If the bus_type is not registerd, driver_register to that bus will cause oops.
I found this bug when test built-in usb serial drivers (ie. aircable driver)
with 'nousb' cmdline params.
In this patch:
1. set the bus->p=NULL when bus_register failed and unregisterd.
2. if bus->p is NULL, driver_register BUG_ON will be triggered.

The patch from Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com> entitled:
platform driver: fix incorrect use of 'platform_bus_type' with 'struct devic
introduced the following warnings on m68k, as `dev' is now a `struct
platform_device *' instead of a `struct device *':
| drivers/scsi/a4000t.c:64: warning: passing argument 3 of 'NCR_700_detect' from incompatible pointer type

I think the below is missing (untested on real hardware).

This patch fixes the bug reported in
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11681.
"Lots of device drivers register a 'struct device_driver' with
the '.bus' member set to '&platform_bus_type'. This is wrong,
since the platform_bus functions expect the 'struct device_driver'
to be wrapped up in a 'struct platform_driver' which provides
some additional callbacks (like suspend_late, resume_early).
The effect may be that platform_suspend_late() uses bogus data
outside the device_driver struct as a pointer pointer to the
device driver's suspend_late() function or other hard to
reproduce failures."(Lothar Wassmann)

If a UIO memory region does not start on a page boundary but straddles one,
the number of actual pages that overlap the memory region may be calculated
incorrectly because the offset isn't taken into account. If userspace sets
the mmap length to offset+size, it may fail with -EINVAL if UIO thinks it's
trying to allocate too many pages.

UIO driver for the Adrienne Electronics Corporation PCI time code
device.
This device differs from other UIO devices since it uses I/O ports instead of
memory mapped I/O. In order to make it possible for UIO to work with this
device a utility, uioport, can be used to read and write the ports.
uioport is designed to be a setuid program and checks the permissions of
the /dev/uio* node and if the user has write permissions it will use
iopl and out*/in* to access the device.

If a UIO device has several memory mappings, it can be difficult for userspace
to find the right one. The situation becomes even worse if the UIO driver can
handle different versions of a card that have different numbers of mappings.
Benedikt Spranger has such cards and pointed this out to me. Thanks, Bene!
To address this problem, this patch adds "name" sysfs attributes for each
mapping. Userspace can use these to clearly identify each mapping. The name
string is optional. If a driver doesn't set it, an empty string will be
returned, so this patch won't break existing drivers.
The same problem exists for port region information, so a "name" attribute is
added there, too.

Now platform_device is being widely used on SoC processors where the
peripherals are attached to the system bus, which is simple enough.
However, silicon IPs for these SoCs are usually shared heavily across
a family of processors, even products from different companies. This
makes the original simple driver name based matching insufficient, or
simply not straight-forward.
Introduce a module id table for platform devices, and makes it clear
that a platform driver is able to support some shared IP and handle
slight differences across different platforms (by 'driver_data').
Module alias is handled automatically when a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE()
is defined.
To not disturb the current platform drivers too much, the matched id
entry is recorded and can be retrieved by platform_get_device_id().

This patch moves bus->match out from driver_probe_device and
does not hold device lock to check the match between a device
and a driver.
The idea has been verified by the commit 6cd4958609,
which leads to a faster boot. But the commit 6cd4958609 has
the following drawbacks: 1),only does the quick check in
the path of __driver_attach->driver_probe_device, not in other
paths; 2),for a matched device and driver, check the same match
twice. It is a waste of cpu ,especially for some drivers with long
device id table (eg. usb-storage driver).
This patch adds a helper of driver_match_device to check the match
in all paths, and testes the match only once.

This patch fixes the issue by removing offending (and somewhat
duplicate) code from init_phy() routine, and changes _probe()
function to use uec_mdio_bus_name().
Also, since we fully construct phy_bus_id in the _probe() routine,
we no longer need ->phy_address and ->mdio_bus fields in
ucc_geth_info structure.
I wish the patch would be a bit shorter, but it seems like the only
way to fix the issue in a sane way. Luckily, the patch has been
tested with real PHYs and fixed-link, so no further regressions
expected.

This fixes a locking bug in the dm9000 driver. It calls
request_irq() without setting IRQF_DISABLED ... which is
correct for handlers that support IRQ sharing, since that
behavior is not guaranteed for shared IRQs. However, its
IRQ handler then wrongly assumes that IRQs are blocked.
So the fix just uses the right spinlock primitives in the
IRQ handler.
NOTE: this is a classic example of the type of bug which
lockdep currently masks by forcibly setting IRQF_DISABLED
on IRQ handlers that did not request that flag.

This fixes a regression introduced when we switched to using the core
pci_set_power_state(). The chip seems to need the state to be written
over and over again until it sticks, so we do that.
Note that the code is a bit blunt, without timeout, etc... but that's
pretty much because I put back in there the code exactly as it used to
be before the regression. I still add a call to pci_set_power_state()
at the end so that ACPI gets called appropriately on x86.
