Emese Revfy 52cf25d0ab Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type
Constify struct sysfs_ops.

This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

Benefits of this constification:

 * prevents modification of data that is shared
   (referenced) by many other structure instances
   at runtime

 * detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
   modification attempts on archs that enforce
   read-only kernel data at runtime

 * potentially better optimized code as the compiler
   can assume that the const data cannot be changed

 * the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
   and therefore exclude them from false sharing

Greg Kroah-Hartman c10997f657 Kobject: convert drivers/* from kobject_unregister() to kobject_put()
There is no need for kobject_unregister() anymore, thanks to Kay's
kobject cleanup changes, so replace all instances of it with
kobject_put().

Greg Kroah-Hartman b2ed215a33 Kobject: change drivers/edac to use kobject_init_and_add
Stop using kobject_register, as this way we can control the sending of
the uevent properly, after everything is properly initialized.

Doug Thompson b2a4ac0c28 drivers/edac: fix edac_device sysfs corner case bug
Some simple fixes to properly reference counter values from the block
attribute level of edac_device objects.  Properly sequencing the array pointer
was added, resulting in correct identification of block level attributes from
their base class functions.

Added more verbose debug statement for event tracking.

Also during some corner testing, found a bug in the store/show sequence
of operations for the block attribute/controls management.

An old intermediate structure for 'blocks' was still in the processing
pipeline.  This patch removes that old structure and correctly utilizes the
new struct edac_dev_sysfs_block_attribute for passing control from the sysfs
to the low level store/show function of the edac driver.

Now the proper kobj pointer to passed downward to the store/show
functions.

Douglas Thompson fd309a9d8e drivers/edac: fix leaf sysfs attribute
This patch fixes and enhances the driver level set of sysfs attributes that
can be added to the 'block' level of an edac_device type of driver.

There is a controller information structure, which contains one or more
instances of device.  Each instance will have one or more blocks of device
specific counters.  This patch fixes the ability to have more detailed
attributes/controls for each of the 'blocks', providing for the addition of
controls/attributes from the low level driver to user space via sysfs.

Douglas Thompson 052dfb45cc drivers/edac: cleanup spaces-gotos after Lindent messup
This patch fixes some remnant spaces inserted by the use of Lindent.
Seems Lindent adds some spaces when it shoulded. These have been fixed.
In addition, goto targets have issues, these have been fixed
in this patch.

Douglas Thompson e27e3dac65 drivers/edac: add edac_device class
This patch adds the new 'class' of object to be managed, named: 'edac_device'.

As a peer of the 'edac_mc' class of object, it provides a non-memory centric
view of an ERROR DETECTING device in hardware. It provides a sysfs interface
and an abstraction for varioius EDAC type devices.

Multiple 'instances' within the class are possible, with each 'instance'
able to have multiple 'blocks', and each 'block' having 'attributes'.

At the 'block' level there are the 'ce_count' and 'ue_count' fields
which the device driver can update and/or call edac_device_handle_XX()
functions. At each higher level are additional 'total' count fields,
which are a summation of counts below that level.

This 'edac_device' has been used to capture and present ECC errors
which are found in a a L1 and L2 system on a per CORE/CPU basis.
