Recent modprobe and udev versions allow to create device nodes
for modules which are not loaded. Only the first access will cause
the in-kernel module loader to pull-in the module. Systems which
never access the device node will not needlessly load the module,
and no longer need init scripts or other facilities to unconditionally
load it.

xen: Do not suspend IPI IRQs.
powerpc: Use IRQF_NO_SUSPEND not IRQF_TIMER for non-timer interrupts

of_device is just an alias for platform_device, so remove it entirely. Also
replace to_of_device() with to_platform_device() and update comment blocks.
This patch was initially generated from the following semantic patch, and then
edited by hand to pick up the bits that coccinelle didn't catch.

Change all call sites in drivers/input to not access the ABS axis
information directly anymore. Make them use the access helpers instead.
Also use input_set_abs_params() when possible.
Did some code refactoring as I was on it.

Both of_bus_type and of_platform_bus_type are just #define aliases
for the platform bus. This patch removes all references to them and
switches to the of_register_platform_driver()/of_unregister_platform_driver()
API for registering.
Subsequent patches will convert each user of of_register_platform_driver()
into plain platform_drivers without the of_platform_driver shim. At which
point the of_register_platform_driver()/of_unregister_platform_driver()
functions can be removed.

These are a couple smatch issues. In the original code, if only one of
the allocation fails we leak the other variable so we should goto
out_free_mem.
Also there was a use after free if debugging was enabled and so I moved
the kfree() down a line.

The owner field provides the link between drivers and modules in sysfs.
After setting the owner field, we can see which module provides which
driver and vice versa by looking at /sys/bus/acpi/drivers/Atlas ACPI/module
and /sys/module/atlas_btns/drivers/acpi:Atlas ACPI

Suspending and resuming the device should be separate from enabling
