2007-05-08fix hotplug for legacy platform driversDavid Brownell
We've had various reports of some legacy "probe the hardware" style platform drivers having nasty problems with hotplug support. The core issue is that those legacy drivers don't fully conform to the driver model. They assume a role that should be the responsibility of infrastructure code: creating device nodes. The "modprobe" step in hotplugging relies on drivers to have split those roles into different modules. The lack of this split causes the problems. When a driver creates nodes for devices that don't exist (sending a hotplug event), then exits (aborting one modprobe) before the "modprobe $MODALIAS" step completes (by failing, since it's in the middle of a modprobe), the result can be an endless loop of modprobe invocations ... badness. This fix uses the newish per-device flag controlling issuance of "add" events. (A previous version of this patch used a per-device "driver can hotplug" flag, which only scrubbed $MODALIAS from the environment rather than suppressing the entire hotplug event.) It also shrinks that flag to one bit, saving a word in "struct device". So the net of this patch is removing some nasty failures with legacy drivers, while retaining hotplug capability for the majority of platform drivers.

2006-04-18[ARM] 3478/1: SharpSL SCOOP: Fix potenial build failureRichard Purdie
Patch from Richard Purdie Move platform_scoop_config from the SharpSL scoop PCMCIA driver to the SCOOP driver. This avoids build failures when PCMCIA is not built or is modular (scoop.c itself cannot be modular).

2006-01-05[ARM] 3230/1: Sharp Scoop: Fix Shared Power Control IssuesRichard Purdie
Patch from Richard Purdie The SL-Cxx00 devices have a power control register in SCOOP that is shared by both CF and MMC/SD card slots. The CF reset code was resetting this register leading to various lockups as the MMC power was suddenly lost. This patch handles the CPR register in a more sensitive manner. It also removes some unneeded collie specific calls as the reset code handles this. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@rpsys.net> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-11-08[ARM] 3093/1: SharpSL PCMCIA Updates for Cxx00 modelsRichard Purdie
Patch from Richard Purdie The Sharp SL-Cxx00 models have a combined power control for the SD and CF slot 0. This patch adds hooks to the scoop driver to allow machines to provide a custom control function for this and such a function is added for spitz/akita/borzoi. It also moves the gpio init code into the machine files as this is machine dependent and differs between some models. A couple of warnings when compiling for collie are also fixed.

hardware Patch from Richard Purdie This patch updates the PCMCIA pxa2xx_sharpsl driver to support multiple scoop devices by adding a scoop to pcmcia slot mapping structure. It adds platform support for poodle, is known to work on spitz (which is dual slot) and should also support collie with a minor amount of further work.

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!
