lib/uuid.c: use correct offset in uuid parser

2016-05-30T22:26:57+00:00

Use '+ 0' and '+ 1' as offsets, like they were intended, instead of
adding to the result.

lib/uuid.c: remove FSF address

2016-05-21T00:58:30+00:00

There is no point in keeping an address in the file since it's subject
to change.

While here, update Intel Copyright years.

lib/uuid.c: introduce a few more generic helpers

2016-05-21T00:58:30+00:00

There are new helpers in this patch:

  uuid_is_valid		checks if a UUID is valid
  uuid_be_to_bin	converts from string to binary (big endian)
  uuid_le_to_bin	converts from string to binary (little endian)

They will be used in future, i.e. in the following patches in the series.

This also moves the indices arrays to lib/uuid.c to be shared accross
modules.

lib: reduce the use of module.h wherever possible

2012-03-07T20:04:04+00:00

For files only using THIS_MODULE and/or EXPORT_SYMBOL, map
them onto including export.h -- or if the file isn't even
using those, then just delete the include.  Fix up any implicit
include dependencies that were being masked by module.h along
the way.

Unified UUID/GUID definition

2010-05-20T02:40:47+00:00

There are many different UUID/GUID definitions in kernel, such as that
in EFI, many file systems, some drivers, etc. Every kernel components
need UUID/GUID has its own definition. This patch provides a unified
definition for UUID/GUID.

UUID is defined via typedef. This makes that UUID appears more like a
preliminary type, and makes the data type explicit (comparing with
implicit "u8 uuid[16]").

The binary representation of UUID/GUID can be little-endian (used by
EFI, etc) or big-endian (defined by RFC4122), so both is defined.
