4e10d12a3d [ACPI] Bind PCI devices with ACPI devices
Implement the framework for binding physical devices
with ACPI devices. A physical bus like PCI bus
should create a 'acpi_bus_type', with:

.find_device:
        For device which has parent such as normal PCI devices.

.find_bridge:
        It's for special devices, such as PCI root bridge
	or IDE controller.  Such devices generally haven't a
	parent or ->bus. We use the special method
	to get an ACPI handle.

Uses new field in struct device: firmware_data

23d3d602cb [PATCH] driver core: change bus_rescan_devices to return void
No one was looking at the return value of bus_rescan_devices, and it
really wasn't anything that anyone in the kernel would ever care about.
So change it which enabled some counting code to be removed also.

0edb586049 [PATCH] driver core: add bus_find_device & driver_find_device functions
Add bus_find_device() and driver_find_device() which allow searching for a
device in the bus's resp. the driver's klist and obtain a reference on it.

54b6f35c99 [PATCH] Driver core: change device_attribute callbacks
This patch adds the device_attribute paramerter to the
device_attribute store and show sysfs callback functions, and passes a
reference to the attribute when the callbacks are called.

0d3e5a2e39 [PATCH] Driver Core: fix bk-driver-core kills ppc64
There's no check to see if the device is already bound to a driver, which
could do bad things.  The first thing to go wrong is that it will try to match
a driver with a device already bound to one.  In some cases (it appears with
USB with drivers/usb/core/usb.c::usb_match_id()), some drivers will match a
device based on the class type, so it would be common (especially for HID
devices) to match a device that is already bound.

The fun comes when ->probe() is called, it fails, then
driver_probe_device() does this:

	dev->driver = NULL;

Later on, that pointer could be be dereferenced without checking and cause
hell to break loose.

This problem could be nasty. It's very hardware dependent, since some
devices could have a different set of matching qualifiers than others.

Now, I don't quite see exactly where/how you were getting that crash.
You're dereferencing bad memory, but I'm not sure which pointer was bad
and where it came from, but it could have come from a couple of different
places.

The patch below will hopefully fix it all up for you. It's against
2.6.12-rc2-mm1, and does the following:

- Move logic to driver_probe_device() and comments uncommon returns:
  1 - If device is bound
  0 - If device not bound, and no error
  error - If there was an error.

- Move locking to caller of that function, since we want to lock a
  device for the entire time we're trying to bind it to a driver (to
  prevent against a driver being loaded at the same time).

- Update __device_attach() and __driver_attach() to do that locking.

- Check if device is already bound in __driver_attach()

- Update the converse device_release_driver() so it locks the device
  around all of the operations.

- Mark driver_probe_device() as static and remove export. It's an
  internal function, it should stay that way, and there are no other
  callers. If there is ever a need to export it, we can audit it as
  necessary.

94e7b1c5ff [PATCH] Add a klist to struct device_driver for the devices bound to it.
- Use it in driver_for_each_device() instead of the regular list_head and stop using
  the bus's rwsem for protection.
- Use driver_for_each_device() in driver_detach() so we don't deadlock on the
  bus's rwsem.
- Remove ->devices.
- Move klist access and sysfs link access out from under device's semaphore, since
  they're synchronized through other means.

af70316af1 [PATCH] Add a semaphore to struct device to synchronize calls to its driver.
This adds a per-device semaphore that is taken before every call from the core to a
driver method. This prevents e.g. simultaneous calls to the ->suspend() or ->resume()
and ->probe() or ->release(), potentially saving a whole lot of headaches.

It also moves us a step closer to removing the bus rwsem, since it protects the fields
in struct device that are modified by the core.

0b405a0f7e [PATCH] Driver Core: remove driver model detach_state
The driver model has a "detach_state" mechanism that:

 - Has never been used by any in-kernel drive;
 - Is superfluous, since driver remove() methods can do the same thing;
 - Became buggy when the suspend() parameter changed semantics and type;
 - Could self-deadlock when called from certain suspend contexts;
 - Is effectively wasted documentation, object code, and headspace.

This removes that "detach_state" mechanism; net code shrink, as well
as a per-device saving in the driver model and sysfs.

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
