Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time the total number of ACPI commits is slightly greater than
the number of cpufreq commits, but Viresh Kumar (who works on cpufreq)
remains the most active patch submitter.
To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online
device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and
the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code. Next are the
freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of
tasks a bit less heavy weight.
We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for
issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers
and a bunch of cleanups all over.
Highlights:
- Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures.
It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations
gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely. For example,
if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated
for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's
desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way
rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel
crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory
hot-removal. Needless to say, that is not a very attractive
alternative and it had to be addressed.
However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make
it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI
processor driver. It's been split into two parts, a resident one
handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one
playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system
device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing
processors). That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a
patient who's riding a bike.
So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of
regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing
(a month ago), nobody has complained.
As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the
ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug
code.
- Lighter weight freezing of tasks.
These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are
targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight
operation. They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time
during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer
simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all
to call refrigerator(). The time needed for the freezer to decide
to report a failure is reduced too.
Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to
trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is
generally unsafe and shouldn't happen).
- cpufreq updates
First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression
introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs
attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume. The
fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa
has identified the root cause.
Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the
acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via
related_cpus. From Lan Tianyu.
Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the
CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean
up some code. The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits
from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia,
Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian.
- ACPICA update
A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream.
During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended
sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the
HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted
to use them without checking that bit. That caused suspend/resume
regressions to happen on some systems. Fix from Lv Zheng causes
those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set.
Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups
are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and
Zhang Rui.
- cpuidle updates
New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek.
Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing
kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel
Lezcano.
- ACPI power management updates
Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from
Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and
cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection
routine.
- ACPI documentation updates
Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by
Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to
uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is
updated by Hanjun Guo.
- Assorted ACPI updates
We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for
reverting commit 9f29ab11dd ("ACPI / scan: do not match drivers
against objects having scan handlers"), so we can fix it and move
the ACPI scan handler check added to the ACPI video driver back to
the core.
A mechanism for adding CMOS RTC address space handlers is
introduced by Lan Tianyu to allow some EC-related breakage to be
fixed on some systems.
A spec-compliant implementation of acpi_os_get_timer() is added by
Mika Westerberg.
The evaluation of _STA is added to do_acpi_find_child() to avoid
situations in which a pointer to a disabled device object is
returned instead of an enabled one with the same _ADR value. From
Jeff Wu.
Intel BayTrail PCH (Platform Controller Hub) support is added to
the ACPI driver for Intel Low-Power Subsystems (LPSS) and that
driver is modified to work around a couple of known BIOS issues.
Changes from Mika Westerberg and Heikki Krogerus.
The EC driver is fixed by Vasiliy Kulikov to use get_user() and
put_user() instead of dereferencing user space pointers blindly.
Code cleanups are made by Bjorn Helgaas, Nicholas Mazzuca and Toshi
Kani.
- Assorted power management updates
The "runtime idle" helper routine is changed to take the return
values of the callbacks executed by it into account and to call
rpm_suspend() if they return 0, which allows us to reduce the
overall code bloat a bit (by dropping some code that's not
necessary any more after that modification).
The runtime PM documentation is updated by Alan Stern (to reflect
the "runtime idle" behavior change).
New trace points for PM QoS are added by Sahara
(<keun-o.park@windriver.com>).
PM QoS documentation is updated by Lan Tianyu.
Code cleanups are made and minor issues are addressed by Bernie
Thompson, Bjorn Helgaas, Julius Werner, and Shuah Khan.

The "runtime idle" helper routine, rpm_idle(), currently ignores
return values from .runtime_idle() callbacks executed by it.
However, it turns out that many subsystems use
pm_generic_runtime_idle() which checks the return value of the
driver's callback and executes pm_runtime_suspend() for the device
unless that value is not 0. If that logic is moved to rpm_idle()
instead, pm_generic_runtime_idle() can be dropped and its users
will not need any .runtime_idle() callbacks any more.
Moreover, the PCI, SCSI, and SATA subsystems' .runtime_idle()
routines, pci_pm_runtime_idle(), scsi_runtime_idle(), and
ata_port_runtime_idle(), respectively, as well as a few drivers'
ones may be simplified if rpm_idle() calls rpm_suspend() after 0 has
been returned by the .runtime_idle() callback executed by it.
To reduce overall code bloat, make the changes described above.

Drivers usually expect that the devices they are supposed to handle
will be operational when their .probe() routines are called, but that
need not be the case on some ACPI-based systems with ACPI-based
device enumeration where the BIOSes don't put devices into D0 by
default. To work around this problem it is sufficient to change
bus type .probe() routines to ensure that devices will be powered
on before the drivers' .probe() routines run (and their .remove()
and .shutdown() routines accordingly).
Modify platform_drv_probe() to run acpi_dev_pm_attach() for devices
whose ACPI handles are present, so that ACPI power management is used
to change their power states. Analogously, modify
platform_drv_remove() and platform_drv_shutdown() to call
acpi_dev_pm_detach() for those devices, so that they are not subject
to ACPI PM any more.

The current platform device creation and registration code in
acpi_create_platform_device() is quite convoluted. This function
takes an ACPI device node as an argument and eventually calls
platform_device_register_resndata() to create and register a
platform device object on the basis of the information contained
in that code. However, it doesn't associate the new platform
device with the ACPI node directly, but instead it relies on
acpi_platform_notify(), called from within device_add(), to find
that ACPI node again with the help of acpi_platform_find_device()
and acpi_platform_match() and then attach the new platform device
to it. This causes an additional ACPI namespace walk to happen and
is clearly suboptimal.
Use the observation that it is now possible to initialize the ACPI
handle of a device before calling device_add() for it to make this
code more straightforward. Namely, add a new field to struct
platform_device_info allowing us to pass the ACPI handle of interest
to platform_device_register_full(), which will then use it to
initialize the new device's ACPI handle before registering it.
This will cause acpi_platform_notify() to use the ACPI handle from
the device structure directly instead of using the .find_device()
routine provided by the device's bus type. In consequence,
acpi_platform_bus, acpi_platform_find_device(), and
acpi_platform_match() are not necessary any more, so remove them.

With ACPI 5 it is now possible to enumerate traditional SoC
peripherals, like serial bus controllers and slave devices behind
them. These devices are typically based on IP-blocks used in many
existing SoC platforms and platform drivers for them may already
be present in the kernel tree.
To make driver "porting" more straightforward, add ACPI support to
the platform bus type. Instead of writing ACPI "glue" drivers for
the existing platform drivers, register the platform bus type with
ACPI to create platform device objects for the drivers and bind the
corresponding ACPI handles to those platform devices.
This should allow us to reuse the existing platform drivers for the
devices in question with the minimum amount of modifications.
This changeset is based on Mika Westerberg's and Mathias Nyman's
work.

This adds sparc support for platform_get_irq that in the normal case use
platform_get_resource() to get an irq. This standard approach fails for sparc as
there are no resources of type IORESOURCE_IRQ for irqs for sparc.
Cross platform drivers can then use this standard platform function and work on
sparc instead of having to have a special case for sparc.

Pull power management updates from Rafael J Wysocki:
- Improved system suspend/resume and runtime PM handling for the SH
TMU, CMT and MTU2 clock event devices (also used by ARM/shmobile).
- Generic PM domains framework extensions related to cpuidle support
and domain objects lookup using names.
- ARM/shmobile power management updates including improved support for
the SH7372's A4S power domain containing the CPU core.
- cpufreq changes related to AMD CPUs support from Matthew Garrett,
Andre Przywara and Borislav Petkov.
- cpu0 cpufreq driver from Shawn Guo.
- cpufreq governor fixes related to the relaxing of limit from Michal
Pecio.
- OMAP cpufreq updates from Axel Lin and Richard Zhao.
- cpuidle ladder governor fixes related to the disabling of states from
Carsten Emde and me.
- Runtime PM core updates related to the interactions with the system
suspend core from Alan Stern and Kevin Hilman.
- Wakeup sources modification allowing more helper functions to be
called from interrupt context from John Stultz and additional
diagnostic code from Todd Poynor.
- System suspend error code path fix from Feng Hong.
Fixed up conflicts in cpufreq/powernow-k8 that stemmed from the
workqueue fixes conflicting fairly badly with the removal of support for
hardware P-state chips. The changes were independent but somewhat
intertwined.

Runtime PM helper functions, like pm_runtime_get_sync(), cannot be
called by early platform device drivers, because the devices' power
management locks are not initialized at that time. This is quite
inconvenient, so modify early_platform_add_devices() to initialize
the devices power management locks as appropriate and make sure that
they won't be initialized more than once if an early platform
device is going to be used as a regular one later.

Right now we have support for explicit platform device IDs, as well as
ID-less platform devices when a given device type can only have one
instance. However there are cases where multiple instances of a device
type can exist, and their IDs aren't (and can't be) known in advance
and do not matter. In that case we need automatic device IDs to avoid
device name collisions.
I am using magic ID value -2 (PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO) for this, similar
to -1 for ID-less devices. The automatically allocated device IDs are
global (to avoid an additional per-driver cost.) We keep note that the
ID was automatically allocated so that it can be freed later.
Note that we also restore the ID to PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO on error and
device deletion, to avoid avoid unexpected behavior on retry. I don't
really expect retries on platform device addition, but better safe
than sorry.

When userspace needs to find a specific device, it currently isn't easy to
resolve a /sys/devices/ path from a specific device tree node. Nor is it
easy to obtain the compatible list for devices.
This patch generalizes the code that inserts OF_* values into the uevent
device attribute so that any device that is attached to an OF node will
have that information exported to userspace. Without this patch only
platform devices and some powerpc-specific busses have access to this
data.
The original function also creates a MODALIAS property for the compatible
list, but that code has not been generalized into the common case because
it has the potential to break module loading on a lot of bus types. Bus
types are still responsible for their own MODALIAS properties.
Boot tested on ARM and compile tested on PowerPC and SPARC.

struct platform_device, and struct pdev_archdata.

In order for MFD drivers to fetch their cell pointer but also their
platform data one, an mfd cell pointer is added to the platform_device
structure.
That allows all MFD sub devices drivers to be MFD agnostic, unless
they really need to access their MFD cell data. Most of them don't,
especially the ones for IPs used by both MFD and non MFD SoCs.

Xen save/restore is going to use hibernate device callbacks for
quiescing devices and putting them back to normal operations and it
would need to select CONFIG_HIBERNATION for this purpose. However,
that also would cause the hibernate interfaces for user space to be
enabled, which might confuse user space, because the Xen kernels
don't support hibernation. Moreover, it would be wasteful, as it
would make the Xen kernels include a substantial amount of code that
they would never use.
To address this issue introduce new power management Kconfig option
CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS, such that it will only select the code
that is necessary for the hibernate device callbacks to work and make
CONFIG_HIBERNATION select it. Then, Xen save/restore will be able to
select CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS without dragging the entire
hibernate code along with it.

Some users of platform_device_add_{data,resources}() assume that
NULL data and resources will be handled specially, i.e. just ignored.
But the platform core ends up calling kmemdup(NULL, 0, ...), which
returns a non-NULL result (i.e. ZERO_SIZE_PTR), which causes drivers
to oops on a valid code, something like:
if (platform_data)
stuff = platform_data->stuff;
This patch makes the platform core a bit more safe for such cases.

Currently, the platform_bus allows customization of several of the
busses dev_pm_ops methods by using weak symbols so that platform code
can override them. The weak-symbol approach is not scalable when
wanting to support multiple platforms in a single kernel binary.
Instead, provide __init methods for platform code to customize the
dev_pm_ops methods at runtime.
NOTE: after these dynamic methods are merged, the weak symbols should
be removed from drivers/base/platform.c. AFAIK, this will only
affect SH and sh-mobile which should be converted to use this
runtime approach instead of the weak symbols. After SH &
sh-mobile are converted, the weak symobols could be removed.

The current code allocates and manages platform_devices created from
the device tree manually. It also uses an unsafe shortcut for
allocating the platform_device and the resource table at the same
time. (which I added in the last rework; sorry).
This patch refactors the code to use platform_device_alloc() for
allocating new devices. This reduces the amount of custom code
implemented by of_platform, eliminates the unsafe alloc trick, and has
the side benefit of letting the platform_bus code manage freeing the
device data and resources when the device is freed.
