Both mxser_disable_must_enchance_mode() and mxser_get_must_hardware_id()
called from function CheckIsMoxaMust(), when CONFIG_PCI=y.  So mark both

<title>Char: mxser, call pci_disable_device from probe/remove</title>

Vasiliy found that pci_disable_device is not called on fail paths in
mxser_probe. Actually, it is called from nowhere in the driver.

There are three changes needed:
1) don't use pseudo-generic mxser_release_res. Let's use it only from
   ISA paths from now on. All the pci stuff is moved to probe and
   remove PCI-related functions.
2) reorder fail-paths in the probe function so that it makes sense and
   we can call them from the sequential code naturally (the further we
   are the earlier label we go to).
3) add pci_disable_device both to mxser_probe and mxser_remove.

There is a nit of adding CONFIG_PCI ifdef to mxser_remove. it is
because this driver supports ISA-only compilations and it would choke
up on the newly added calls now.

mxser_transmit_chars(tty, port) is called only from mxser_interrupt().
NULL check is performed in mxser_interrupt() so it is redundant here.

This forgot to update a field in the old char drivers. The fact nobody
has basically noticed (except one mxser user) rather suggests most of these
drivers could go into the bitbucket.

This should be spin_lock_irq() to match the spin_unlock_irq().  Originally
it was a lock_kernel() but we switched everything to spin_lock_irq() last
November.

<title>include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h</title>

<id>5a0e3ad6af8660be21ca98a971cd00f331318c05</id>
<content type='text'>
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -&gt; slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

At first this looks a fairly trivial conversion but we can't quite push
everything into the right format yet. The open side is easy but care is needed
over the setserial methods. Fix up the locking now that we've adopted the
port-&gt;mutex locking rule for the initialization.

At first this looks a fairly trivial conversion but we can't quite push
