Add the foundations of a new LEDs subsystem.  This patch adds a class which
presents LED devices within sysfs and allows their brightness to be

Serio and gameport cores do not depend on other drivers and are
used by code living outside of drivers/input/{gameport|serio}.
Registering them at subsystem level guarantees that they are
fully initialized before anyone tries to use them.

Actually I think this is more appropriate so we don't end up with 17
cases that add drivers/sn to the build lib.
Include drivers/sn when CONFIG_IA64_SGI_SN2 or CONFIG_IA64_GENERIC
is enabled.

This is a subset of the bluesmoke project core code, stripped of the NMI work
which isn't ready to merge and some of the "interesting" proc functionality
that needs reworking or just has no place in kernel.  It requires no core
kernel changes except the added scrub functions already posted.

The goal is to merge further functionality only after the core code is
accepted and proven in the base kernel, and only at the point the upstream
extras are really ready to merge.

From: doug thompson &lt;norsk5@xmission.com&gt;

  This converts EDAC to sysfs and is the final chunk neccessary before EDAC
  has a stable user space API and can be considered for submission into the
  base kernel.

<title>[PATCH] spi: simple SPI framework</title>
<updated>2006-01-14T00:29:54+00:00</updated>
<author>
<name>David Brownell</name>
<email>david-b@pacbell.net</email>

<published>2006-01-08T21:34:19+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=8ae12a0d85987dc138f8c944cb78a92bf466cea0'/>
<id>8ae12a0d85987dc138f8c944cb78a92bf466cea0</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the core of a small SPI framework, implementing the model of a
queue of messages which complete asynchronously (with thin synchronous
wrappers on top).

  - It's still less than 2KB of ".text" (ARM).  If there's got to be a
    mid-layer for something so simple, that's the right size budget.  :)

  - The guts use board-specific SPI device tables to build the driver
    model tree.  (Hardware probing is rarely an option.)

  - This version of Kconfig includes no drivers.  At this writing there
    are two known master controller drivers (PXA/SSP, OMAP MicroWire)
    and three protocol drivers (CS8415a, ADS7846, DataFlash) with LKML
    mentions of other drivers in development.

  - No userspace API.  There are several implementations to compare.
    Implement them like any other driver, and bind them with sysfs.

The changes from last version posted to LKML (on 11-Nov-2005) are minor,
and include:

  - One bugfix (removes a FIXME), with the visible effect of making device
    names be "spiB.C" where B is the bus number and C is the chipselect.

  - The "caller provides DMA mappings" mechanism now has kerneldoc, for
    DMA drivers that want to be fancy.

  - Hey, the framework init can be subsys_init.  Even though board init
    logic fires earlier, at arch_init ... since the framework init is
    for driver support, and the board init support uses static init.

  - Various additional spec/doc clarifications based on discussions
    with other folk.  It adds a brief "thank you" at the end, for folk
    who've helped nudge this framework into existence.

As I've said before, I think that "protocol tweaking" is the main support
that this driver framework will need to evolve.

From: Mark Underwood &lt;basicmark@yahoo.com&gt;

  Update the SPI framework to remove a potential priority inversion case by
  reverting to kmalloc if the pre-allocated DMA-safe buffer isn't available.
