<title>ACPI / glue: Add .match() callback to struct acpi_bus_type</title>

<id>53540098b23c3884b4a0b4f220b9d977bc496af3</id>
<content type='text'>
USB uses the .find_bridge() callback from struct acpi_bus_type
incorrectly, because as a result of the way it is used by USB every
device in the system that doesn't have a bus type or parent is
passed to usb_acpi_find_device() for inspection.

What USB actually needs, though, is to call usb_acpi_find_device()
for USB ports that don't have a bus type defined, but have
usb_port_device_type as their device type, as well as for USB
devices.

To fix that replace the struct bus_type pointer in struct
acpi_bus_type used for matching devices to specific subsystems
with a .match() callback to be used for this purpose and update
the users of struct acpi_bus_type, including USB, accordingly.
Define the .match() callback routine for USB, usb_acpi_bus_match(),
in such a way that it will cover both USB devices and USB ports
and remove the now redundant .find_bridge() callback pointer from
usb_acpi_bus.

Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
 "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing -&gt;d_name/-&gt;d_parent
  locking violations, etc.

  The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
  "has -&gt;d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
  to inode.  Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.

  Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
  several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.

  PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

<title>usb: forbid memory allocation with I/O during bus reset</title>

<content type='text'>
If one storage interface or usb network interface(iSCSI case) exists in
current configuration, memory allocation with GFP_KERNEL during
usb_device_reset() might trigger I/O transfer on the storage interface
itself and cause deadlock because the 'us-&gt;dev_mutex' is held in
.pre_reset() and the storage interface can't do I/O transfer when the
reset is triggered by other interface, or the error handling can't be
completed if the reset is triggered by the storage itself (error
handling path).

This reverts commit 88bb965ed711e8a5984e70208ebc901a6ff4141f.

The linux-next branch of linux-pm tree has replaced
acpi_power_resource_(un)register_device() with new routines.
Commit 88bb965 will cause conflict in the linux-next tree.
So revert it and this will not affect other functions. Will
send a new patch with new routines after 3.9 merge window.

This patch (as1649) adds a mechanism for host controller drivers to
inform usbcore when they have begun or ended resume signalling on a
particular root-hub port.  The core will then make sure that the root
hub does not get runtime-suspended while the port resume is going on.

Since commit 596d789a211d134dc5f94d1e5957248c204ef850 (USB: set hub's
default autosuspend delay as 0), the system tries to suspend hubs
whenever they aren't in use.  While a root-hub port is being resumed,
the root hub does not appear to be in use.  Attempted runtime suspends
fail because of the ongoing port resume, but the PM core just keeps on
trying over and over again.  We want to prevent this wasteful effort.

This patch is to set power.async_suspend for usb port in order
to allow it to be suspended and resumed asynchronously during
system sleep transitions.

The power.async_suspend flag is also set for devices that don't have
suspend or resume callbacks, because otherwise they would make the
main suspend/resume thread wait for their "asynchronous" children
(during suspend) or parents (during resume), effectively negating the
possible gains from executing these devices' suspend and resume
callbacks asynchronously.

pm_qos_remote_wakeup) to user space. User can set pm_qos_no_power_off
