Driver core: change sysdev classes to use dynamic kobject names

2008-01-25T04:40:40+00:00

All kobjects require a dynamically allocated name now. We no longer
need to keep track if the name is statically assigned, we can just
unconditionally free() all kobject names on cleanup.

Kobject: remove kobject_unregister() as no one uses it anymore

2008-01-25T04:40:40+00:00

There are no in-kernel users of kobject_unregister() so it should be
removed.

Kobject: convert remaining kobject_unregister() to kobject_put()

2008-01-25T04:40:40+00:00

There is no need for kobject_unregister() anymore, thanks to Kay's
kobject cleanup changes, so replace all instances of it with
kobject_put().

Kobject: auto-cleanup on final unref

2008-01-25T04:40:39+00:00

We save the current state in the object itself, so we can do proper
cleanup when the last reference is dropped.

If the initial reference is dropped, the object will be removed from
sysfs if needed, if an "add" event was sent, "remove" will be send, and
the allocated resources are released.

This allows us to clean up some driver core usage as well as allowing us
to do other such changes to the rest of the kernel.

Kset: remove kset_add function

2008-01-25T04:40:39+00:00

No one is calling this anymore, so just remove it and hard-code the one
internal-use of it.

Kobject: remove kobject_register()

2008-01-25T04:40:39+00:00

The function is no longer used by anyone in the kernel, and it prevents
the proper sending of the kobject uevent after the needed files are set
up by the caller.  kobject_init_and_add() can be used in its place.

Kobject: rename kobject_init_ng() to kobject_init()

2008-01-25T04:40:38+00:00

Now that the old kobject_init() function is gone, rename
kobject_init_ng() to kobject_init() to clean up the namespace.

Kobject: remove kobject_init() as no one uses it anymore

2008-01-25T04:40:38+00:00

The old kobject_init() function is on longer in use, so let us remove it
from the public scope (kset mess in the kobject.c file still uses it,
but that can be cleaned up later very simply.)
