USB should not be having it's own printk macros, so remove err() and
use the system-wide standard of dev_err() wherever possible. In the
few places that will not work out, use a basic printk().

Now that device_create() has been audited, rename things back to the
original call to be sane.

device_create() is race-prone, so use the race-free
device_create_drvdata() instead as device_create() is going away.

The bus_id field is going away, use the dev_name() function instead.

usb_open() is protected by a down_read(&minor_rwsem), but I'm not sure I
trust it to protect everything including subsidiary open() functions.

Over two years ago, the Linux USB developers stated that they believed
there was no way to create a USB kernel driver that was not under the
GPL. This patch moves the USB apis to enforce that decision.
There are no known closed source USB drivers in the wild, so this patch
should cause no problems.

This patch (as908) adds central protection in usbcore for the
prototypical race between opening and unregistering a char device.
The spinlock used to protect the minor-numbers array is replaced with
an rwsem, which can remain locked across a call to a driver's open()
method. This guarantees that open() and deregister() will be mutually
exclusive.
The private locks currently used in several individual drivers for
this purpose are no longer necessary, and the patch removes them. The
following USB drivers are affected: usblcd, idmouse, auerswald,
legousbtower, sisusbvga/sisusb, ldusb, adutux, iowarrior, and
usb-skeleton.
As a side effect of this change, usb_deregister_dev() must not be
called while holding a lock that is acquired by open(). Unfortunately
a number of drivers do this, but luckily the solution is simple: call
usb_deregister_dev() before acquiring the lock.
In addition to these changes (and their consequent code
simplifications), the patch fixes a use-after-free bug in adutux and a
race between open() and release() in iowarrior.

Making structs const prevents accidental bugs and with the proper debug
options they're protected against corruption.

This reverts bd00949647ddcea47ce4ea8bb2cfcfc98ebf9f2a commit because it
required a newer version of udev to work properly than what is currently
documented in Documentation/Changes.

Now /sys/class/usb is dynamically created when we have something to put
in it, and removed when all devices go away.
Just trying to cut down on the clutter in sysfs...

Mark the f_ops members of inodes as const, as well as fix the
ripple-through this causes by places that copy this f_ops and then "do

This lets us remove a lot of code in the drivers that were all checking
the same thing. It also found some bugs in a few of the drivers, which
has been fixed up.

The previous patch adding the ability to nest struct class_device
changed the paramaters to the call class_device_create(). This patch
fixes up all in-kernel users of the function.

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!
