This patch converts usb-storage to use the kthread API for creating its
control and scanning threads. The new code doesn't use kthread_stop
because the threads need (or will need in the future) to exit
asynchronously.

This patch adds minimal suspend/resume support to usb-storage. Just enough
for it to qualify as PM-aware.

current tree.
This patch allocates a separate buffer for usb-storage to use when
auto-sensing. Up to now we have been using the sense buffer embedded in a
scsi_cmnd struct, which is dangerous on hosts that (a) don't do
cache-coherent DMA or (b) have DMA alignment restrictions.

This patch is originally from Alan Stern (as557). It has been re-diffed
against a current tree, and I also corrected a minor merging error.
Some time ago we introduced a delay before device scanning, because many
devices do not like to receive SCSI commands right after enumeration.
Now it turns out there's a device that doesn't like to receive
Get-Max-LUN right after enumeration either. Accordingly this patch
delays the Get-Max-LUN request until the beginning of the scanning
procedure. This fixes Bugzilla entry #5010.
Three things are worth noting. First, I removed the locking code from
usb_stor_acquire_resources. It's not needed, because the locking is to
protect against disconnect events and acquire_resources is only called
during probe (so the disconnect routine can't be called). Second, I
initialized to 0 the buffer used for the Get-Max-LUN response. It's not
really necessary, but it will prevent random values from showing up in
the debugging log when the request fails. Third, I added a test against
the SINGLE_LUN flag. This will allow us to use the flag to indicate
Bulk-only devices that can't handle Get-Max-LUN.

Sorry for the long delay, here is a patch to address this. I also clarified
some ATA/ATAPI wording + function names.

This is patch as550 from Alan Stern.
Apparently someone changed the SCSI core so that it no longer holds the
host lock when doing a device or bus reset. usb-storage was updated at
the time, but the change was done carelessly. Some of the code depends
on that lock being held.
This patch reintroduces the host lock where needed and tries to clarify
the comments explaining why the lock is necessary. It also moves the
code that clears the TIMED_OUT and ABORTING bitflags so that it executes
as soon as the timed-out command has completed (and while the host lock
is held).

This patch adds usability to the OneTouch Button on Maxtor External USB
Hard Drives. Using an unusual device entry it declares an extra init
function which claims the interrupt endpoint associated with this
button. The button is connected to the input system.

This patch started life as as534, and has been re-diffed against the latest
tree.
usb-storage has a small loophole, a window between the time queuecommand
accepts a new command and the time the control thread starts to execute
it. If disconnect is called during that window, the driver won't cancel
the pending command -- we've been relying on the SCSI core to cancel it
for us during host removal. But it's better for usb-storage to cancel
it; this avoids races and reduces reliance on the SCSI core.
Fortunately cancelling these commands is easy to do; the key is to do it
_before_ calling scsi_remove_host.

This patch started life as as533, and has been re-diffed against the
current tree.
Disconnect processing in usb-storage naturally divides into two parts:
one to quiesce the driver (make sure no commands are executing or
queued) and remove the host, and the other to deallocate all the USB and
non-USB resources. This patch creates two subroutines to handle those
two parts. Mostly it's just code movement, but there is one significant
change. If the scsi-scanning thread fails to initialize but the host
has successfully been added, we need to quiesce the driver before
removing the host. After all, it's possible that scanning could have
been initiated from somewhere else, such as userspace -- very low
probability, but it's easily handled by calling the new subroutine.

1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:
frozen(process) Check for frozen process
freezing(process) Check if a process is being frozen
freeze(process) Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
thaw_process(process) Restart process
frozen_process(process) Process is frozen now
2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
kernel sources except sched.h
3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver
4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.
5. Some whitespace cleanup
6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
PF_FROZEN).
This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
