This patch (as1310) works around a race in dev_driver_string(). If
the device is unbound while the function is running, dev->driver might
become NULL after we test it and before we dereference it.

Add early_platform_init_buffer() support and update the
early platform driver code to allow passing parameters
to the driver on the kernel command line.
early_platform_init_buffer() simply allows early platform
drivers to provide a pointer and length to a memory area
where the remaining part of the kernel command line option
will be stored.
Needed to pass baud rate and other serial port options
to the reworked early serial console code on SuperH.

device_shutdown is defined to just shutdown the hardware and to not
clean up any kernel data structures. Therefore don't put the kobjects
for /sys/dev and /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char.
This ensures we don't remove /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char while
we still have symlinks from there to the actual devices.

Unfortunately, one cannot hold on to the struct firmware
that request_firmware_nowait() hands off, which is needed
in some cases. Allow this by requiring the callback to
free it (via release_firmware).
Additionally, give it a gfp_t parameter -- all the current
users call it from a GFP_KERNEL context so the GFP_ATOMIC
isn't necessary. This also marks an API break which is
useful in a sense, although that is obviously not the
primary purpose of this change.

The runtime PM core code assumes that dev->power.timer_expires is
nonzero when the timer is scheduled, but it may become zero
incidentally in pm_schedule_suspend(). Prevent this from happening
by bumping dev->power.timer_expires up to 1 if it's 0 before calling
mod_timer().

This patch (as1307) adds a small optimization to
__pm_request_resume(). If the device is currently being suspended,
there's no need to queue a work routine to resume it. Setting the
deferred_resume flag will suffice. (There's also a minor improvement
to the function's code layout: An unnecessary "else" is removed.)
Also, the patch clarifies the usage of the deferred_resume flag. It
is meaningful only while a suspend is in progress, so it should be
cleared just before a suspend starts, not just after one ends.

This patch (as1305) fixes a bug in the irq-enable settings and removes
some related overhead in the runtime PM code.
In __pm_runtime_resume(), within the scope of the original
spin_lock_irq(), we know that irqs are disabled. There's no
reason to go through a pair of enable/disable cycles when
acquiring and releasing the parent's lock.
In __pm_runtime_set_status(), irqs are already disabled when
the parent's lock is acquired, and they must remain disabled
when it is released.

Fixes the point where we need to complete the power transition when
device suspend fails, so that we don't print warnings about devices
added to the device hierarchy after a failing suspend.

Platform drivers registered via platform_driver_probe() can be bound
to devices only once, upon registration, because discard their probe()
routines to save memory. Unbinding the driver through sysfs 'unbind'
leaves the device stranded and confuses users so let's not create
bind and unbind attributes for such drivers.

Recently we encountered OOM problems due to memory use of the GEM cache.
Generally a large amuont of Shmem/Tmpfs pages tend to create a memory
shortage problem.
We often use the following calculation to determine the amount of shmem
pages:
shmem = NR_ACTIVE_ANON + NR_INACTIVE_ANON - NR_ANON_PAGES
however the expression does not consider isolated and mlocked pages.
This patch adds explicit accounting for pages used by shmem and tmpfs.

This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions
for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero,
random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows
non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no
other userspace process applies the expected permissions.
This also fixes a wrong assignment in pktcdvd and a checkpatch.pl complain.
