Every usb serial driver should have a pointer to the corresponding usb driver.
So the usb serial core can add a new id not only to the usb serial driver, but
also to the usb driver.
Also the usb drivers of ark3116, mos7720 and mos7840 missed the flag
no_dynamic_id=1. This is added now.

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

USB serial outside of the kernel tree can not build properly due to
usb-serial.h being buried down in the source tree. This patch moves the
location of the file to include/linux/usb and fixes up all of the usb
serial drivers to handle the move properly.

Use ARRAY_SIZE macro instead of sizeof(x)/sizeof(x[0]) and remove
duplicates of ARRAY_SIZE. Some trailing whitespaces are also removed.
Patch is compile-tested on i386.

patch below marks various USB tables and variables as const so that they
end up in .rodata section and don't cacheline share with things that get
written to. For the non-array variables it also allows gcc to optimize
more.

It is no longer needed, so let's remove it, saving a bit of memory.

This lets drivers, like the usb-serial ones, disable the ability to add
ids from sysfs.
The usb-serial drivers are "odd" in that they are really usb-serial bus
drivers, not usb bus drivers, so the dynamic id logic will have to go
into the usb-serial bus core for those drivers to get that ability.

This fixes up a lot of problems in sysfs with some of the usb serial
drivers, they had incorrect driver names. Also saves a tiny ammount
of memory.

Don't duplicate something that's already in struct driver.

I'm tired of trying to explain why a "device_type" is really a driver.
This better describes exactly what this structure is.

This removes a lot of racy and buggy code by trying to check the status of the urb.

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!
