  • Revamp the qdio performance statistics and move them from procfs to
    debugfs using the seq_file interface. Since the statistics are not
    intended for the general user the removal of /proc/qdio_perf should
    not surprise anyone.

    The per device statistics are disabled by default, writing 1 to
    //qdio//statistics enables the
    statistics for the given device.

  • Makes use of skip_spaces() defined in lib/string.c for removing leading
    spaces from strings all over the tree.

    It decreases lib.a code size by 47 bytes and reuses the function tree-wide:
    text data bss dec hex filename
    64688 584 592 65864 10148 (TOTALS-BEFORE)
    64641 584 592 65817 10119 (TOTALS-AFTER)

    Also, while at it, if we see (*str && isspace(*str)), we can be sure to
    remove the first condition (*str) as the second one (isspace(*str)) also
    evaluates to 0 whenever *str == 0, making it redundant. In other words,
    "a char equals zero is never a space".

    Julia Lawall tried the semantic patch (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr) below,
    and found occurrences of this pattern on 3 more files:
    drivers/leds/led-class.c
    drivers/leds/ledtrig-timer.c
    drivers/video/output.c

    @@
    expression str;
    @@

    ( // ignore skip_spaces cases
    while (*str && isspace(*str)) { \(str++;\|++str;\) }
    |
    - *str &&
    isspace(*str)
    )
