5788d8ad6c slub: release kobject if sysfs_create_group failed in sysfs_slab_add
When CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is enabled, sysfs_slab_add should unlink and put the
kobject if sysfs_create_group failed. Otherwise, sysfs_slab_add returns error
then free kmem_cache s, thus memory of s->kobj is leaked.

b04b65ab5b OMAP2/3/4 core: create omap_device layer
The omap_device code provides a mapping of omap_hwmod structures into
the platform_device system, and includes some details on external
(board-level) integration.  This allows drivers to enable, idle, and
shutdown on-chip device resources, including clocks, regulators, etc.
The resources enabled and idled are dependent on the device's maximum
wakeup latency constraint (if present).

At the moment, omap_device functions are intended to be called from
platform_data function pointers.  Ideally in the future these
functions will be called from either subarchitecture-specific
platform_data activate, deactivate functions, or via an custom
bus/device type for OMAP.

63c8523841 OMAP2/3/4: create omap_hwmod layer
OMAP SoCs can be considered a collection of hardware IP blocks
connected by various interconnects.  The bus topology and device
integration data is somewhat more complex than platform_device can
encode.  This patch creates code and structures to manage information
about OMAP on-chip devices ("hardware modules") and their integration
to the rest of the chip.  Hardware module data is intended to be
generated dynamically from the TI hardware database for the OMAP4
chips and beyond, easing Linux support for new chip variants.

This code currently:

- resets and configures all hardware modules upon startup, reducing bootloader
  dependencies;

- provides hooks for Linux driver model code to enable, idle, and shutdown
  hardware modules (forthcoming patch);

- waits for hardware modules to leave idle once their clocks
  are enabled and OCP_SYSCONFIG bits are set appropriately.

- provides a means to pass arbitrary IP block configuration data (e.g.,
  FIFO size) to the device driver (via the dev_attr void pointer)

In the future this code is intended to:

- estimate interconnect bandwidth and latency characteristics to
  ensure constraints are satisfied during DVFS

- provide *GRPSEL bit data to the powerdomain code

- handle pin/ball muxing for devices

- generate IO mapping information dynamically

- supply device firewall configuration data

- provide hardware module data to other on-chip coprocessor software

- allow the removal of the "disable unused clocks" code in the OMAP2/3
  clock code

This patch represents a collaborative effort involving many people from TI,
Nokia, and the Linux-OMAP community.

b3c6df3ab2 OMAP2/3 board-*.c files: read bootloader configuration earlier
Most board-*.c files read configuration data from the bootloader in
their .init_machine() function.  This needs to happen earlier, at some
point before omap2_init_common_hw() is called.  This is because a
future patch will use the bootloader serial console port information
to enable the UART clocks earlier, immediately after omap2_clk_init().
This is in turn necessary since otherwise clock tree usecounts on
clocks like dpll4_m2x2_ck will be bogus, which can cause the
currently-active console UART clock to be disabled during boot.

71348bcaac OMAP2/3/4 PRCM: add module IDLEST wait code
After a hardware module's clocks are enabled, Linux must wait for it
to indicate readiness via its IDLEST bit before attempting to access
the device, otherwise register accesses to the device may trigger an
abort.  This has traditionally been implemented in the clock
framework, but this is the wrong place for it: the clock framework
doesn't know which module clocks must be enabled for a module to leave
idle; and if a module is not in smart-idle mode, it may never leave
idle at all.  This type of information is best stored in a
per-hardware module data structure (coming in a following patch),
rather than a per-clock data structure.  The new code will use these new
functions to handle waiting for modules to enable.

Once hardware module data is filled in for all of the on-chip devices,
the clock framework code to handle IDLEST waiting can be removed.

5d113262ee OMAP: powerdomain: Fix overflow when doing powerdomain deps lookups.
At the end of the list pd is a pointer to a NULL struct, so checking
if the address == NULL doesn't help here. In fact the original code
will just keep running past the struct to read who knows what in
memory.

This case manifests itself when from clkdms_setup() when enabling auto
idle for a clock domain and the clockdomain usecount is greater than
0. When _clkdm_add_autodeps() tries to add the a dependency that does
not exist in the powerdomain->wkdep_srcs array the for loop will run
past the wkdep_srcs array.

Currently in linux-omap you won't hit this because the not found case
is never executed, unless you start modifying powerdomains and their
wakeup/sleep deps.

b142037b4c ALSA: dummy - Better jiffies handling
In the system-timer mode, snd-dummy driver issues each tick to update
the position.  This is highly inefficient and even inaccurate if the
timer can't be triggered at each tick.

Now rewritten to wake up only at the period boundary.  The position
is calculated from the current jiffies.
