  • In the future, we are going to be changing the lock type for struct
    device (once we get the lockdep infrastructure properly worked out) To
    make that changeover easier, and to possibly burry the lock in a
    different part of struct device, let's create some functions to lock and
    unlock a device so that no out-of-core code needs to be changed in the
    future.

    This patch creates the device_lock/unlock/trylock() functions, and
    converts all in-tree users to them.

  • Constify struct sysfs_ops.

    This is part of the ops structure constification
    effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

    Benefits of this constification:

    * prevents modification of data that is shared
    (referenced) by many other structure instances
    at runtime

    * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
    modification attempts on archs that enforce
    read-only kernel data at runtime

    * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
    can assume that the const data cannot be changed

    * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
    and therefore exclude them from false sharing

  • Passing the attribute to the low level IO functions allows all kinds
    of cleanups, by sharing low level IO code without requiring
    an own function for every piece of data.

    Also drivers can extend the attributes with own data fields
    and use that in the low level function.

    This makes the class attributes the same as sysdev_class attributes
    and plain attributes.

    This will allow further cleanups in drivers.

    Full tree sweep converting all users.

  • These parameters should be passed as cpu endian because we change it to
    little endian inside usb_control_msg(). On x86 cpu_to_le16() doesn't
    do anything so either way works but I think the original code would break
    on big endian systems.

    I removed the masks as well because that usb_control_msg() parameters
    are __u16 so we already only use the lower bits.

  • something-bility is spelled as something-blity
    so a grep for 'blit' would find these lines

    this is so trivial that I didn't split it by subsystem / copy
    additional maintainers - all changes are to comments
    The only purpose is to get fewer false positives when grepping
    around the kernel sources.

  • If a radio controller reset attempt occurs while a probe() or remove()
    is in progress it fails and is retried endlessly, potentially preventing
    the probe() or remove() from completing.

    If a reset fails, sleep for a bit before retrying the reset. This
    allows the probe()/remove() to complete.
