nbd: rename the nbd_device variable from lo to nbd

2012-03-29T00:14:37Z

rename the nbd_device variable from "lo" to "nbd", since "lo" is just a name copied from loop.c. Signed-off-by: Wanlong Gao Cc: Paul Clements Cc: Jens Axboe Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells: "Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion dependencies. I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis." Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it.. * tag 'split-asm_system_h-for-linus-20120328' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system: (38 commits) Delete all instances of asm/system.h Remove all #inclusions of asm/system.h Add #includes needed to permit the removal of asm/system.h Move all declarations of free_initmem() to linux/mm.h Disintegrate asm/system.h for OpenRISC Split arch_align_stack() out from asm-generic/system.h Split the switch_to() wrapper out of asm-generic/system.h Move the asm-generic/system.h xchg() implementation to asm-generic/cmpxchg.h Create asm-generic/barrier.h Make asm-generic/cmpxchg.h #include asm-generic/cmpxchg-local.h Disintegrate asm/system.h for Xtensa Disintegrate asm/system.h for Unicore32 [based on ver #3, changed by gxt] Disintegrate asm/system.h for Tile Disintegrate asm/system.h for Sparc Disintegrate asm/system.h for SH Disintegrate asm/system.h for Score Disintegrate asm/system.h for S390 Disintegrate asm/system.h for PowerPC Disintegrate asm/system.h for PA-RISC Disintegrate asm/system.h for MN10300 ...

Pull a few more things for powerpc by Benjamin Herrenschmidt: - Anton's did some recent improvements to EPOW event reporting on pSeries (power supply failures and such). The patches are self contained enough and replace really nasty code so I felt it should still go in - I did the vio driver registration change Greg requested, I don't see the point of leaving that til the next merge window - The remaining EEH changes I said were still pending to get rid of the EEH references from the generic struct device_node - A few more iSeries removal bits - A perf bug fix on 970 * 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: powerpc/perf: Fix instruction address sampling on 970 and Power4 powerpc+sparc/vio: Modernize driver registration powerpc: Random little legacy iSeries removal tidy ups powerpc: Remove NO_IRQ_IGNORE powerpc/pseries: Cut down on enthusiastic use of defines in RAS code powerpc/pseries: Clean up ras_error_interrupt code powerpc/pseries: Remove RTAS_POWERMGM_EVENTS powerpc/pseries: Use rtas_get_sensor in RAS code powerpc/pseries: Parse and handle EPOW interrupts powerpc: Make function that parses RTAS error logs global powerpc/eeh: Retrieve PHB from global list powerpc/eeh: Remove eeh information from pci_dn powerpc/eeh: Remove eeh device from OF node

Pull Ceph updates for 3.4-rc1 from Sage Weil: "Alex has been busy. There are a range of rbd and libceph cleanups, especially surrounding device setup and teardown, and a few critical fixes in that code. There are more cleanups in the messenger code, virtual xattrs, a fix for CRC calculation/checks, and lots of other miscellaneous stuff. There's a patch from Amon Ott to make inos behave a bit better on 32-bit boxes, some decode check fixes from Xi Wang, and network throttling fix from Jim Schutt, and a couple RBD fixes from Josh Durgin.

powerpc+sparc/vio: Modernize driver registration

2012-03-28T00:33:24Z

This makes vio_register_driver() get the module owner & name at compile time like PCI drivers do, and adds a name pointer directly in struct vio_driver to avoid having to explicitly initialize the embedded struct device. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Acked-by: David S. Miller
