device create: misc: convert device_create_drvdata to device_create

2008-10-16T16:24:43Z

Now that device_create() has been audited, rename things back to the original call to be sane. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

x86: cpuid: correct return value on partial operations

2008-08-26T00:46:12Z

Return the correct return value when the CPUID driver partially completes a request (we should return the number of bytes actually read or written, instead of the error code.) Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin

x86: cpuid: propagate error from smp_call_function_single()

2008-08-26T00:45:48Z

Propagate error (-ENXIO) from smp_call_function_single() in the CPUID driver. This can happen when a CPU is unplugged while the CPUID driver is open. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin

arch/x86/kernel/cpuid.c: removed duplicated #include

Removed duplicated include file in arch/x86/kernel/cpuid.c. Signed-off-by: Huang Weiyi Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

device create: x86: convert device_create to device_create_drvdata

2008-07-22T04:54:46Z

device_create() is race-prone, so use the race-free device_create_drvdata() instead as device_create() is going away. Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: H. Peter Anvin Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

smp_call_function: get rid of the unused nonatomic/retry argument

2008-06-26T09:24:35Z

It's never used and the comments refer to nonatomic and retry interchangably. So get rid of it. Acked-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

x86: cdev lock_kernel() pushdown

Push the cdev lock_kernel() call down into the x86 msr and cpuid drivers. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

PM: Remove destroy_suspended_device()

2008-04-20T02:10:28Z

After 2.6.24 there was a plan to make the PM core acquire all device semaphores during a suspend/hibernation to protect itself from concurrent operations involving device objects. That proved to be too heavy-handed and we found a better way to achieve the goal, but before it happened, we had introduced the functions device_pm_schedule_removal() and destroy_suspended_device() to allow drivers to "safely" destroy a suspended device and we had adapted some drivers to use them. Now that these functions are no longer necessary, it seems reasonable to remove them and modify their users to use the normal device unregistration instead. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
