The asus-laptop driver implements a number of interfaces like the
backlight class driver. This change makes it easier to examine the
implementation of one interface at at a time, without having to search
through the file to find init() and exit() functions etc.

(Changelog stolen from Alan's patch for eeepc-laptop, but this patch
does the same thing for asus-laptop)
Callback methods should not refer to a variable like "asus" (formally
"hotk"). Instead, they should extract the data they need either from
a "driver data" parameter, or the "driver data" field of the object
which they operate on. The "asus" variable can then be removed.
In practice, drivers under "drivers/platform" can get away without using
driver data, because it doesn't make sense to have more than one
instance of them. However this makes it harder to review them for
correctness. This is especially true for core ACPI developers who have
not previously been exposed to this anti-pattern :-).
This will serve as an example of best practice for new driver writers
(whether they find it themselves, or have it pointed out during review
:-).

asus-laptop now does a lot more than just hotkeys. Replace the "hotk"
names used throughout the driver with some slightly more appropriate
names. The actual strings used in kernel messages and sysfs are left

Fix up trivial conflicts in kernel/sched.c
Before we mark the wireless device as unplugged, check PCI config space
to see whether the wireless device is really disabled (and vice versa).
This works around newer models which don't want the hotplug code, where
we end up disabling the wired network device.
My old 701 still works correctly with this. I can also simulate an
afflicted model by changing the hardcoded PCI bus/slot number in the
driver, and it seems to work nicely (although it is a bit noisy).
In future this type of hotplug support will be implemented by the PCI
core. The existing blacklist and the new warning message will be
removed at that point.

If an object is referenced by a directory but does not
exist on a target, it is a very serious corruption that
means:
1. Either a power failure with very slim chance of it
happening. Because the directory update is always submitted
much after object creation, but if a directory is written
to one device and the object creation to another it might
theoretically happen.
2. It only ever happened to me while developing with BUGs
causing file corruption. Crashes could also cause it but
they are more like case 1.
In any way the object does not exist, so data is surely lost.
If there is a mix-up in the obj-id or data-map, then lost objects
can be salvaged by off-line fsck. The only recoverable information
is the directory name. By letting it appear as a regular empty file,
with date==0 (1970 Jan 1st) ownership to root, we enable recovery
of the only useful information. And also enable deletion or over-write.
I can see how this can hurt.

* inode.c operations are full-pages based, and not actually

* Lets us use more pages at once upto 512 (from 249) in 64 bit
* Brings us much much closer to be able to use exofs's io_state engine
from objlayout driver. (Once I decide where to put the common code)
After RAID0 patch the outer (input) bio was never used as a bio, but
was simply a page carrier into the raid engine. Even in the simple
mirror/single-dev arrangement pages info was copied into a second bio.
It is now easer to just pass a pages array into the io_state and prepare
bio(s) once.

We now support striping over mirror devices. Including variable sized
stripe_unit.
Some limits:
* stripe_unit must be a multiple of PAGE_SIZE
* stripe_unit * stripe_count is maximum upto 32-bit (4Gb)
Tested RAID0 over mirrors, RAID0 only, mirrors only. All check.
Design notes:
* I'm not using a vectored raid-engine mechanism yet. Following the
pnfs-objects-layout data-map structure, "Mirror" is just a private
case of "group_width" == 1, and RAID0 is a private case of
"Mirrors" == 1. The performance lose of the general case over the
particular special case optimization is totally negligible, also
considering the extra code size.
* In general I added a prepare_stripes() stage that divides the
to-be-io pages to the participating devices, the previous
exofs_ios_write/read, now becomes _write/read_mirrors and a new
write/read upper layer loops on all devices calling
_write/read_mirrors. Effectively the prepare_stripes stage is the all
secret.
Also truncate need fixing to accommodate for striping.
* In a RAID0 arrangement, in a regular usage scenario, if all inode
layouts will start at the same device, the small files fill up the
first device and the later devices stay empty, the farther the device
the emptier it is.
To fix that, each inode will start at a different stripe_unit,
according to it's obj_id modulus number-of-stripe-units. And
will then span all stripe-units in the same incrementing order
wrapping back to the beginning of the device table. We call it
a stripe-units moving window.
Special consideration was taken to keep all devices in a mirror
arrangement identical. So a broken osd-device could just be cloned
from one of the mirrors and no FS scrubbing is needed. (We do that
by rotating stripe-unit at a time and not a single device at a time.)
TODO:
We no longer verify object_length == inode->i_size in exofs_iget.
(since i_size is stripped on multiple objects now).
I should introduce a multiple-device attribute reading, and use
it in exofs_iget.

* Layouts describe the way a file is spread on multiple devices.
The layout information is stored in the objects attribute introduced
in this patch.
* There can be multiple generating function for the layout.
Currently defined:
- No attribute present - use below moving-window on global
device table, all devices.
(This is the only one currently used in exofs)
- an obj_id generated moving window - the obj_id is a randomizing
factor in the otherwise global map layout.
- An explicit layout stored, including a data_map and a device
index list.
- More might be defined in future ...
* There are two attributes defined of the same structure:
A-data-files-layout - This layout is used by data-files. If present
at a directory, all files of that directory will
be created with this layout.
A-meta-data-layout - This layout is used by a directory and other
meta-data information. Also inherited at creation
of subdirectories.
* At creation time inodes are created with the layout specified above.
A usermode utility may change the creation layout on a give directory
or file. Which in the case of directories, will also apply to newly
created files/subdirectories, children of that directory.
In the simple unaltered case of a newly created exofs, no layout
attributes are present, and all layouts adhere to the layout specified
at the device-table.
* In case of a future file system loaded in an old exofs-driver.
At iget(), the generating_function is inspected and if not supported
will return an IO error to the application and the inode will not
be loaded. So not to damage any data.
Note: After this patch we do not yet support any type of layout
only the RAID0 patch that enables striping at the super-block
level will add support for RAID0 layouts above. This way we
are past and future compatible and fully bisectable.
* Access to the device table is done by an accessor since
it will change according to above information.
