* Add cpu_sysdev_class functions to display the following maps
with cpulist_scnprintf().
cpu_online_map
cpu_present_map
cpu_possible_map
* Small change to include/linux/sysdev.h to allow the attribute
name and label to be different (to avoid collision with the
"attr_online" entry for bringing cpus on- and off-line.)

All kobjects require a dynamically allocated name now. We no longer
need to keep track if the name is statically assigned, we can just
unconditionally free() all kobject names on cleanup.

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.
This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.
For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the

(tweaked by Greg to not delete the field just yet, to make it easier to
merge things properly.)

sysdev.h uses THIS_MODULE so should include <linux/module.h>.

Introduce _SYSDEV_ATTR(), to be used to just define the struct, and not a
named variable with the attribute. Useful for arrays of sysdev_attributes.

allow sysdev_class adding attribute. Next patch will use the new API to
add an attribute under /sys/device/system/cpu/.

I thought I'm done with fixing u32 vs. pm_message_t ... unfortunately
that turned out not to be the case as Russel King pointed out. Here are
fixes for Documentation and common code (mainly system devices).

sys_xyz() names in Linux are all syscalls... except for
sys_device_register() and sys_device_unregister().
This patch renames them so that the sys_ namespace is once
again used only by syscalls.

- From conversations with Ben Herrenschmidt.
Most devices should be able to handle powering down with interrupts enabled,
which I already assume. But since suspending will stop I/O transactions
before the call to power it off (making the device unusable anyway), there
is no need to separate the calls - we may as well make it simpler for
driver authors and require that driver authors do everything at the same
time.
There will always be devices that need to either power down or power up the
device with interrupts disabled. They will get called with interrupts
enabled, but may return -EAGAIN to be called again with interrupts disabled
to do what they need to do.
System devices are now always called only with interrupts disabled. Come
on - they're system devices. Of course we need interrupts disabled.

It was added by accident from another patch and is redundant with
struct sys_device::kobj.entry.
|

From Jeremy Fitzhardinge:
With the current system device changes (I picked them up in 2.5.70-mm8),
the system device class assumes that all system device drivers are
registered before any system devices are registered.
Unfortunately, this is often not the case. CPU devices are registered
very early, but cpufreq registers drivers for them; since cpufreq
drivers can be loaded as modules, they clearly can't be registered
before the device is.
This patch keeps a list of all registered devices hanging off the system
device class. When a new driver is registered, it calls the driver's
add() function with all existing devices.
Conversely, when a driver is unregistered, it calls the driver's
remove() function for all existing devices so the driver can clean up.
Note: the list in the class's embedded kset is used, rather than creating
a new field.

It turns out that at least some system device drivers need to allocate
memory and/or sleep for one reason or another when either saving or
restoring state.
Instead of adding a 'level' paramter to the suspend() and resume() methods,
which I despise and think is a horrible programming interface, two new
methods have been added to struct sysdev_driver:
int (*save)(struct sys_device *, u32 state);
int (*restore)(struct sys_device *);
that are called explicitly before and after suspend() and resume()
respectively, with interrupts enabled. This gives the drivers the
flexibility to allocate memory and sleep, if necessary.

Split out all system device definitions from device.h into their own header
sysdev.h
Define struct sysdev_attribute and define functions to export attributes
in sysfs.
