      sysfs: add parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in .read/.write methods for sysfs binary attributes · 91a69029
      Zhang Rui authored
      
      Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either.
      
      What I do:
      Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the
      .read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes.
      
      In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and
      include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work.
      But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes
      to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods.
      I'm not sure if I missed any. :(
      
      Why I do this:
      For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the
      struct attribute in the .show/.store method,
      while we can't do this for the binary attributes.
      I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not
      so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones.
      So I think this patch is reasonable. :)
      
      Who benefits from it:
      The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs
      requires such an improvement.
      All the table binary attributes share the same .read method.
      Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get
      the table signature and instance number which are used to
      distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes.
      
      Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods
      for different ACPI table binary attributes.
      This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different
      platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

      sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->owner · 7b595756
      Tejun Heo authored
      sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game.  After
      deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
      so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners.  Note that
      often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
      accessing removed modules.
      
      This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner.  Note that with
      this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
      backing module from being unloaded.
      
      For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
      following message.

      merge things properly.)

      [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h · cd354f1a
      Tim Schmielau authored
      
      After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
      recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
      There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
      anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
      macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
      course of cleaning it up.
      
      To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
      removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
      
      Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
      arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
      allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
      configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
      introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
      by unnecessarily included header files).
