driver core: Suppress sysfs warnings for device_rename().
Renaming network devices to an already existing name is not
something we want sysfs to print a scary warning for, since the
callers can deal with this correctly. So let's introduce
sysfs_create_link_nowarn() which gets rid of the common warning.

James Bottomley recently discovered that we have
{request,release}_firmware() dummies for the case of the actual
functions not being available and has a fix for the bug that was
actually causing build errors for built-in users with
CONFIG_FW_LOADER=m.
But now missing selects on FW_LOADER are no longer visible at
compile-time at all and can become runtime problems.
FW_LOADER is infrastructure with relatively small codesize we can safely
enable for everyone, and only for people who really need small kernels
(and can be expected to know what they are doing) it matters being able
to disable it.
This patch therefore always sets FW_LOADER=y and allows users only to
disable it with EMBEDDED=y.
As a bonus, we can then get rid of all "select FW_LOADER" plus the due
to it required "depends on HOTPLUG" which removes some complexity from
our Kconfig files.

The systdev_class_register() and sysdev_register() functions have
pr_debug() statements which are enabled when the user selects the
driver core debug. Both of these routines do not produce the
correct output, as they make assumptions about data which has not
been initialised.
In sysdev_class_register() the code uses the kobject_name(&cls->kset.kobj)
at the start of the function, but this is not setup until later in the
same call. Change this to use cls->name which is passed in from the caller.
The sysdev_register() function tries to get the name of the sysdev by
kobject_name(&sysdev->kobj), but that isn't setup until later in the same
function so change this message to use the name of the sysdev's class and
add another message once the name is initialised.

This patch adds a generic UIO platform driver. It eliminates the need for a
dedicated kernel module for simple platform devices. Users only need to
implement their irq handler in platform code and fill a struct uio_info
there. This helps avoiding code duplication as UIO platform drivers often
share a lot of common code.

Sometimes it is necessary to enable/disable the interrupt of a UIO device
from the userspace part of the driver. With this patch, the UIO kernel driver
can implement an "irqcontrol()" function that does this. Userspace can write
an s32 value to /dev/uioX (usually 0 or 1 to turn the irq off or on). The
UIO core will then call the driver's irqcontrol function.

We have the dev_printk() variants for this kind of thing, use them
instead of directly trying to access the bus_id field of struct device.
This is done in order to remove bus_id entirely.

Now that the lockdep infrastructure in the class core is in place, we
should be able to properly change the internal class semaphore to be a
mutex.

This object really should be a struct device, or at least contain a
pointer to a struct device, as it is trying to create a separate device
tree outside of the main device tree. This patch fixes this problem.
It is needed for the class core rework that is being done in the driver
core.

Why?:
There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs
attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the
device or the path. For example what is the sysfs path for
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK? With this change a call to
stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that
/sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc.
What are the alternatives?:
1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce
the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this
seems counter productive.
2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a
udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited
environment like an initramfs.
3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

This patch (as1110) reverts an earlier patch meant to help with
Wireless USB host controllers. These controllers can have bulk
maxpacket values larger than 512, which puts unusual constraints on
the sizes of scatter-gather list elements. However it turns out that
the block layer does not provide the support we need to enforce these
constraints; merely changing the DMA alignment mask doesn't help.
Hence there's no reason to keep the original patch. The Wireless USB
problem will have to be solved a different way.
In addition, there is a reason to get rid of the earlier patch. By
dereferencing a pointer stored in the ep_in array of struct
usb_device, the current code risks an invalid memory access when it
runs concurrently with device removal. The members of that array are
cleared before the driver's disconnect method is called, so it should
not try to use them.

This patch (as1109b) makes USB-Persist more resilient to errors. With
the current code, if a normal resume fails, it's an unrecoverable
error. With the patch, if a normal resume fails (and if the device is
enabled for USB-Persist) then a reset-resume is tried.
This fixes the problem reported in Bugzilla #10977.
