Allow gadget drivers to omit the unbind() method. When they're
statically linked, that's an appropriate memory saving tweak.
Similarly, provide consistent/simpler handling for a should-not-happen
error case: removing a peripheral controller driver when a gadget
driver is still loaded. Such code dates back to early versions of the
first implementation of the gadget API, and has never been triggered.
Includes relevant section annotation fixs for gmidi.c, file_storage.c,
and serial.c; we don't yet have an "init or exit" annotation. Also
some whitespace fixes in gmidi.c (space at EOL, before tabs, etc).

This patch (as823) makes net2280 avoid sending ZLPs for IN transfers
on ep0 until a response has been submitted, and avoids stalling when an
OUT packet is received before a request has been submitted for an OUT

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

As part of an SMP cleanliness pass over UML, I consted a bunch of
structures in order to not have to document their locking. One of these
structures was a struct tty_operations. In order to const it in UML
without introducing compiler complaints, the declaration of
tty_set_operations needs to be changed, and then all of its callers need to
be fixed.
This patch declares all struct tty_operations in the tree as const. In all
cases, they are static and used only as input to tty_set_operations. As an
extra check, I ran an i386 allyesconfig build which produced no extra
warnings.
53 drivers are affected. I checked the history of a bunch of them, and in
most cases, there have been only a handful of maintenance changes in the
last six months. serial_core.c was the busiest one that I looked at.

This updates the code handling dma-coherent buffer allocations, basically
reusing code from the musb_hdrc driver. Instead of trying to work around two
significant limitations of the dma framework (memory wastage for buffers
smaller than a page, and inconsistency between calling context requirements
for allocation and free) this just works around one of them (the latter).
So count this as two steps forward (bugfixes: the latter issue could cause
errors on some platforms, and some MIPS changes broke code for the former),
and one step back (increasing cross-platform memory wastage).
Plus linelength and whitespace fixes; and minor data segment shrinkage.

As part of the ongoing program to flatten out the HCD bus-glue layer,
this patch (as771b) eliminates the hcpriv, release, and kref fields
from struct usb_bus. hcpriv and release were not being used for
anything worthwhile, and kref has been moved into the enclosing
usb_hcd structure.
Along with those changes, the patch gets rid of usb_bus_get and
usb_bus_put, replacing them with usb_get_hcd and usb_put_hcd.
The one interesting aspect is that the dev_set_drvdata call was
removed from usb_put_hcd, where it clearly doesn't belong. This means
the driver private data won't get reset to NULL. It shouldn't cause
any problems, since the private data is undefined when no driver is

This updates the PXA 25x UDC board-independent infrastructure for VBUS sensing
and the D+ pullup. The original code evolved from rather bizarre support on
Intel's "Lubbock" reference hardware, so that on more sensible hardware it
doesn't work as well as it could/should.
The change is just to teach the UDC driver how to use built-in PXA GPIO pins
directly. This reduces the amount of board-specfic object code needed, and
enables the use of a VBUS sensing IRQ on boards (like Gumstix) that have one.
With VBUS sensing, the UDC is unclocked until a host is actually connected.

The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).
This patch:
The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.
