Mapping of physical memory in UIO needs pgprot_noncached() to ensure
that IO memory is not cached. Without pgprot_noncached(), it (accidentally)
works on x86 and arm, but fails on PPC.

This fixes two bugs with UIO that cropped up recently in -rc1

1) WARNING: at fs/sysfs/file.c:334 sysfs_open_file when trying to open
   a map addr/size file - complaining about missing sysfs_ops for ktype

2) Permission denied when reading uio/uio0/maps/map0/{addr,size} when
   files are mode S_IRUGO

Also fix a typo: attr_attribute -&gt; addr_attribute

There is no need for kobject_unregister() anymore, thanks to Kay's
kobject cleanup changes, so replace all instances of it with
kobject_put().

The uio kobject code is "wierd".  This patch should hopefully fix it up
to be sane and not leak memory anymore.

<title>kobject: remove struct kobj_type from struct kset</title>

We don't need a "default" ktype for a kset.  We should set this
explicitly every time for each kset.  This change is needed so that we
can make ksets dynamic, and cleans up one of the odd, undocumented
assumption that the kset/kobject/ktype model has.

This patch is based on a lot of help from Kay Sievers.

Nasty bug in the block code was found by Dave Young

<title>UIO: Hilscher CIF card driver</title>

<id>bc4c4f45acbe1f1528d654b0b1793f25c175bf8f</id>
<content type='text'>
this is a patch that adds support for Hilscher CIF DeviceNet and
Profibus cards. I tested it on a Kontron CPX board, and Thomas reviewed
it.

You can find the user space part here:

http://www.osadl.org/projects/downloads/UIO/user/cif-0.1.0.tar.gz

Notes: cif_api.c is the main file you want to look at. It contains the
functions to open, close, mmap and so on. cif_dps.c adds functions
specific to Profibus cards, and cif_dn.c contains functions for
DeviceNet cards.  cif.c is a universal playground, it's just a small
test program.  The user space part of this UIO driver is still work in
progress, and not everything is tested yet. At the moment, the thread in
cif_api.c contains some code that artificially makes the card generate
interrupts, this was added for testing and will be removed later. But
the driver already contains all the functions needed for useful
operation, so it gives a good idea of how such a thing looks like.

For comparison, here's what you get from the manufacturer
(www.hilscher.com) when you ask for a Linux 2.6 driver:

http://www.tglx.de/private/hjk/cif-orig-2.6.tar.bz2

WARNING: Don't look at the code for too long, you might become sick :-)
