- Fix prototypes for debugfs functions (in configurations where

The current <linux/debugfs.h> include file is a little fragile in that
it is not self-contained and hence may cause compile warnings or
errors depending on the files included before it, the kernel config
and the architecture. This patch makes things a little more robust by:
- including <linux/types.h> to get definitions of u32, mode_t, and so on.
- forward declaring struct file_operations.
- including <linux/err.h> when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is not set
The last change is particularly useful, as a kernel developer is
likely to build with debugfs always enabled and never see the build
breakage cased if debugfs is disabled.

platform_add_devices can be used from within modules, so it should be
exported. This can for example happen if you have hotpluggable firmware in
an FPGA on a system on chip processor; in our case the FPGA is probed for
devices and the FPGA base code registers the devices it has found with the
kernel.
(akpm: I think this is reasonable from a licensing POV: it's unlikely that
anyone would be interested in merging such specialised modules into mainline,
and it's a GPL export).

Here we add a TIMEOUT value to the hotplug environment of the firmware
requesting event. I will adapt udevd not to wait for anything else, if
it finds a TIMEOUT key.

The it87 and via686a hardware monitoring drivers each create a sysfs
file named "alarms" in R/W mode, while they should really create it in
read-only mode. Since we don't provide a store function for these files,
write attempts to these files will do something undefined (I guess) and
bad (I am sure). My own try resulted in a locked terminal (where I
attempted the write) and a 100% CPU load until next reboot.
As a side note, wouldn't it make sense to check, when creating sysfs
files, that readable files have a non-NULL show method, and writable
files have a non-NULL store method? I know drivers are not supposed to
do stupid things, but there is already a BUG_ON for several conditions
in sysfs_create_file, so maybe we could add two more?

Here comes a small cleanup patch for the via686a driver. I noticed the
following two non-fatal problems:
1* The device parent is explicitely set, but it's not needed because the
i2c core will do as the client is registered.
2* snprintf is used where strlcpy would suffice.
Fixing them brings the via686a driver in line with what other similar
drivers do.

Updates to the Ethernet/RNDIS gadget driver (mostly for RNDIS):
- Fix brown-paper bag goof with RNDIS packet TX ... the wrong length
field got set, so Windows would ignore data packets it received.
- More consistent handling of CDC output filters (but not yet hooking
things up so RNDIS uses the mechanism).
- Zerocopy RX for RNDIS packets too (saving CPU cycles).
- Use the pre-allocated interrupt/status request and buffer, rather
than allocating and freeing one of each every few seconds (which
could fail).
- Some more "sparse" tweaks, making both dual-speed and single-speed
configurations happier.
- RNDIS speeds are reported in units of 100bps, not bps.
Plus two minor cleanups (whitespace, messaging).

In response to complaints about excessive latency in the uhci-hcd driver
I'm planning to convert it to a top-half/bottom-half design. It turns out
that to do this, the USB API has to be modified slightly since the driver
will not be able to meet one of the guarantees in the current API. This
patch changes some kerneldoc, specifying the weaker guarantee.

This reverts a recent change to usb_set_interface(). The change worked
around a quirk in certain devices, but doing this in usbcore creates
needless regressions for other devices. More appropriate fixes won't
put such handling in usbcore.
Basically it's tricky to do a full software reset of USB device state, since
the devices don't all act the same. This adds a note to the kerneldoc for
the usb_reset_configuration() call to highlight the quirk this was working
around: endpoint data toggles not being reset.

This is the first of a few installments of PM API updates to match the
recent switch to "pm_message_t". This installment primarily affects
USB device drivers (for USB interfaces), and it changes the handful of
drivers which currently implement suspend methods:
- <linux/usb.h> and usbcore, signature change
- Some drivers only changed the signature, net effect this just
shuts up "sparse -Wbitwise":
* hid-core
* stir4200
- Two network drivers did that, and also grew slightly more
featureful suspend code ... they now properly shut down
their activities. (As should stir4200...)
* pegasus
* usbnet
Note that the Wake-On-Lan (WOL) support in pegasus doesn't yet work; looks
to me like it's missing a request to turn it on, vs just configuring it.
The ASIX code in usbnet also has WOL hooks that are ready to use; untested.

This has a variety of updates to the shared suspend/resume code for
PCI based USB host controllers.
- Cope with pm_message_t replacing the target system state.
This is actually a loss of functionality; PCI D1 and D2
states will no longer be used, and it's no longer knowable
that D3cold is on the way so power will be lost.
- Most importantly, some of the resume paths are reworked and
cleaned up. They're now an exact mirror of suspend paths,
and more care is taken to ensure the hardware is reactivated
before the hardware re-enables interrupts.
Plus comment and diagnostic cleanups; there are some nasty cases here
especially combined with swsusp, now they're somewhat commented.
