No one should directly access the driver_data field, so remove the field
and make it private. We dynamically create the private field now if it
is needed, to handle drivers that call get/set before they are
registered with the driver core.
Also update the copyright notices on these files while we are there.

Introduce a core framework for run-time power management of I/O
devices. Add device run-time PM fields to 'struct dev_pm_info'
and device run-time PM callbacks to 'struct dev_pm_ops'. Introduce
a run-time PM workqueue and define some device run-time PM helper
functions at the core level. Document all these things.
Special thanks to Alan Stern for his help with the design and
multiple detailed reviews of the pereceding versions of this patch
and to Magnus Damm for testing feedback.

This patch adds a new bus notifier event which is emitted _after_ a
device is removed from its driver. This event will be used by the
dma-api debug code to check if a driver has released all dma allocations
for that device.

There is currently only one way for userspace to say "wait for my storage
device to get ready for the modules I just loaded": to load the
scsi_wait_scan module. Expectations of userspace are that once this
module is loaded, all the (storage) devices for which the drivers
were loaded before the module load are present.
Now, there are some issues with the implementation, and the async
stuff got caught in the middle of this: The existing code only
waits for the scsy async probing to finish, but it did not take
into account at all that probing might not have begun yet.
(Russell ran into this problem on his computer and the fix works for him)
This patch fixes this more thoroughly than the previous "fix", which
had some bad side effects (namely, for kernel code that wanted to wait for
the scsi scan it would also do an async sync, which would deadlock if you did
it from async context already.. there's a report about that on lkml):
The patch makes the module first wait for all device driver probes, and then it
will wait for the scsi parallel scan to finish.

This patch removes 100ms polling for driver_probe_done in
wait_for_device_probe(), and uses wait_event() instead.
Removing polling in fs initialization may lead to
a faster boot.
This patch also changes the return type of wait_for_device_done()
from int to void.
This patch is against Arjan's patch in linux-next tree.

This patch moves bus->match out from driver_probe_device and
does not hold device lock to check the match between a device
and a driver.
The idea has been verified by the commit 6cd4958609,
which leads to a faster boot. But the commit 6cd4958609 has
the following drawbacks: 1),only does the quick check in
the path of __driver_attach->driver_probe_device, not in other
paths; 2),for a matched device and driver, check the same match
twice. It is a waste of cpu ,especially for some drivers with long
device id table (eg. usb-storage driver).
This patch adds a helper of driver_match_device to check the match
in all paths, and testes the match only once.

This patch adds a quick check for the driver<->device match before
taking the locks and doin gthe expensive checks. Taking the lock hurts
in asynchronous boot context where the device lock gets hit; one of the
init functions takes the lock and goes to do an expensive hardware init;
the other init functions walk the same PCI list and get stuck on the
lock as a result.
For the common case, we can know there's no chance whatsoever of a match
if the device isn't in the drivers ID table... so this patch does that
check as a best-effort-avoid-the-lock approach.
Bootcharts for before and after can be seen at
http://www.fenrus.org/before.svghttp://www.fenrus.org/after.svg
Note the long time "agp_ali_init" takes in the first graph; my laptop
doesn't even have an ALI chip in it! (the bootgraphs look a bit
dissimilar, but that's the point, the first one has a bunch of arbitrary
delays in it that cause it to look very different)
This reduces my kernel boot time by about 20%

This patch (as1013) was suggested by David Woodhouse; it fixes a race
in the driver core. If a device is unregistered at the same time as
its driver is unloaded, the driver's code pages may be unmapped while
the remove method is still running. The calls to get_driver() and
put_driver() were intended to prevent this, but they don't work if the
driver's module count has already dropped to 0.
Instead, the patch keeps the device on the driver's list until after
the remove method has returned. This forces the necessary
synchronization to occur.

The driver core debugging messages are a mess. This provides a unified
message that makes them actually useful.
The format for new kobject debug messages should be:
driver/bus/class: 'OBJECT_NAME': FUNCTION_NAME: message.\n
Note, the class code is not changed in this patch due to pending patches
in my queue that this would conflict with. A later patch will clean
them up.

This patch removes the kobject, and a few other driver-core-only fields
out of struct driver and into the driver core only. Now drivers can be
safely create on the stack or statically (like they currently are.)

struct bus_type is static everywhere in the kernel. This moves the
kobject in the structure out of it, and a bunch of other private only to
the driver core fields are now moved to a private structure. This lets
us dynamically create the backing kobject properly and gives us the
chance to be able to document to users exactly how to use the struct
bus_type as there are no fields they can improperly access.
Thanks to Kay for the build fixes on this patch.
