We never actually use the return value of sfi_sysfs_install_table() but
it still seems wrong to return a freed pointer.Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter

Analogous to ACPI's /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/...
create /sys/firmware/sfi/tables/
The tables are primariy for the kernel,
but sometimes it is useful for user-space to be
able to read them.Signed-off-by: Feng Tang

There are 2 major changes from v0.81 to v0.7:
1. Consolidating the SPIB/I2CB tables into a new DEVS table,
which is more expandable and can support other bus types
than spi/i2c.
2. Creating a new GPIO table, which list all the GPIO pins
used in the platform.However, to avoid breaking current platforms who use SFI v0.7
version firmware, the definitions for SPIB/I2CB will still
be kept for a whileSigned-off-by: Feng Tang

sfi_verify_table() is called at runtime, and thus cannot be __init
Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven
Signed-off-by: Len Brown -
The function sfi_map_memory/sfi_unmap_memory uses
early_ioremap/early_iounmap respectively, which refers to a __init
function. And function sfi_check_table also refers to a __init function
sfi_verify_table. Since the references are valid, so use __ref to get rid
of the warnings.We were warned by the following warnings:
LD vmlinux.o
MODPOST vmlinux.o
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0xb6ba3a): Section mismatch in reference from
the function sfi_map_memory() to the function
.init.text:early_ioremap()
The function sfi_map_memory() references
the function __init early_ioremap().
This is often because sfi_map_memory lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of early_ioremap is wrong.WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0xb6bab6): Section mismatch in reference from

Extend SFI to access standard ACPI tables.
(eg. the PCI MCFG) using sfi_acpi_table_parse().Note that this is _not_ a hybrid ACPI + SFI mode.
The platform boots in either ACPI mode or SFI mode.SFI runs only with acpi_disabled=1, which can be set
at build-time via CONFIG_ACPI=n, or at boot time by
the failure to find ACPI platform support.So this extension simply allows SFI-platforms to
re-use existing standard table formats that happen to
be defined to live in ACPI envelopes.Signed-off-by: Feng Tang

drivers/sfi/sfi_core.c contains the generic SFI implementation.
It has a private header, sfi_core.h, for its own use and the

CONFIG_SFI=y enables the kernel to boot and run optimally
on platforms that support the Simple Firmware Interface.Thanks to Jacob Pan for prototyping the initial Linux SFI support,
and to Feng Tang for Linux bring-up and debug both in emulation
and on Moorestown hardware.See http://simplefirmware.org for more information on SFI.
