device_create() is race-prone, so use the race-free
device_create_drvdata() instead as device_create() is going away.

Why?:
There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs
attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the
device or the path. For example what is the sysfs path for
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK? With this change a call to
stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that
/sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc.
What are the alternatives?:
1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce
the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this
seems counter productive.
2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a
udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited
environment like an initramfs.
3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

Fix pointer/int cast in USB devio code, and thus avoid a compiler warning.
A void* data argument passed to bus_find_device() and thence to match_devt()
is used to carry a 32-bit datum. However, casting directly between a u32 and
a pointer is not permitted - there must be an intermediate cast via (unsigned)
long.
This was introduced by the following patch:

usbfs: simplify the lookup-by-minor routines
This patch (as1105) simplifies the lookup-by-minor-number code in
usbfs. Instead of passing the minor number to the callback, which
must then reconstruct the entire dev_t value, the patch passes the
dev_t value directly.

This patch (as1107) fixes a small bug in the usbfs registration and
unregistration code. It avoids leaving an error value stored in the
device's usb_classdev field and it avoids trying to unregister a NULL
pointer. (It also fixes a rather extreme overuse of whitespace.)

This patch (as1106) fixes a race between opening and unregistering
device files in usbfs. The current code drops its reference to the
device and then reacquires it, ignoring the possibility that the
device structure might have been removed in the meantime. It also
doesn't check whether the device is already in the NOTATTACHED state
when the file is opened.

USB device files are accessible in two ways: as files in usbfs and as
character device nodes. The two paths are supposed to behave
identically, but they don't. When the underlying USB device is
unplugged, disconnect signals are sent to processes with open usbfs
files (if they requested these signals) but not to processes with open
device node files.
This patch (as1104) fixes the bug by moving the disconnect-signalling
code into a common subroutine which is called from both paths.
Putting this subroutine in devio.c removes the only out-of-file
reference to struct dev_state, and so the structure's declaration can
be moved from usb.h into devio.c.
Finally, the new subroutine performs one extra action: It kills all
the outstanding async URBs. (I'd kill the outstanding synchronous
URBs too, if there was any way to do it.) In the past this hasn't
mattered much, because devices were unregistered from usbfs only
when they were disconnected. But now the unregistration can also
occur whenever devices are unbound from the usb_generic driver. At
any rate, killing URBs when a device is unregistered from usbfs seems
like a good thing to do.

This patch renames the existing usb_reset_device in hub.c to
usb_reset_and_verify_device and renames the existing
usb_reset_composite_device to usb_reset_device. Also the new
usb_reset_and_verify_device does't need to be EXPORTED .
The idea of the patch is that external interface driver
should warn the other interfaces' driver of the same
device before and after reseting the usb device. One interface
driver shoud call _old_ usb_reset_composite_device instead of
_old_ usb_reset_device since it can't assume the device contains
only one interface. The _old_ usb_reset_composite_device
is safe for single interface device also. we rename the two
functions to make the change easily.
This patch is under guideline from Alan Stern.

From the current implementation of usb_reset_composite_device
function, the iface parameter is no longer useful. This function
doesn't do something special for the iface usb_interface,compared
with other interfaces in the usb_device. So remove the parameter
and fix the related caller.

This patch (as1079) cleans up the way URB_* flags are exported in
usbfs.
The URB_NO_INTERRUPT flag is now exported (this is the
only behavioral change).
USBDEVFS_URB_* macros are added for URB_NO_FSBR,
URB_ZERO_PACKET, and URB_NO_INTERRUPT, making explicit the
fact that the kernel accepts them.
The flag matching takes into account that the URB_* values
may change as the kernel evolves, whereas the USBDEVFS_URB_*
values must remain fixed since they are a user API.

This patch (as1022b) adds stub methods for suspend and resume to the
usbfs driver. There isn't much they can do since there's no way to
inform a user task about the events. But it's important to have the
stubs, because an upcoming change to usbcore will automatically unbind
drivers that don't have those methods when a suspend occurs.

The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in
the kernel.
The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

This patch (as948) removes most of the references to urb->pipe from
the usbfs routines in devio.c. The one tricky aspect is in
snoop_urb(), which can be called before the URB is submitted and which
uses usb_urb_dir_in(). For this to work properly, the URB's direction
flag must be set manually in proc_do_submiturb().
The patch also fixes a minor bug; the wValue, wIndex, and wLength
fields were snooped in proc_do_submiturb() without conversion from
le16 to CPU-byte-ordering.

o The "real" usb-devices export now a device node which can
populate /dev/bus/usb.
o The usb_device class is optional now and can be disabled in the
kernel config. Major/minor of the "real" devices and class devices
are the same.
o The environment of the usb-device event contains DEVNUM and BUSNUM to
help udev and get rid of the ugly udev rule we need for the class
devices.
o The usb-devices and usb-interfaces share the same bus, so I used
the new "struct device_type" to let these devices identify
themselves. This also removes the current logic of using a magic
platform-pointer.
The name of the device_type is also added to the environment
which makes it easier to distinguish the different kinds of devices
on the same subsystem.
It looks like this:
add@/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
ACTION=add
DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
SUBSYSTEM=usb
SEQNUM=1533
MAJOR=189
MINOR=131
DEVTYPE=usb_device
PRODUCT=46d/c03e/2000
TYPE=0/0/0
BUSNUM=002
DEVNUM=004
This udev rule works as a replacement for usb_device class devices:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", \
NAME="bus/usb/$env{BUSNUM}/$env{DEVNUM}", MODE="0644"
Updated patch, which needs the device_type patches in Greg's tree.
I also got a bugzilla assigned for this. :)
