The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a
while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the
Linux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs.

Convert omap_wdt to new watchdog core. On OMAP boards, there are usually
multiple watchdogs. Since the new watchdog core supports multiple
watchdogs, all watchdog drivers used on OMAP should be converted.
The legacy watchdog device node is still created, so this should not
break existing users.

With device tree support in place, we should not use IMX_HAVE_PLATFORM_IMX2_WDT
as a dependency for selecting the imx2_wdt driver.
Use ARCH_MXC symbol instead, so that the driver can be even selected by a device-tree
only SoC, such as i.MX6.

As a first step towards migrating davinci platforms to use common clock
framework, replace all instances of clk_enable() with clk_prepare_enable()
and clk_disable() with clk_disable_unprepare(). Until the platform is
switched to use the CONFIG_HAVE_CLK_PREPARE Kconfig variable, this just
adds a might_sleep() call and would work without any issues.
This will make it easy later to switch to common clk based implementation
of clk driver from DaVinci specific driver.

Clk_prepare_enable and clk_disable_unprepare combine clk_prepare and
clk_enable, and clk_disable and clk_unprepare. They make the code more
concise, and ensure that clk_unprepare is called when clk_enable fails.
A simplified version of the semantic patch that introduces calls to these
functions is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>

This renames all random32 functions to have 'prandom_' prefix as follows:
void prandom_seed(u32 seed); /* rename from srandom32() */
u32 prandom_u32(void); /* rename from random32() */
void prandom_seed_state(struct rnd_state *state, u64 seed);
/* rename from prandom32_seed() */
u32 prandom_u32_state(struct rnd_state *state);
/* rename from prandom32() */
The purpose of this renaming is to prevent some kernel developers from
assuming that prandom32() and random32() might imply that only
prandom32() was the one using a pseudo-random number generator by
prandom32's "p", and the result may be a very embarassing security
exposure. This concern was expressed by Theodore Ts'o.
And furthermore, I'm going to introduce new functions for getting the
requested number of pseudo-random bytes. If I continue to use both
prandom32 and random32 prefixes for these functions, the confusion
is getting worse.
As a result of this renaming, "prandom_" is the common prefix for
pseudo-random number library.
Currently, srandom32() and random32() are preserved because it is
difficult to rename too many users at once.

By default, the aoe driver uses any ethernet interface for AoE, but the
aoe_iflist module parameter provides a convenient way to limit AoE
traffic to a specific list of local network interfaces.
This change allows a list to be specified using the comma character as a
separator. For example,
modprobe aoe aoe_iflist=eth2,eth3
Before, it was inconvenient to get the quoting right in shell scripts
when setting aoe_iflist to have more than one network interface.

With this change, the aoe driver treats the value zero as special for
the aoe_deadsecs module parameter. Normally, this value specifies the
number of seconds during which the driver will continue to attempt
retransmits to an unresponsive AoE target. After aoe_deadsecs has
elapsed, the aoe driver marks the aoe device as "down" and fails all
I/O.
The new meaning of an aoe_deadsecs of zero is for the driver to
retransmit commands indefinitely.

Many AoE targets have four or fewer network ports, but some existing
storage devices have many, and the AoE protocol sets no limit.
This patch allows the use of more than eight remote MAC addresses per AoE
target, while reducing the amount of memory used by the aoe driver in
cases where there are many AoE targets with fewer than eight MAC addresses
each.

This change avoids a race that could result in a NULL pointer derference
following a WARNing from kobject_add_internal, "don't try to register
things with the same name in the same directory."
The problem was found with a test that forgets and discovers an
aoe device in a loop:
while test ! -r /tmp/stop; do
aoe-flush -a
aoe-discover
done
The race was between aoedev_flush taking aoedevs out of the devlist,
allowing a new discovery of the same AoE target to take place before the
driver gets around to calling sysfs_remove_group. Fixing that one
revealed another race between do_open and add_disk, and this patch avoids
that, too.
The fix required some care, because for flushing (forgetting) an aoedev,
some of the steps must be performed under lock and some must be able to
sleep. Also, for discovering a new aoedev, some steps might sleep.
The check for a bad aoedev pointer remains from a time when about half of
this patch was done, and it was possible for the
bdev->bd_disk->private_data to become corrupted. The check should be
removed eventually, but it is not expected to add significant overhead,
occurring in the aoeblk_open routine.

An AoE target can have multiple network ports used for AoE, and in the
aoe driver, those are tracked by the aoetgt struct. These changes allow
the aoe driver to handle network paths, or aoetgts, that are not working
well, compared to the others.
Paths that do not get responses despite the retransmission of AoE
commands are marked as "tainted", and non-tainted paths are preferred.
Meanwhile, the aoe driver attempts to "probe" the tainted path in the
background by issuing reads of LBA 0 that are padded out to full
(possibly jumbo-frame) size. If the probes get responses, then the path
is "redeemed", and its taint is removed.
This mechanism has been shown to be helpful in transparently handling
and recovering from real-world network "brown outs" in ways that the
earlier "shoot the help-needing target in the head" mechanism could not.

The value returned by the static minor device number number allocator is
the real minor number, so it must be multiplied by the supported number
of partitions per aoedev.
Without this fix the support for systems without udev is incomplete, and
the few users of aoe on such systems will have surprising results when
device nodes names do not match the AoE target.

Because the minor_get and related functions use the return values for
errors, the compiler doesn't know that sysminor will always either 1) be
initialized in aoedev_by_aoeaddr by the call to minor_get, or 2) be
unused as the "goto out" is executed.
This patch avoids the compiler warning.

There is no need to call the request handler function in the I/O

The aoe driver will never be waiting for more than aoe_maxout AoE
commands from a given remote network port on an AoE target. Increasing
the cap increases performance. Users can tighten the setting to reduce
the amount of memory used for handling AoE traffic or the network
bandwidth used for AoE.

Before the aoe driver was an I/O request handler, it was a
make_request-style block driver. Even so, there was a problem where
sysfs expected a request queue to exist, so one was provided in commit
7135a71b19be ("aoe: allocate unused request_queue for sysfs").
During the transition to the request-handler style, a patch was merged
that was based on a driver without the noop queue, and the noop queue
remained in place after the patch was merged, even though a new
functional queue was introduced by the patch, allocated through
blk_init_queue.
The user impact is a memory leak proportional to the number of AoE
targets discovered. This patch removes the memory leak and cleans up
vestiges of the old do-nothing queue from the aoeblk_gdalloc function.

Commit f3b8e07af774 ("aoe: commands in retransmit queue use new
destination on failure") omits the copying of the coarse-grained time
when an AoE command was sent during the failover from one destination
MAC address on the AoE target to another.
The coarse-grained timing is only used when the system time changes or
an unlikely length of time has passed since the sending of the AoE
command. Users will not be impacted unless their system clock is very
inaccurate or something unusual (e.g., 10 GbE link reset) happens during
the period when the aoe driver is handling the failure of a port on the
AoE target. Being effected will mean that an AoE target could be
considered "down" too eagerly.

When one remote MAC address isn't working as a destination for AoE
commands, the frames used to track information associated with the AoE
commands are moved to a new aoetgt (defined by the tuple of {AoE major,
AoE minor, target MAC address}).
This patch makes sure that the frames on the queue for retransmits that
need to be done are updated to use the new destination, so that
retransmits will be sent through a working network path.
Without this change, packets on the retransmit queue will be needlessly
retransmitted to the unresponsive destination MAC, possibly causing
premature target failure before there's time for the retransmit timer to
run again, decide to retransmit again, and finally update the destination
to a working MAC address on the AoE target.
