w1_process_callbacks() expects to be called with dev->list_mutex held,
but it is the fact only in w1_process(). __w1_remove_master_device()
calls w1_process_callbacks() after it releases list_mutex.
The patch fixes __w1_remove_master_device() to acquire list_mutex
for w1_process_callbacks().

__w1_attach_slave_device calls device_add which calls w1_bus_notify
which calls the w1_bq27000 slave driver, which calls
platform_device_add and device_add and deadlocks on getting
&(&priv->bus_notifier)->rwsem as it is still held in the previous
device_add. This avoids the problem by processing the family
add/remove outside of the slave device_add call.
Commit 47eba33a0997fc7362a introduced this deadlock and added
a KOBJ_ADD, as the add was already reported in device_register two add
events were being sent. This change suppresses the device_register
add so that any slave device sysfs entries are setup before the add
goes out.
Belisko Marek reported this change fixed the deadlock he was seeing on
ARM device tree, while testing on my x86-64 system never saw the
deadlock.

On 64 bit systems, a large value for "long tmp" is truncated when
assigning to "int md->max_slave_count" so we still end up with a value
less than one despite the "tmp < 1" check.
This is more of a problem for static checkers than a real life issue,
but it's simple enough to fix.

Introduce new commands to add, remove, and list slave devices through
the netlink interface. This can be useful to skip the search on a
static network. They could previously only be added or removed
through automatic search or sysfs, and this allows a program to only
use netlink.
Only allocate memory when needed, so move kzalloc into w1_get_slaves
where it was used.

w1_max_slave_count is only used to abort the search early
or take a fast search (when 1), so there isn't any reason to not allow
it to be updated through sysfs. Memory is not allocated based on
the current value and 10 is a rather low base number, increasing to
64, and printing a message the first time the count is reached and
there were more devices to discover to let the user know why not
all the devices were found.

Before 63706172f33 "rework kthread_stop()" kthread_should_stop()
always returned false when called from a non-kthread task, after it
would oops as a non-kthread didn't have that structure and netlink was
calling search from a thread which wasn't a kthread. 9d1817cab2f030
"w1: fix oops when w1_search is called from netlink connector",
modified the code to avoid calling kthread_stop from a netlink thread.
Introduce a w1_master flag and bit W1_ABORT_SEARCH to identify abort
to cleanly support both kthread and netlink search abort. A search
can take seconds to run, so it is important to abort early if the
hardware is removed in the middle of a search.

On architectures where long is more then 32 bits, modifying a 32-bit field
with set_bit (and other atomic bit operations) may cause bytes following
the field to by modified.
Because the endianness of the bits within a field is the native endianness
of the CPU[1], on big-endian machines, bit number zero is in the last byte
of the field.
Therefore, `set_bit(0, ptr)' on a 64-bit big-endian machine is roughly
equivalent to `((char *)ptr)[7] |= 1', and since w1 driver uses a 32-bit
field for holding the flags, this causes bytes beyond the field to be
modified.
[1] From Documentation/atomic_ops.txt:
Native atomic bit operations are defined to operate on objects
aligned to the size of an "unsigned long" C data type, and are
least of that size. The endianness of the bits within each
"unsigned long" are the native endianness of the cpu.

Good job. I was too lazy to bisect for bad commit;)
Reading the code I found problematic kthread_should_stop call from netlink
connector which causes the oops. After applying a patch, I've been testing
owfs+w1 setup for nearly two days and it seems to work very reliable (no
hangs, no memleaks etc).
More detailed description and possible fix is given below:
Function w1_search can be called from either kthread or netlink callback.
While the former works fine, the latter causes oops due to kthread_should_stop
invocation.
This patch adds a check if w1_search is serving netlink command, skipping
kthread_should_stop invocation if so.

The 'mutex' in struct w1_master is use for two very different
purposes.
Firstly it protects various data structures such as the list of all
slaves.
Secondly it protects the w1 buss against concurrent accesses.
This can lead to deadlocks when the ->probe code called while adding a
slave needs to talk on the bus, as is the case for power_supply
devices.
ds2780 and ds2781 drivers contain a work around to track which
process hold the lock simply to avoid this deadlock. bq27000 doesn't
have that work around and so deadlocks.
There are other possible deadlocks involving sysfs.
When removing a device the sysfs s_active lock is held, so the lock
that protects the slave list must take precedence over s_active.
However when access power_supply attributes via sysfs, the s_active
lock must take precedence over the lock that protects accesses to
the bus.
So to avoid deadlocks between w1 slaves and sysfs, these must be
two separate locks. Making them separate means that the work around
in ds2780 and ds2781 can be removed.
So this patch:
- adds a new mutex: "bus_mutex" which serialises access to the bus.
- takes in mutex in w1_search and ds1wm_search while they access
the bus for searching. The mutex is dropped before calling the
callback which adds the slave.
- changes all slaves to use bus_mutex instead of mutex to
protect access to the bus
- removes w1_ds2790_io_nolock and w1_ds2781_io_nolock, and the
related code from drivers/power/ds278[01]_battery.c which
calls them.

w1 devices need a mutex to serial IO. Most use master->mutex.
However that is used for other purposes and they can conflict.
In particular master->mutex is held while w1_attach_slave_device is
called.
For bq27000, this registers a 'powersupply' device which tries to read the
current status. The attempt to read will cause a deadlock on
master->mutex.
So create a new per-slave mutex and use that for serializing IO for
bq27000.

Add a strong pullup option to the w1 system. This supplies extra power
for parasite powered devices. There is a w1_master_pullup sysfs entry and
enable_pullup module parameter to enable or disable the strong pullup.
The one wire bus requires at a minimum one wire and ground. The common
wire is used for sending and receiving data as well as supplying power to
devices that are parasite powered of which temperature sensors can be one
example. The bus must be idle and left high while a temperature
conversion is in progress, in addition the normal pullup resister on
larger networks or even higher temperatures might not supply enough power.
The pullup resister can't provide too much pullup current, because
devices need to pull the bus down to write a value. This enables the
strong pullup for supported hardware, which can supply more current when
requested. Unsupported hardware will just delay with the bus high.
The hardware USB 2490 one wire bus master has a bit on some commands which
will enable the strong pullup as soon as the command finishes executing.
To use strong pullup, call the new w1_next_pullup function to register the
duration. The next write command will call set_pullup before sending the
data, and reset the duration to zero once it returns.

w1_control_thread was removed which would wake up every second and process
newly registered family codes and complete some final cleanup for a
removed master. Those routines were moved to the threads that were
previously requesting those operations. A new function
w1_reconnect_slaves takes care of reconnecting existing slave devices when
a new family code is registered or removed. The removal case was missing
and would cause a deadlock waiting for the family code reference count to
decrease, which will now happen. A problem with registering a family code
was fixed. A slave device would be unattached if it wasn't yet claimed,
then attached at the end of the list, two unclaimed slaves would cause an
infinite loop.
The struct w1_bus_master.search now takes a pointer to the struct
w1_master device to avoid searching for it, which would have caused a
lock ordering deadlock with the removal of w1_control_thread.

Transform some calls to kmalloc/memset to a single kzalloc (or kcalloc).
Here is a short excerpt of the semantic patch performing
this transformation:

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

sysfs binary attributes
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.
