4e5e8de0db [ARM] pxa: avoid kfreeing static data if platform device fails to register
When a dynamically allocated platform device is 'put', the platform
device's platform_data is kfree'd.  This is bad if it's pointing at
static data.  Use the provided function to register platform data
for these devices.

This also means we can mark the pcmcia ops structures as __initdata.

49a4ec188f fix hotplug for legacy platform drivers
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.

7ea3bbbc89 [ARM] 3478/1: SharpSL SCOOP: Fix potenial build failure
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).

945b957972 [ARM] 3230/1: Sharp Scoop: Fix Shared Power Control Issues
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.

a63ae4427c [ARM] 3093/1: SharpSL PCMCIA Updates for Cxx00 models
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.

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!
