dereferencing the hcd driver
struct).  This causes an oops as the hcd driver has already been
unloaded so the struct is gone.

This patch tries to fix this by bringing the free_dev call earlier
and into usb_disconnect.  I have verified that repeating the
above steps no longer crashes with this patch applied.

<title>USB: convert to the runtime PM framework</title>

<id>9bbdf1e0afe771ca7650f9f476769310bee9d8f3</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch (as1329) converts the USB stack over to the PM core's
runtime PM framework.  This involves numerous changes throughout
usbcore, especially to hub.c and driver.c.  Perhaps the most notable
change is that CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND now depends on CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME
instead of CONFIG_PM.

Several fields in the usb_device and usb_interface structures are no
longer needed.  Some code which used to depend on CONFIG_USB_PM now
depends on CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND (requiring some rearrangement of header
files).

The only visible change in behavior should be that following a system
sleep (resume from RAM or resume from hibernation), autosuspended USB
devices will be resumed just like everything else.  They won't remain
suspended.  But if they aren't in use then they will naturally
autosuspend again in a few seconds.

USB drivers that create character devices call usb_register_dev in their
probe function. This associates the usb_interface device with that minor
number and creates the character device and announces it to the world.
However, the driver's probe function is called before the new
usb_interface is added to the driver's klist_devices.

This is a problem because userspace will respond to the character device
creation announcement by opening the character device. The driver's open
function will the call usb_find_interface to find the usb_interface
associated with that minor number. usb_find_interface will walk the
driver's list of devices and find the usb_interface with the matching
minor number.

Because the announcement happens before the usb_interface is added to the
driver's klist_devices, a race condition exists. A straightforward fix
is to walk the list of devices on usb_bus_type instead since the device
is added to that list before the announcement occurs.

bus_find_device calls get_device to bump the reference count on the found
device. It is arguable that the reference count should be dropped by the
caller of usb_find_interface instead of usb_find_interface, however,
the current users of usb_find_interface do not expect this.

The original version of this patch only matched against minor number
instead of driver and minor number. This version matches against both.
