Since things that IPMI uses can be hot-swapped, the users and
interfaces really need to be able to handle this.
Add the functions so the users and interfaces can implement
them, the actual function will be added after everything is
ready.

Currently, ipmi_demagle_device_id requires a full response buffer in its
data argument. This means we can't use it to parse a response in a
struct ipmi_recv_msg, which has the netfn and cmd as separate bytes.
This change alters the definition and users of ipmi_demangle_device_id
to use a split netfn, cmd and data buffer, so it can be used with
non-sequential responses.

Fixed the ipmi_ssif.c and ipmi_si_intf.c changes to use data from the
response, not the data from the message, when passing info to the
ipmi_demangle_device_id() function.

When flushing queued messages in run-to-completion mode,
smi_event_handler() is recursively called.
flush_messages()
smi_event_handler()
handle_transaction_done()
deliver_recv_msg()
ipmi_smi_msg_received()
smi_recv_tasklet()
sender()
flush_messages()
smi_event_handler()
...
The depth of the recursive call depends on the number of queued
messages, so it can cause a stack overflow if many messages have
been queued.
To solve this problem, this patch removes flush_messages()
from sender()@ipmi_si_intf.c. Instead, add flush_messages() to
caller side of sender() if needed. Additionally, to implement this,
add new handler flush_messages to struct ipmi_smi_handlers.

The IPMI driver would wake up periodically looking for events and
watchdog pretimeouts. If there is nothing waiting for these events,
it's really kind of pointless to be checking for them. So modify the
driver so the message handler can pass down if it needs the lower layer
to be waiting for these. Modify the system interface lower layer to
turn off all timer and thread activity if the upper layer doesn't need
anything and it is not currently handling messages. And modify the
message handler to not restart the timer if its timer is not needed.
The timers and kthread will still be enabled if:
- the SI interface is handling a message.
- a user has enabled watching for events.
- the IPMI watchdog timer is in use (since it uses pretimeouts).
- the message handler is waiting on a remote response.
- a user has registered to receive commands.
This mostly affects interfaces without interrupts. Interfaces with
interrupts already don't use CPU in the system interface when the
interface is idle.

The <linux/device.h> header includes a lot of stuff, and
it in turn gets a lot of use just for the basic "struct device"
which appears so often.
Clean up the users as follows:
1) For those headers only needing "struct device" as a pointer
in fcn args, replace the include with exactly that.
2) For headers not really using anything from device.h, simply
delete the include altogether.
3) For headers relying on getting device.h implicitly before
being included themselves, now explicitly include device.h
4) For files in which doing #1 or #2 uncovers an implicit
dependency on some other header, fix by explicitly adding
the required header(s).
Any C files that were implicitly relying on device.h to be
present have already been dealt with in advance.
Total removals from #1 and #2: 51. Total additions coming
from #3: 9. Total other implicit dependencies from #4: 7.
As of 3.3-rc1, there were 110, so a net removal of 42 gives
about a 38% reduction in device.h presence in include/*

The <linux/module.h> pretty much brings in the kitchen sink along
with it, so it should be avoided wherever reasonably possible in
terms of being included from other commonly used <linux/something.h>
files, as it results in a measureable increase on compile times.
The worst culprit was probably device.h since it is used everywhere.
This file also had an implicit dependency/usage of mutex.h which was
masked by module.h, and is also fixed here at the same time.
There are over a dozen other headers that simply declare the
struct instead of pulling in the whole file, so follow their lead
and simply make it a few more.
Most of the implicit dependencies on module.h being present by
these headers pulling it in have been now weeded out, so we can
finally make this change with hopefully minimal breakage.

The IPMI smi_watcher will be used to catch the IPMI interface as they
come or go. In order to communicate with the correct IPMI device, it
should be confirmed whether it is what we wanted especially on the
system with multiple IPMI devices. But the new_smi callback function
of smi_watcher provides very limited info(only the interface number
and dev pointer) and there is no detailed info about the low level
interface. For example: which mechansim registers the IPMI
interface(ACPI, PCI, DMI and so on).
This is to add one interface that can get more info of low-level IPMI
device. For example: the ACPI device handle will be returned for the
pnp_acpi IPMI device.

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.
