When an error occurred during event registration memory was freed twice
resulting in kernel memory corruption and a crash in unrelated code.
The problem was caused by
iio_device_unregister_eventset()
iio_device_unregister_sysfs()
being called twice, once on the error path and then
again via iio_dev_release().
Fix this by making these two functions idempotent so they
may be called multiple times.

These changes are needed to support the functionality of a pedometer.
A pedometer has two basic functionalities: step counter and step detector.
The step counter needs to be enabled and then it will count the steps
in its hardware register. Whenever the application needs to check
the step count, it will read the step counter register. To support the
step counter a new channel type STEPS is added. Since the pedometer needs
to be enabled first so that the hardware can count and store the steps,
we need a specific ENABLE channel info mask.
The step detector will generate an interrupt each time a step is detected.
To support this functionality we add a new event type INSTANCE.
For more information on the Android requirements for step counter and step
detector see:

and http://source.android.com/devices/sensors/composite_sensors.html#detector.

When event spec is shared by multiple channels, which has definition
for mask_shared_by_type, iio_device_register_eventset fails.
For example:
static const struct iio_event_spec iio_dummy_events[] = {
{
.type = IIO_EV_TYPE_THRESH,
.dir = IIO_EV_DIR_RISING,
.mask_separate = BIT(IIO_EV_INFO_ENABLE),
.mask_shared_by_type = BIT(IIO_EV_INFO_VALUE),
}, {
.type = IIO_EV_TYPE_THRESH,
.dir = IIO_EV_DIR_FALLING,
.mask_separate = BIT(IIO_EV_INFO_ENABLE),a
.mask_shared_by_type = BIT(IIO_EV_INFO_VALUE),
}
};
If two channels use this event spec, this will result in error.
This change handles EBUSY error similar to iio_device_add_info_mask_type().

The event code currently holds a spinlock with IRQs disabled while calling
kfifo_to_user(). kfifo_to_user() can generate a page fault though, which means
we have to be able to sleep, which is not possible if the interrupts are
disabled. The good thing is that kfifo handles concurrent read and write access
just fine as long as there is only one reader and one writer, so we do not any
locking to protect against concurrent access from the read and writer thread. It
is possible though that userspace is trying to read from the event FIFO from
multiple concurrent threads, so we need to add locking to protect against this.
This is done using a mutex. The mutex will only protect the kfifo_to_user()
call, it will not protect the waitqueue. This means that multiple threads can be
waiting for new data and once a new event is added to the FIFO all waiting
threads will be woken up. If one of those threads is unable to read any data
(because another thread already read all the data) it will go back to sleep. The
only remaining issue is that now that the clearing of the BUSY flag and the
emptying of the FIFO does no longer happen in one atomic step it is possible
that a event is added to the FIFO after it has been emptied and this sample will
be visible the next time a new event file descriptor is created. To avoid this
rather move the emptying of the FIFO from iio_event_chrdev_release to
iio_event_getfd().

This patch enhances the type safety for the kfifo API. It is now safe
to put const data into a non const FIFO and the API will now generate a
compiler warning when reading from the fifo where the destination
address is pointing to a const variable.
As a side effect the kfifo_put() does now expect the value of an element
instead a pointer to the element. This was suggested Russell King. It
make the handling of the kfifo_put easier since there is no need to
create a helper variable for getting the address of a pointer or to pass
integers of different sizes.
IMHO the API break is okay, since there are currently only six users of
kfifo_put().
The code is also cleaner by kicking out the "if (0)" expressions.

The event configuration interface of the IIO framework has not been getting the
same attention as other parts. As a result it has not seen the same improvements
as e.g. the channel interface has seen with the introduction of the channel spec
struct. Currently all the event config callbacks take a u64 (the so called event
code) to pass all the different information about for which event the callback
is invoked. The callback function then has to extract the information it is
interested in using some macros with rather long names. Most information encoded
in the event code comes straight from the iio_chan_spec struct the event was
registered for. Since we always have a handle to the channel spec when we call
the event callbacks the first step is to add the channel spec as a parameter to
the event callbacks. The two remaining things encoded in the event code are the
type and direction of the event. Instead of passing them in one parameter, add
one parameter for each of them and remove the eventcode from the event
callbacks. The patch also adds a new iio_event_info parameter to the
{read,write}_event_value callbacks. This makes it possible, similar to the
iio_chan_info_enum for channels, to specify additional properties other than
just the value for an event. Furthermore the new interface will allow to
register shared events. This is e.g. useful if a device allows configuring a
threshold event, but the threshold setting is the same for all channels.
To implement this the patch adds a new iio_event_spec struct which is similar to
the iio_chan_spec struct. It as two field to specify the type and the direction
of the event. Furthermore it has a mask field for each one of the different
iio_shared_by types. These mask fields holds which kind of attributes should be
registered for the event. Creation of the attributes follows the same rules as
the for the channel attributes. E.g. for the separate_mask there will be a
attribute for each channel with this event, for the shared_by_type there will
only be one attribute per channel type. The iio_chan_spec struct gets two new
fields, 'event_spec' and 'num_event_specs', which is used to specify which the
events for this channel. These two fields are going to replace the channel's
event_mask field.
For now both the old and the new event config interface coexist, but over the
few patches all drivers will be converted from the old to the new interface.
Once that is done all code for supporting the old interface will be removed.

IIO uses anon_inode_get() to allocate file descriptors as part
of its ioctls. But those ioctls are lacking a flag argument
allowing userspace to choose options for the newly opened file
descriptor.
In such case it's advised to use O_CLOEXEC by default so that
userspace is allowed to choose, without race, if the file descriptor
is going to be inherited across exec().
KVM usage of anon_inode_getfd() was fixed in a previous patchset [1],
so IIO is the only subsystem using anon_inode_getfd() with a fixed set
of flags not including O_CLOEXEC.
This patch set O_CLOEXEC flag on the event file descriptor created
with anon_inode_getfd() to not leak file descriptors across exec().

Currently it is not save to call iio_push_event() from hard IRQ context since
the IIO event code uses spin_lock()/spin_unlock() and it is not save to mix
calls to spin_lock()/spin_unlock() from different contexts on the same lock.
E.g. if the lock is being held in iio_event_chrdev_read() and an interrupts
kicks in and the interrupt handler calls iio_push_event() we end uo with a
deadlock.
This patch updates iio_push_event() to use spin_lock_irqsave()/
spin_unlock_irqstrestore(), since it can be called from both IRQ and non-IRQ
context. All other other users of the lock, which are always run in non-IRQ
context, are updated to spin_lock_irq()/spin_unlock_irq().

The function __iio_add_event_config_attrs is only called once, by the
function iio_device_register_eventset. If the call fails,
iio_device_register_eventset calls __iio_remove_event_config_attrs. There
is thus no need for __iio_add_event_config_attrs to also call
__iio_remove_event_config_attrs on failure.
