2008-11-06cciss: fix regression firmware not displayed in procfsMike Miller
This regression was introduced by commit 6ae5ce8e8d4de666f31286808d2285aa6a50fa40 ("cciss: remove redundant code"). This patch fixes a regression where the controller firmware version is not displayed in procfs. The previous patch would be called anytime something changed. This will get called only once for each controller.

2008-11-06cciss: fix sysfs broken symlink regressionMike Miller
Regression introduced by commit 6ae5ce8e8d4de666f31286808d2285aa6a50fa40 ("cciss: remove redundant code"). This patch fixes a broken symlink in sysfs that was introduced by the above commit. We broke it in 2.6.27-rc on or about 20080804. Some installers are broken if this symlink does not exist and they may not detect the logical drives configured on the controller. It does not require being backported into 2.6.26.x or earlier kernels.

2008-10-21[PATCH] beginning of methods conversionAl Viro
To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers; to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following: 1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct prototypes, make (few) callers handle both. That's this changeset. 2) for each driver convert to new methods. *ALL* drivers are converted in this series. 3) kill the old (renamed) methods. Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the end of this series no trace of old methods remain. The only reason why we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver debugging if anything goes wrong. New methods: open(bdev, mode) release(disk, mode) ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) /* Called without BKL */ compat_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) locked_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) /* Called with BKL, legacy */ Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2008-10-20x86: sysfs: kill owner field from attributeParag Warudkar
Tejun's commit 7b595756ec1f49e0049a9e01a1298d53a7faaa15 made sysfs attribute->owner unnecessary. But the field was left in the structure to ease the merge. It's been over a year since that change and it is now time to start killing attribute->owner along with its users - one arch at a time! This patch is attempt #1 to get rid of attribute->owner only for CONFIG_X86_64 or CONFIG_X86_32 . We will deal with other arches later on as and when possible - avr32 will be the next since that is something I can test. Compile (make allyesconfig / make allmodconfig / custom config) and boot tested. akpm: the idea is that we put the declaration of sttribute.owner inside `#ifndef CONFIG_X86'. But that proved to be too ambitious for now because new usages kept on turning up in subsystem trees.
