e0626e3844 spi: prefix modalias with "spi:"
This makes it consistent with other buses (platform, i2c, vio, ...).  I'm
not sure why we use the prefixes, but there must be a reason.

This was easy enough to do it, and I did it.

75368bf6c2 spi: add support for device table matching
With this patch spi drivers can use standard spi_driver.id_table and
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() mechanisms to bind against the devices.  Just like
we do with I2C drivers.

This is useful when a single driver supports several variants of devices
but it is not possible to detect them in run-time (like non-JEDEC chips
probing in drivers/mtd/devices/m25p80.c), and when platform_data usage is
overkill.

This patch also makes life a lot easier on OpenFirmware platforms, since
with OF we extensively use proper device IDs in modaliases.

a9ece53c40 kallsyms: fix segfault in prefix_underscores_count()
Commit b478b782e1 "kallsyms, tracing: output
more proper symbol name" introduces a "bugfix" that introduces a segfault
in kallsyms in my configurations.

The cause is the introduction of prefix_underscores_count() which attempts
to count underscores, even in symbols that do not have them.  As a result,
it just uselessly runs past the end of the buffer until it crashes:

  CC      init/version.o
  LD      init/built-in.o
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
  KSYM    .tmp_kallsyms1.S
/bin/sh: line 1: 16934 Done                    sh-linux-gnu-nm -n .tmp_vmlinux1
     16935 Segmentation fault      | scripts/kallsyms > .tmp_kallsyms1.S
make: *** [.tmp_kallsyms1.S] Error 139

This simplifies the logic and just does a straightforward count.

b781655a6f scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add maintainers in order listed in matched section
Previous behavior was "bottom-up" in each section from the pattern "F:"
entry that matched.  Now information is entered into the various lists in
the "as entered" order for each matched section.

This also allows the F: entry to be put anywhere in a section, not just as
the last entries in the section.

And a couple of improvements:

Don't alphabetically sort before outputting the matched scm, status,
subsystem and web sections.

Ignore content after a single email address so these entries are acceptable
M:	name <address> whatever other comment

And a fix:

Make an M: entry without a name again use the name from an immediately
preceding P: line if it exists.

3fb55652b9 scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add --pattern-depth
--pattern-depth is used to control how many levels of directory traversal
should be performed to find maintainers.  default is 0 (all directory levels).

For instance:

MAINTAINERS currently has multiple M: and F: entries that match
net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_app.c

IPVS
M:	Wensong Zhang <wensong@linux-vs.org>
M:	Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>

[...]

[...]
F:	net/netfilter/

M:	"David S. Miller" <davem@davemloft.net>
[...]
F:	net/

THE REST
M:	Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
[...]
F:	*/

Using this command will return all of those maintainers:
(except Linus unless --git-chief-maintainers is specified)

$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nogit -nol \
	-f net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_app.c
Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg>
Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
Wensong Zhang <wensong@linux-vs.org>
Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Adding --pattern-depth=1 will match at the deepest level
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nogit -nol --pattern-depth=1 \
	-f net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_app.c
Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg>
Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
Wensong Zhang <wensong@linux-vs.org>

Adding --pattern-depth=2 will match at the deepest level and 1 higher

1d606b4e0b scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add sections in pattern match depth order
Before this change, matched sections were added in the order
of appearance in the normally alphabetic section order of
the MAINTAINERS file.

For instance, finding the maintainer for drivers/scsi/wd7000.c
would first find "SCSI SUBSYSTEM", then "WD7000 SCSI SUBSYSTEM",
then "THE REST".

before patch:

$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nogit -f drivers/scsi/wd7000.c
James E.J. Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>
Miroslav Zagorac <zaga@fly.cc.fer.hr>
linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org

get_maintainer.pl now selects matched sections by longest pattern match.
Longest is the number of "/"s and any specific file pattern.

This changes the example output order of MAINTAINERS to whatever is
selected in "WD7000 SUBSYSTEM", then "SCSI SYSTEM", then "THE REST".

after patch:

$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nogit -f drivers/scsi/wd7000.c
Miroslav Zagorac <zaga@fly.cc.fer.hr>

f5492666a3 scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add --git-blame
Julia Lawall suggested that get_maintainers.pl should have the
ability to include signatories of commits that are modified by
a particular patch.

Vegard Nossum did something similar once.
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/29/449

The modified script looks the commits for all lines in the
patch, and includes the "-by:" signatories for those commits.
It uses the same git-min-percent, git-max-maintainers, and
git-min-signatures options.  git-since is ignored.

It can be used independently from the --git default, so
        ./scripts/get_maintainers.pl --nogit --git-blame <patch>
or
        ./scripts/get_maintainers.pl --nogit --git-blame -f <file>
is acceptable.

If used with -f <file>, all lines/commits for the file are
checked.

--git-blame can be slow if used with -f <file>
--git-blame does not work with -f <directory>

09d3f3f0e0 sparc: Kill PROM console driver.
Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these
days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it
in any situation.

Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a
bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary.

If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of
depending upon this crutch to save us.  We've been able to take care
of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500)

48586218b6 kconfig: add missing dependency of conf to localyesconfig
There's a dependency missing.

$ make localyesconfig
  HOSTCC  scripts/basic/fixdep
  HOSTCC  scripts/basic/docproc
  HOSTCC  scripts/basic/hash
using config: '/boot/config-2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.x86_64'
/bin/sh: line 8: scripts/kconfig/conf: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [localyesconfig] Error 127
make: *** [localyesconfig] Error 2

Thus the script failed to run. But the sed command that converts the '=m'
to '=y' still ran. This gives us a distro config with all modules
converted to built in!

The missing dependency was for conf for localyesconfig. This
dependency was already set for localmodconfig.

a7c02602a8 kconfig: test if a .config already exists
If one were to run localmodconfig or localyesconfig without having
a .config already in the file, then the end of the process would give
a warning when it tries to move the old .config to .config.old.

This patch adds a test to check if .config exists and avoid the moves
if it does not.

cdfc47950a kconfig: search for a config to base the local(mod|yes)config on
Instead of using the .config in the local directory. This patch
changes streamline_config.pl to search various locations for a config.

Here's the list and order of search:

  /proc/config.gz
  /boot/vmlinuz-`uname -r`
  vmlinux  # local to the directory
  /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/kernel/configs.ko
  kernel/configs.ko
  kernel/configs.o
  .config

Once it finds a file that contains a config (it checks if the binary
objects have configs first) it then uses it to create the .config
with minimum modules needed.

744ffcbe86 kconfig: enable CONFIG_IKCONFIG from streamline_config.pl
Ingo Molnar suggested that the streamline_config.pl should enable
CONFIG_IKCONFIG to keep the current config in the kernel.
Then we can use scripts/extract-ikconfig to find the current
modules.

This patch changes streamline_config.pl to check if CONFIG_IKCONFIG
is not set, and if it is not, it enables it to be a module.

ea2c1894b6 kconfig: do not warn about modules built in
The streamline_config.pl finds all the configs that are needed to
compile the currently loaded modules. After it creates the .config
file, it tests to make sure all the configs that are needed were
set.

It only looks at the configs that are modules, it does not look
at the builtin configs. This causes unnecessary warnings about modules
not being covered.

74398d3224 kconfig: streamline_config.pl do not stop with no depends
If a config does not have a prompt, it must be selected.
streamline_config.pl keeps track of all configs that select other configs.
If a config that does not have a prompt needs to be set to enable a
current module, it will include all configs that select it.
Note, streamline_config.pl does not enable modules that are not already
enabled. It only keeps enabled those that were enabled and might be
needed to compile the current modules.

The code to find the selects of a config is after the code that
adds the depends. But if a config needed selects but had no dependencies,
it would not be set. Because the code would stop before getting to
the select.

This adds the option localyesconfig to make. This is similar to
localmodconfig, but after it removes unnecessary modules it runs

  sed -i s/=m/=y/

on the .config file. It then runs "make silentoldconfig" to fix any
wholes that were created by the conversion of modules to core.

Running the streamline_config.pl script manually can still be confusing
for some users. This patch adds the localmodconfig option. This will
automatically run streamline_config.pl on the current .config and
then run "make silentoldconfig" to fix any wholes that might have been
created.

 $ make localmodconfig

This will remove any module configurations in .config that are not needed
to compile the modules that are loaded.

dcc60243e7 kconfig: add streamline_config.pl to scripts
streamline_config.pl is a very powerful tool. For those that install
a kernel to a new box using the config file from the distribution know that
it can take forever to compile the kernel.

Making a custom config file that will still boot your box, but bring
down the compile time of the kernel can be quit painful, and to ask
someone that reported a bug to do this can be a large burdon since that
person may not even know how to build a kernel.

This script will perform "lsmod" to find all the modules loaded on the
current running system. It will read all the Makefiles to map which
CONFIG enables a module. It will read the Kconfig files to find the
dependencies and selects that may be needed to support a CONFIG.
Finally, it reads the .config file and removes any module "=m" that is
not needed to enable the currently loaded modules. The output goes to
standard out.

Here's a way to run the script. From the Linux directory that holds
a distribution .config.

 $ scripts/kconfig/streamline_config.pl arch/x86/Kconfig > config-sl
 $ mv .config config-save
 $ mv config-sl .config
 $ make oldconfig

Now you have a .config that will still build all your modules, but also
take much less time to build the kernel.

7dbdee2e9a tracing: Fix recordmcount.pl to handle sections with only weak functions
Roland Dreier found that a section that contained only a weak
function in one of the staging drivers and this caused
recordmcount.pl to spit out a warning and fail.

Although it is strange that a driver would have a weak function, and
this function only be used in one place, it should not be something
to make recordmcount.pl fail.

This patch fixes the issue in a simple manner: if only weak
functions exist in a section, then that section will not be
recorded.
