      ALSA: wss: Remove (almost) always NULL parameters · fa60c065
      Lars-Peter Clausen authored 
      
Most callers of snd_wss_pcm(), snd_wss_timer() and snd_cs4236_pcm() pass
NULL as the last parameter, some callers pass a pointer but never use it
after the function has been called and only a few callers pass a pointer and
actually use it. The later is only the case for snd_wss_pcm() for
snd_cs4236_pcm() and it is possible to get the same PCM object by accessing
the pcm field of the snd_wss struct that was passed as the first parameter.

This function removes the last parameters from the functions mentioned above
and updates the callers which used it to use chip->pcm instead. This allows
us to slightly simplify the functions since they don't have to check and set
the last parameter anymore which makes the code slightly shorter and
cleaner.

      ALSA: cs4236: detect chip in one pass · d114cd84
      Krzysztof Helt authored 
      
The cs4236 was two step detection with call to the snd_wss_free()
between two steps. The snd_wss_free() did not free a sound device
created in the snd_wss_create(). This caused an OOPS during module
removal as the same sound device was released twice. The same OOPS
happened if the cs4236 module loading failed.

Fix this by adapting the snd_cs4236_create() to correctly work with
chips less capable then cs4236. The snd_cs4236_create() behaves the
same as the snd_wss_create() if the chip is less capable than the cs4236.

      IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers · 7d12e780
      David Howells authored 
      
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
