Devices sometimes have memory where all or parts of it can not be mapped to
userspace. But it might still be possible to access this memory from
userspace by other means. An example are PCI cards that advertise not only
mappable memory but also ioport ranges. On x86 architectures, these can be
accessed with ioperm, iopl, inb, outb, and friends. Mike Frysinger (CCed)
reported a similar problem on Blackfin arch where it doesn't seem to be easy
to mmap non-cached memory but it can still be accessed from userspace.
This patch allows kernel drivers to pass information about such ports to
userspace. Similar to the existing mem[] array, it adds a port[] array to
struct uio_info. Each port range is described by start, size, and porttype.
If a driver fills in at least one such port range, the UIO core will simply
pass this information to userspace by creating a new directory "portio"
underneath /sys/class/uio/uioN/. Similar to the "mem" directory, it will
contain a subdirectory (portX) for each port range given.
Note that UIO simply passes this information to userspace, it performs no
action whatsoever with this data. It's userspace's responsibility to obtain
access to these ports and to solve arch dependent issues. The "porttype"
attribute tells userspace what kind of port it is dealing with.
This mechanism could also be used to give userspace information about GPIOs
related to a device. You frequently find such hardware in embedded devices,
so I added a UIO_PORT_GPIO definition. I'm not really sure if this is a good
idea since there are other solutions to this problem, but it won't hurt much
anyway.

I can't think of a reason why the driver prevents people from setting any
custom bits in their platform device, but I can think of some reasons for
allowing custom flags. Like setting the IRQF_TRIGGER_... bits.

Use the newly introduced pci_ioremap_bar() function in drivers/uio.
pci_ioremap_bar() just takes a pci device and a bar number, with the goal
of making it really hard to get wrong, while also having a central place
to stick sanity checks.

Add support for allocating root device objects which group
device objects under /sys/devices directories.
Also add a sysfs 'module' symlink which points to the owner
of the root device object. This symlink will be used in virtio
to allow userspace to determine which virtio bus implementation
a given device is associated with.

Rework the handling of suspend and resume of PCI devices which have
no drivers or the drivers of which do not provide any suspend-resume
callbacks in such a way that their standard PCI configuration
registers will be saved and restored with interrupts disabled. This
should prevent such devices, including PCI bridges, from being
resumed too late to be able to function correctly during the resume
of the other PCI devices that may depend on them.
Also, to remove one possible source of future confusion, drop the
default handling of suspend and resume for PCI devices with drivers
providing the 'pm' object introduced by the new suspend-resume
framework (there are no such PCI drivers at the moment).
This patch addresses the regression from 2.6.26 tracked as
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12121 .

PM: Simplify the new suspend/hibernation framework for devices
Following the discussion at the Kernel Summit, simplify the new
device PM framework by merging 'struct pm_ops' and
'struct pm_ext_ops' and removing pointers to 'struct pm_ext_ops'
from 'struct platform_driver' and 'struct pci_driver'.
After this change, the suspend/hibernation callbacks will only
reside in 'struct device_driver' as well as at the bus type/
device class/device type level. Accordingly, PCI and platform
device drivers are now expected to put their suspend/hibernation
callbacks into the 'struct device_driver' embedded in
'struct pci_driver' or 'struct platform_driver', respectively.

Implement simple read-only sysfs entry for device-mapper block device.
This patch adds a simple sysfs directory named "dm" under block device
properties and implements
- name attribute (string containing mapped device name)
- uuid attribute (string containing UUID, or empty string if not set)
The kobject is embedded in mapped_device struct, so no additional
memory allocation is needed for initializing sysfs entry.
During the processing of sysfs attribute we need to lock mapped device
which is done by a new function dm_get_from_kobj, which returns the md
associated with kobject and increases the usage count.
Each 'show attribute' function is responsible for its own locking.

Rework table reference counting.
The existing code uses a reference counter. When the last reference is
dropped and the counter reaches zero, the table destructor is called.
Table reference counters are acquired/released from upcalls from other
kernel code (dm_any_congested, dm_merge_bvec, dm_unplug_all).
If the reference counter reaches zero in one of the upcalls, the table
destructor is called from almost random kernel code.
This leads to various problems:
* dm_any_congested being called under a spinlock, which calls the
destructor, which calls some sleeping function.
* the destructor attempting to take a lock that is already taken by the
same process.
* stale reference from some other kernel code keeps the table
constructed, which keeps some devices open, even after successful
return from "dmsetup remove". This can confuse lvm and prevent closing
of underlying devices or reusing device minor numbers.
The patch changes reference counting so that the table destructor can be
called only at predetermined places.
The table has always exactly one reference from either mapped_device->map
or hash_cell->new_map. After this patch, this reference is not counted
in table->holders. A pair of dm_create_table/dm_destroy_table functions
is used for table creation/destruction.
Temporary references from the other code increase table->holders. A pair
of dm_table_get/dm_table_put functions is used to manipulate it.
When the table is about to be destroyed, we wait for table->holders to
reach 0. Then, we call the table destructor. We use active waiting with
msleep(1), because the situation happens rarely (to one user in 5 years)
and removing the device isn't performance-critical task: the user doesn't
care if it takes one tick more or not.
This way, the destructor is called only at specific points
(dm_table_destroy function) and the above problems associated with lazy
destruction can't happen.
Finally remove the temporary protection added to dm_any_congested().

Implement barrier support for single device DM devices
This patch implements barrier support in DM for the common case of dm linear
just remapping a single underlying device. In this case we can safely
pass the barrier through because there can be no reordering between
devices.
NB. Any DM device might cease to support barriers if it gets
reconfigured so code must continue to allow for a possible
-EOPNOTSUPP on every barrier bio submitted. - agk
