Platform drivers registered via platform_driver_probe() can be bound
to devices only once, upon registration, because discard their probe()
routines to save memory. Unbinding the driver through sysfs 'unbind'
leaves the device stranded and confuses users so let's not create
bind and unbind attributes for such drivers.

In this patch:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=16dc42e018c2868211b4928f20a957c0c216126c
the check was added for another driver to already claim the same device
on the same bus. But the returned error code was wrong: to modprobe, the
-EEXIST means that _this_ driver is already installed. It therefore
doesn't produce the needed error message when _another_ driver is trying
to register for the same device. Returning -EBUSY fixes the problem.

In the case where cpuidle_idle_call() returns before changing state due to
a need_resched(), it was returning with IRQs disabled.
The idle path assumes that the platform specific idle code returns with
interrupts enabled (although this too is undocumented AFAICT) and on ARM
we have a WARN_ON(!(irqs_disabled()) when returning from the idle loop, so
the user-visible effects were only a warning since interrupts were
eventually re-enabled later.
On x86, this same problem exists, but there is no WARN_ON() to detect it.
As on ARM, the interrupts are eventually re-enabled, so I'm not sure of
any actual bugs triggered by this. It's primarily a
correctness/consistency fix.
This patch ensures IRQs are (re)enabled before returning.

struct lockdep_map rcu_lock_map =
STATIC_LOCKDEP_MAP_INIT("rcu_read_lock", &rcu_lock_key);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(rcu_lock_map);
from kernel/rcutree.c , and the false warning looked like this,
WARNING: EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); should immediately follow its
function/variable
+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(rcu_lock_map);
We actually should be checking the statement before the EXPORT_* for a
mention of the exported object, and complain where it is not there.

In the following code,
union thread_union init_thread_union
__attribute__((__section__(".data.init_task"))) =

There is a non-conforming declaration. It should really be like the
following,
union thread_union init_thread_union
__attribute__((__section__(".data.init_task"))) = {
INIT_THREAD_INFO(init_task)
};
However, checkpatch doesn't catch this right now because it doesn't
correctly evaluate the "__attribute__".
It is not at all clear that we care what preceeds an assignment style
attribute when we find the open brace. Relax the test so we do not need
to check the __attribute__.

The macro concatenation (##) sequence can cause false errors when checking
macro's. Checkpatch doesn't currently know about the operator.
For example this line,
+ entry = (struct ftrace_raw_##call *)raw_data; \
is correct but it produces the following error,
ERROR: need consistent spacing around '*' (ctx:WxB)
+ entry = (struct ftrace_raw_##call *)raw_data;\
^
The line above doesn't have any spacing problems, and if you remove the
macro concatenation sequence checkpatch doesn't give any errors.
Extend identifier handling to include ## concatenation within the
definition of an identifier.

The i5400 EDAC driver has several bugs with chip-select row computation
which most likely lead to bugs in detailed error reporting. Attempts to
contact the authors have gone mostly unanswered so I am presenting my diff
here. I do not subscribe to lkml and would appreciate being kept in the
cc.
The most egregious problem was miscalculating the addresses of MTR
registers after register 0 by assuming they are 32bit rather than 16.
This caused the driver to miss half of the memories. Most motherboards
tend to have only 8 dimm slots and not 16, so this may not have been
noticed before.
Further, the row calculations multiplied the number of dimms several
times, ultimately ending up with a maximum row of 32. The chipset only
supports 4 dimms in each of 4 channels, so csrow could not be higher than
4 unless you use a row per-rank with dual-rank dimms. I opted to
eliminate this behavior as it is confusing to the user and the error
reporting works by slot and not rank. This gives a much clearer view of
memory by slot and channel in /sys.
