cdev: remove unneeded setting of cdev names

2007-10-12T21:51:02Z

struct cdev does not need the kobject name to be set, as it is never used. This patch fixes up the few places it is set. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Acked-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

V4L/DVB (6079): Cleanup: remove linux/moduleparam.h from drivers/media files

2007-10-10T01:06:17Z

Since at least kernel 2.6.12-rc2, module.h includes moduleparm.h. This patch removes all occurences of moduleparm.h from drivers/media files. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

V4L/DVB (6015): DVB: convert struct class_device to struct device

2007-10-10T01:05:11Z

The currently used "struct class_device" will be removed from the kernel. Here is a trivial patch that converts DVB to use struct device. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Michael Krufky Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

V4L/DVB (5631): Dvb-core: Add level fixes to printk()s, plus spelling/grammer

2007-07-18T17:23:12Z

All the printks had missing level prefixes so I've fixed these too. Also fixed some grammer errors. Signed-off-by: Simon Arlott Signed-off-by: Trent Piepho Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

V4L/DVB (5630): Dvb-core: Handle failures to create devices

2007-05-22T19:00:14Z

dvb-core is not started early enough when device drivers that use dvb are compiled in so dvb_register_device fails (silently) since dvb_class is NULL, this runs dvb_init using subsys_initcall instead of module_init. dvb_register_device will now check the return value of class_device_create.

V4L/DVB (5400): Core: fix several locking related problems

2007-03-27T11:45:54Z

Fix several instances of dvb-core functions using mutex_lock_interruptible and returning -ERESTARTSYS where the calling function will either never retry or never check the return value. These cause a race condition with dvb_dmxdev_filter_free and dvb_dvr_release, both of which are filesystem release functions whose return value is ignored and will never be retried. When this happens it becomes impossible to open dvr0 again (-EBUSY) since it has not been released properly.

V4L/DVB (5244): Dvbdev: fix illegal re-usage of fileoperations struct

2007-02-21T15:35:31Z

Arjan van de Ven reported an illegal re-usage of the fileoperations struct if more than one dvb device (e.g. frontend) is present. This patch fixes this issue. It allocates a new fileoperations struct each time a device is registered and copies the default template fileops. Signed-off-by: Marcel Siegert Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h

2007-02-14T16:09:54Z

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).
