  • locking init cleanups:

    - convert " = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED" to spin_lock_init() or DEFINE_SPINLOCK()
    - convert rwlocks in a similar manner

    this patch was generated automatically.

    Motivation:

    - cleanliness
    - lockdep needs control of lock initialization, which the open-coded
    variants do not give
    - it's also useful for -rt and for lock debugging in general

  • Adds a RapidIO subsystem to the kernel. RIO is a switched fabric interconnect
    used in higher-end embedded applications. The curious can look at the specs
    over at http://www.rapidio.org

    The core code implements enumeration/discovery, management of
    devices/resources, and interfaces for RIO drivers.

    There's a lot more to do to take advantages of all the hardware features.
    However, this should provide a good base for folks with RIO hardware to start
    contributing.
