  • i2c-algo-bit: Discard the mdelay data struct member

    The i2c_algo_bit_data structure has an mdelay member, which is not
    used by the algorithm code (the code has always been ifdef'd out.)
    Let's discard it to save some code and memory.

  • - Move capable() from sched.h to capability.h;

    - Use where capable() is used
    (in include/, block/, ipc/, kernel/, a few drivers/,
    mm/, security/, & sound/;
    many more drivers/ to go)

  • Now that i2c_add_driver() doesn't need the module owner to be set by
    hand, we can delete it from the drivers. This patch catches all of the
    drivers that I found in the current tree (if a driver sets the .owner by
    hand, it's not a problem, just not needed.)

  • We should use the i2c_driver.driver's .name and .owner fields
    instead of the i2c_driver's ones.

    This patch updates the drivers for acorn arch.

  • Just about every i2c chip driver sets the I2C_DF_NOTIFY flag, so we
    can simply make it the default and drop the flag. If any driver really
    doesn't want to be notified when i2c adapters are added, that driver
    can simply omit to set .attach_adapter. This approach is also more
    robust as it prevents accidental NULL pointer dereferences.

  • Some months ago, you killed the address ranges mechanism from all
    sensors i2c chip drivers (both the module parameters and the in-code
    address lists). I think it was a very good move, as the ranges can
    easily be replaced by individual addresses, and this allowed for
    significant cleanups in the i2c core (let alone the impressive size
    shrink for all these drivers).

    Unfortunately you did not do the same for non-sensors i2c chip drivers.
    These need the address ranges even less, so we could get rid of the
    ranges here as well for another significant i2c core cleanup. Here comes
    a patch which does just that. Since the process is exactly the same as
    what you did for the other drivers set already, I did not split this one
    in parts.

    A documentation update is included.

    The change saves 308 bytes in the i2c core, and an average 1382 bytes
    for chip drivers which use I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD, 126 bytes for those which
    do not.

    This change is required if we want to merge the sensors and non-sensors
    i2c code (and we want to do this).

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
