Use proc_create()/proc_create_data() to make sure that ->proc_fops and ->data
be setup before gluing PDE to main tree.

proc: remove proc_root from drivers

2008-04-29T15:06:18+00:00

Remove proc_root export.  Creation and removal works well if parent PDE is
supplied as NULL -- it worked always that way.

So, one useless export removed and consistency added, some drivers created
PDEs with &proc_root as parent but removed them as NULL and so on.

misc: fix platform driver hotplug/coldplug

2008-04-16T02:35:40+00:00

Since 43cc71eed1250755986da4c0f9898f9a635cb3bf, the platform modalias is
prefixed with "platform:".  Add MODULE_ALIAS() to the hotpluggable 'misc'
platform drivers, to re-enable auto loading.

PCI: Cleanup the includes of

2007-05-03T02:02:35+00:00

I noticed that many source files include  while they do
not appear to need it. Here is an attempt to clean it all up.

In order to find all possibly affected files, I searched for all
files including  but without any other occurence of "pci"
or "PCI". I removed the include statement from all of these, then I
compiled an allmodconfig kernel on both i386 and x86_64 and fixed the
false positives manually.

My tests covered 66% of the affected files, so there could be false
positives remaining. Untested files are:

arch/alpha/kernel/err_common.c
arch/alpha/kernel/err_ev6.c
arch/alpha/kernel/err_ev7.c

I would welcome test reports for these files. I am fine with removing
the untested files from the patch if the general opinion is that these
changes aren't safe. The tested part would still be nice to have.

Note that this patch depends on another header fixup patch I submitted
to LKML yesterday:
