A few new i2c-drivers came into the kernel which clear the clientdata-pointer
on exit. This is obsolete meanwhile, so fix it and hope the word will spread.

In an effort to minimize customer confusion we want to unify naming
convention for VMware-provided kernel modules. This change renames the
balloon driver from vmware_ballon to vmw_balloon.
We expect to follow this naming convention (vmw_<module_name>) for all
modules that are part of mainline kernel and/or being distributed by
VMware, with the sole exception of vmxnet3 driver (since the name of
mainline driver happens to match with the name used in VMware Tools).

The MFGPT hardware may be set up only once, therefore
cs5535_mfgpt_free_timer() didn't re-set the timer's "avail" bit. However
if a timer is freed before it has actually been in use then it may be made
available again.

sysfs-writable charp arguments need to be locked against modification
(since the old ones may be kfreed underneath us). String arguments
are much simpler, so use them for small strings (eg. IFNAMSIZ).
lkdtm only uses the parameters at module initialization time, so there's
not much point making them writable.

This driver adds support for the BMP085 digital pressure sensor from Bosch
Sensortec. It exposes a sysfs api to userspace where pressure and
temperature measurement results can be read from the pressure0_input and
temp0_input file. The chip is able to calculate the average of up to
eight samples to increase the accuracy. This feature can be controlled by
writing to the oversampling file.
The BMP085 digital pressure sensor can measure ambient air pressure and
temperature. Both values can be obtained from sysfs files. The pressure
is measured by reading from pressure0_input. Valid values range from
30000 to 110000 pascal with a resolution of 1 pascal (=0.01 millibar).
temp0_input holds the current temperature in degree celsius, multiplied by
10. This results in a resolution of a tenth degree celsius. Values range
from -400 to 850.
To increase the accuracy, this chip can calculate the average of 1, 2, 4
or 8 samples. This behavior is controlled through the oversampling sysfs
file. Two to the power of the value written to that file specifies how
many samples will be used. Valid values: 0..3.

Add support for ROHM BH1780GLI Ambient light sensor.
BH1780 supports I2C interface. Driver supports read/update of power state
and read of lux value (through SYSFS). Writing value 3 to power_state
enables the sensor and current lux value could be read.
Currently this driver follows the same sysfs convention as supported by
drivers/misc/isl29003.c.

I2C drivers can use the clientdata-pointer to point to private data. As I2C
devices are not really unregistered, but merely detached from their driver, it
used to be the drivers obligation to clear this pointer during remove() or a
failed probe(). As a couple of drivers forgot to do this, it was agreed that it
was cleaner if the i2c-core does this clearance when appropriate, as there is
no guarantee for the lifetime of the clientdata-pointer after remove() anyhow.
This feature was added to the core with commit
e4a7b9b04de15f6b63da5ccdd373ffa3057a3681 to fix the faulty drivers.
As there is no need anymore to clear the clientdata-pointer, remove all current
occurrences in the drivers to simplify the code and prevent confusion.

This adds three new types of kernel "crashes" in the lkdtm driver to
trigger hardlockups, softlockups and task hung states at will.
The first two are useful to test the new generic lockup detector and check
its further regressions. The latter one is a bonus to check the hung task
detector regressions even though it's not currently in rework.

Increase the portability of the at24 driver by letting it read from
EEPROM chips connected to cheap SMBus controllers that support neither
raw I2C messages nor even I2C block reads. All SMBus controllers
should support either word reads or byte reads, so read support
becomes universal, much like with the legacy "eeprom" driver.
Obviously, this only works with EEPROM chips up to AT24C16, that use
8-bit offset addressing. 16-bit offset addressing is almost impossible
to support on SMBus controllers.
I did not add universal support for writes, as I had no immediate need
for this, but it could be added later if needed (with the same
performance issue as byte and word reads have, of course.)

This is a standalone version of VMware Balloon driver. Ballooning is a
technique that allows hypervisor dynamically limit the amount of memory
available to the guest (with guest cooperation). In the overcommit
scenario, when hypervisor set detects that it needs to shuffle some
memory, it instructs the driver to allocate certain number of pages, and
the underlying memory gets returned to the hypervisor. Later hypervisor
may return memory to the guest by reattaching memory to the pageframes and
instructing the driver to "deflate" balloon.
We are submitting a standalone driver because KVM maintainer (Avi Kivity)
expressed opinion (rightly) that our transport does not fit well into
virtqueue paradigm and thus it does not make much sense to integrate with
virtio.
There were also some concerns whether current ballooning technique is the
right thing. If there appears a better framework to achieve this we are
prepared to evaluate and switch to using it, but in the meantime we'd like
to get this driver upstream.
We want to get the driver accepted in distributions so that users do not
have to deal with an out-of-tree module and many distributions have
"upstream first" requirement.
The driver has been shipping for a number of years and users running on
VMware platform will have it installed as part of VMware Tools even if it
will not come from a distribution, thus there should not be additional
risk in pulling the driver into mainline. The driver will only activate
if host is VMware so everyone else should not be affected at all.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Passing the attribute to the low level IO functions allows all kinds
of cleanups, by sharing low level IO code without requiring
an own function for every piece of data.
Also drivers can extend the attributes with own data fields
and use that in the low level function.
This makes the class attributes the same as sysdev_class attributes
and plain attributes.
This will allow further cleanups in drivers.
Full tree sweep converting all users.

Add adds a debugfs interface and additional failure modes to LKDTM to
provide similar functionality to the provoke-crash driver submitted here:
http://lwn.net/Articles/371208/
Crashes can now be induced either through module parameters (as before)
or through the debugfs interface as in provoke-crash.
The patch also provides a new "direct" interface, where KPROBES are not
used, i.e., the crash is invoked directly upon write to the debugfs
file. When built without KPROBES configured, only this mode is available.

The variable priv is initialized twice to the same (side effect-free)

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is:
