Remove all #inclusions of asm/system.h

2012-03-28T17:30:03Z

Remove all #inclusions of asm/system.h preparatory to splitting and killing it. Performed with the following command: perl -p -i -e 's!^#\s*include\s*.*\n!!' `grep -Irl '^#\s*include\s*' *` Signed-off-by: David Howells

drivers/char: comment fix: CMOS RTC update code is now in kernel/time/ntp.c

2012-02-03T21:50:56Z

This commit updates some comments to reflect the fact that code for periodically updating the CMOS RTC was moved to: kernel/time/ntp.c probably by this commit: commit 82644459c592a28a3eab682f9b88d81019ddfe8b Author: Thomas Gleixner Date: Sat Jul 21 04:37:37 2007 -0700 NTP: move the cmos update code into ntp.c i386 and sparc64 have the identical code to update the cmos clock. Move it into kernel/time/ntp.c as there are other architectures coming along with the same requirements. Signed-off-by: Michael Witten Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

drivers/char/rtc: use printk_ratelimited instead of printk_ratelimit

2011-09-15T12:05:25Z

Since printk_ratelimit() shouldn't be used anymore (see comment in include/linux/printk.h), replace it with printk_ratelimited. Signed-off-by: Christian Dietrich Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

of/device: Replace struct of_device with struct platform_device

2010-08-06T15:25:50Z

of_device is just an alias for platform_device, so remove it entirely. Also replace to_of_device() with to_platform_device() and update comment blocks. This patch was initially generated from the following semantic patch, and then edited by hand to pick up the bits that coccinelle didn't catch. @@ @@ -struct of_device +struct platform_device Signed-off-by: Grant Likely Reviewed-by: David S. Miller

sysctl: Drop & in front of every proc_handler.

2009-11-18T16:37:40Z

For consistency drop & in front of every proc_handler. Explicity taking the address is unnecessary and it prevents optimizations like stubbing the proc_handlers to NULL. Cc: Alexey Dobriyan Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman

sysctl drivers: Remove dead binary sysctl support

2009-11-12T10:04:58Z

Now that sys_sysctl is a wrapper around /proc/sys all of the binary sysctl support elsewhere in the tree is dead code.

headers: Fix build after removal

2009-10-13T17:20:16Z

Commit d43c36dc6b357fa1806800f18aa30123c747a6d1 ("headers: remove sched.h from interrupt.h") left some build errors in some configurations due to drivers having depended on getting header files "accidentally".

RTC: Remove the BKL.

2009-01-08T23:44:03Z

Remove calls to the BKL since concurrent access is protected by the spin lock rtc_lock. Signed-off-by: David John Cc: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet
