In particular, allow over-large read- or write-requests to be downgraded
to a more reasonable range, rather than considering them outright errors.
We want to protect lower layers from (the sadly all too common) overflow
conditions, but prefer to do so by chopping the requests up, rather than
just refusing them outright.

Recent udev versions don't longer cover bad sysfs timing with built-in
logic. Explicit rules are required to do that. For net devices, the
following is needed:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", WAIT_FOR_SYSFS="address"
to handle access to net device properties from an event handler without
races.
This patch changes the main net attributes to be created by the driver
core, which is done _before_ the event is sent out and will not require
the stat() loop of the WAIT_FOR_SYSFS key.

Block devices need to add the block device name to the symlink they put
in the device directory, otherwise multiple symlinks of the same name
can be created. This matches the class system, which works the same
way, we just forgot to convert block at the same time.

Here's the patch for modalias support for input classes. It uses
comma-separated numbers, and doesn't describe all the potential keys (no
module currently cares, and that would make the strings huge). The
changes to input.h are to move the definitions needed by file2alias
outside __KERNEL__. I chose not to move those definitions to
mod_devicetable.h, because there are so many that it might break compile
of something else in the kernel.
The rest is fairly straightforward.

IDE: MODALIAS support for autoloading of ide-cd, ide-disk, ...
Add MODULE_ALIAS to IDE midlayer modules: ide-disk, ide-cd, ide-floppy and
ide-tape, to autoload these modules depending on the probed media type of
the IDE device.
It is used by udev and replaces the former agent shell script of the hotplug
package, which was required to lookup the media type in the proc filesystem.
Using proc was racy, cause the media file is created after the hotplug event
is sent out.
The module autoloading does not take any effect, until something like the
following udev rule is configured:
SUBSYSTEM=="ide", ACTION=="add", ENV{MODALIAS}=="?*", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe $env{MODALIAS}"
The module ide-scsi will not be autoloaded, cause it requires manual
configuration. It can't be, and never was supported for automatic setup in
the hotplug package. Adding a MODULE_ALIAS to ide-scsi for all supported
media types, would just lead to a default blacklist entry anyway.
$ modinfo ide-disk

There are cases in which a device's memory mapped registers overlap
with another device's memory mapped registers. On several PowerPC
devices this occurs for the MDIO bus, whose registers tended to overlap
with one of the ethernet controllers.
By switching from request_resource to insert_resource we can register
the MDIO bus as a proper platform device and not hack around how we
handle its memory mapped registers.

The klist reference counting in the find functions that use
klist_iter_init_node is broken. If the function (for example
driver_find_device) is called with a NULL start object then everything is
fine, the first call to next_device()/klist_next increases the ref-count of
the first node on the list and does nothing for the start object which is
NULL.
If they are called with a valid start object then klist_next will decrement
the ref-count for the start object but nobody has incremented it. Logical
place to fix this would be klist_iter_init_node because the function puts a
reference of the object into the klist_iter struct.

This patch (as604) makes the driver core hold a device's parent's lock
as well as the device's lock during calls to the probe and remove
methods in a driver. This facility is needed by USB device drivers,
owing to the peculiar way USB devices work:
A device provides multiple interfaces, and drivers are bound
to interfaces rather than to devices;
Nevertheless a reset, reset-configuration, suspend, or resume
affects the entire device and requires the caller to hold the
lock for the device, not just a lock for one of the interfaces.
Since a USB driver's probe method is always called with the interface
lock held, the locking order rules (always lock parent before child)
prevent these methods from acquiring the device lock. The solution
provided here is to call all probe and remove methods, for all devices
(not just USB), with the parent lock already acquired.
Although currently only the USB subsystem requires these changes, people
have mentioned in prior discussion that the overhead of acquiring an
extra semaphore in all the prove/remove sequences is not overly large.
Up to now, the USB core has been using its own set of private
semaphores. A followup patch will remove them, relying entirely on the
device semaphores provided by the driver core.
The code paths affected by this patch are:
device_add and device_del: The USB core already holds the parent
lock, so no actual change is needed.
driver_register and driver_unregister: The driver core will now
lock both the parent and the device before probing or removing.
driver_bind and driver_unbind (in sysfs): These routines will
now lock both the parent and the device before binding or
unbinding.
bus_rescan_devices: The helper routine will lock the parent
before probing a device.
I have not tested this patch for conflicts with other subsystems. As
far as I can see, the only possibility of conflict would lie in the
bus_rescan_devices pathway, and it seems pretty remote. Nevertheless,
it would be good for this to get a lot of testing in -mm.

The distinction between hotplug and uevent does not make sense these
days, netlink events are the default.
udev depends entirely on netlink uevents. Only during early boot and
in initramfs, /sbin/hotplug is needed. So merge the two functions and
provide only one interface without all the options.
The netlink layer got a nice generic interface with named slots
recently, which is probably a better facility to plug events for
subsystem specific events.
Also the new poll() interface to /proc/mounts is a nicer way to
notify about changes than sending events through the core.
The uevents should only be used for driver core related requests to
userspace now.

The names of these events have been confusing from the beginning
on, as they have been more like claim/release events. We needed these
events for noticing HAL if storage devices have been mounted.
Thanks to Al, we have the proper solution now and can poll()
/proc/mounts instead to get notfied about mount tree changes.

This deprecates the /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug file, as all
this stuff should be in /sys some day, right? :)
In /sys/kernel/ we have now uevent_seqnum and uevent_helper.
The seqnum is no longer used by udev, as the version for this
kernel depends on netlink which events will never get
out-of-order.
Recent udev versions disable the /sbin/hotplug helper with
an init script, cause it leads to OOM on big boxes by running
hundreds of shells in parallel. It should be done now by:
echo "" > /sys/kernel/uevent_helper
(Note that "-n" does not work, cause neighter proc nor sysfs
support truncate().)

These days we use udev to manage all kernel events. /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
will usually be disabled by an init-script. pnpnbios is not integrated with
the driver core and should stay away from the now disabled /sbin/hotplug.
Set the helper to /sbin/phpbios, even when there is probably no current
user of this faciliy. If it's needed, it should definitely get proper driver
core integration instead of forking binaries from the kernel.

From: David Woodhouse <dwmw2>
David has a G5 with a printer. I am quite surprised that nobody else noticed
this before. Linus has a G5. Hackers hate printing in general, maybe.
We do not use BKL anymore, because one of code paths had a sleeping call,
so we had to use a semaphore. I am sure it's safe to use unlocked_ioctl.
The new ioctls return long and retval is int. It looks completely fine to me.
We never want these extra bits, and the sign extension ought to work right.

Noticed that my zd1201 adapter isn't "seen" by hal and NetworkManager.
The problem seems to be that unlike other network device drivers I
checked, zd1201 does not do a SET_NETDEV_DEV(), which makes it so a
"device" symlink is created under /sys/class/net/wlan0.
With the following patch the device symlink shows up, and now I am
happily using NetworkManager to control the adapter:
$ ls -l /sys/class/net/wlan0

Fedora users complain that passing "nousbstorage" to the installer causes
the rest of the USB support to disappear. The installer uses kernel command
line as a way to pass options through Syslinux. The problem stems from the
use of strncmp() in obsolete_checksetup().
I used __module_param_call() instead of module_param because I wanted to
preserve the old syntax in grub.conf, and it's the only macro which allows
to remove the prefix.
The fix is tested to accept the option "nousb" correctly now.
