3d63430a26 i2c: Convert the pca9539 driver to a new-style i2c driver
The new-style pca9539 driver implements the optional detect() callback
to cover the use cases of the legacy driver.

Warning: users will now have to use the force module parameter to get
the driver to attach to their device. That's not a bad thing as these
devices can't be detected anyway.

Note that this doesn't change the fact that this driver is deprecated
in favor of gpio/pca953x.

8a56ce1033 i2c: Deprecate the legacy gpio drivers
The legacy pcf8574 and pcf8575 drivers should be avoided
on systems using the new gpiolib code, and generally deprecated
in the same way the legacy pca9539 driver is deprecated.

Also, correct the pca9539 deprecation to match the current name
of the preferred driver:  pca953x, supporting several more chips.

1b4dff9cd3 i2c/eeprom: Fall back to SMBus read word transactions
When I2C block reads are not supported by the underlying adapter, use
SMBus read word transactions instead of consecutive byte reads.
Reasons for this change are:

* The consecutive byte read approach is not safe on multi-master buses.

* While consecutive byte reads have less overhead if you only count the
  bytes on the bus, it takes more than twice as many transactions as
  with SMBus read word transactions, and each transaction has a cost:
  taking and releasing the adapter mutex, and for polling drivers,
  waiting for the transaction to complete.

This change yields a significant performance boost at HZ=250 with
EEPROMs on an Intel 82801 bus (basically twice as fast.)

SMBus read word transactions are widely supported so I don't expect
compatibility issues.

70455e7903 i2c/max6875: Really prevent 24RF08 corruption
i2c-core takes care of the possible corruption of 24RF08 chips for
quite some times, so device devices no longer need to do it. And they
really should not, as applying the prevention twice voids it.

3760f73671 i2c: Convert most new-style drivers to use module aliasing
Based on earlier work by Jon Smirl and Jochen Friedrich.

Update most new-style i2c drivers to use standard module aliasing
instead of the old driver_name/type driver matching scheme. I've
left the video drivers apart (except for SoC camera drivers) as
they're a bit more diffcult to deal with, they'll have their own
patch later.

6d072d78f8 i2c/tps65010: Add missing intialization of client data
tps65010_remove() calls i2c_get_clientdata(client) but the client data
is never set during initialization, so it gets a NULL pointer at best.

I guess it was never spotted because the tps65010 driver is typically
not built modular so this function is discarded.

0c4a59fed4 OMAP: add TI TWL92330/Menelaus Power Management chip driver
Add Texas Instruments TWL92330/Menelaus Power Management chip driver.  This
includes voltage regulators, Dual slot memory card tranceivers and
real-time clock(RTC).

The support for RTC is integrated with this driver only; it is not separate
module.  Passes 'rtctest' on OMAP H4 EVM, other than lack of "periodic"
(1/N second) IRQs.  System wakeup alarms (from suspend-to-RAM) work too.

The battery keeps the RTC active over power off, so once you set clock
(rdate/ntpdate/etc, then "hwclock -w") then RTC_HCTOSYS at boot time will
behave as expected.

4b2643d7d9 i2c: Fix the i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() prototype
Let the drivers specify how many bytes they want to read with
i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data(). So far, the block count was
hard-coded to I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX (32), which did not make much sense.
Many driver authors complained about this before, and I believe it's
about time to fix it. Right now, authors have to do technically stupid
things, such as individual byte reads or full-fledged I2C messaging,
to work around the problem. We do not want to encourage that.

I even found that some bus drivers (e.g. i2c-amd8111) already
implemented I2C block read the "right" way, that is, they didn't
follow the old, broken standard. The fact that it was never noticed
before just shows how little i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() was used,
which isn't that surprising given how broken its prototype was so far.

There are some obvious compatiblity considerations:
* This changes the i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() prototype. Users
  outside the kernel tree will notice at compilation time, and will
  have to update their code.
* User-space has access to i2c_smbus_xfer() directly using i2c-dev, so
  the changed expectations would affect tools such as i2cdump. In order
  to preserve binary compatibility, we give I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA
  a new numeric value, and define I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_BROKEN with the
  old numeric value. When i2c-dev receives a transaction with the
  old value, it can convert it to the new format on the fly.

ba7fbb723f i2c: Deprecate legacy RTC drivers
We have a new RTC subsystem with better drivers.

Legacy driver status:
* ds1337: The DS1337 and DS1339 are now supported by the rtc-ds1307
  driver, so it looks to me like we could even delete the ds1337
  driver right away.
* ds1374: Will soon be replaced with Scott Wood's rtc-ds1374 driver.
* m41t00: The M41T00 is supported by the rtc-ds1307 driver. For the
  M41T81 and M41T85, the rtc-m41t80 driver written by Atsushi Nemoto
  should work.

91a6902958 sysfs: add parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in .read/.write methods for sysfs binary attributes
Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either.

What I do:
Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the
.read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes.

In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and
include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work.
But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes
to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods.
I'm not sure if I missed any. :(

Why I do this:
For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the
struct attribute in the .show/.store method,
while we can't do this for the binary attributes.
I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not
so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones.
So I think this patch is reasonable. :)

Who benefits from it:
The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs
requires such an improvement.
All the table binary attributes share the same .read method.
Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get
the table signature and instance number which are used to
distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes.

Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods
for different ACPI table binary attributes.
This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different
platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

7b595756ec sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->owner
sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game.  After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners.  Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.

This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner.  Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.

For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
following message.

merge things properly.)
