fdcfd85433 rtc: rework rtc_register_device() resource management
rtc_register_device() is a managed interface but it doesn't use devres
by itself - instead it marks an rtc_device as "registered" and the devres
callback for devm_rtc_allocate_device() takes care of resource release.

This doesn't correspond with the design behind devres where managed
structures should not be aware of being managed. The correct solution
here is to register a separate devres callback for unregistering the
device.

While at it: rename rtc_register_device() to devm_rtc_register_device()
and add it to the list of managed interfaces in devres.rst. This way we
can avoid any potential confusion of driver developers who may expect
there to exist a corresponding unregister function.

3a905c2d95 rtc: add devm_ prefix to rtc_nvmem_register()
rtc_nvmem_register() is a managed interface. It doesn't require any
release function to be called at driver detach. To avoid confusing
driver authors, let's rename it to devm_rtc_nvmem_register() and add it
to the list of managed interfaces in Documentation/.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me

16380c153a RTC: Convert rtc drivers to use the alarm_irq_enable method
Some rtc drivers use the ioctl method instead of the alarm_irq_enable
method for enabling alarm interupts. With the new virtualized RTC
rework, its important for drivers to use the alarm_irq_enable instead.

This patch converts the drivers that use the AIE ioctl method to
use the alarm_irq_enable method. Other ioctl cmds are left untouched.

I have not been able to test or even compile most of these drivers.
Any help to make sure this change is correct would be appreciated!

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

2fac6674dd rtc: bunch of drivers: fix 'no irq' case handing
This patch fixes a bunch of irq checking misuses.  Most drivers were
getting irq via platform_get_irq(), which returns -ENXIO or r->start.

rtc-cmos.c is special.  It is using PNP and platform bindings.  Hopefully
nobody is using PNP IRQ 0 for RTC.  So the changes should be safe.

rtc-sh.c is using platform_get_irq, but was storing a result into an
unsigned type, then was checking for < 0.  This is fixed now.

01e8ef11bc x86: sysfs: kill owner field from attribute
Tejun's commit 7b595756ec made sysfs
attribute->owner unnecessary.  But the field was left in the structure to
ease the merge.  It's been over a year since that change and it is now
time to start killing attribute->owner along with its users - one arch at
a time!

This patch is attempt #1 to get rid of attribute->owner only for
CONFIG_X86_64 or CONFIG_X86_32 .  We will deal with other arches later on
as and when possible - avr32 will be the next since that is something I
can test.  Compile (make allyesconfig / make allmodconfig / custom config)
and boot tested.

akpm: the idea is that we put the declaration of sttribute.owner inside
`#ifndef CONFIG_X86'.  But that proved to be too ambitious for now because
new usages kept on turning up in subsystem trees.

a4b1d50e61 RTCs: handle NVRAM better
Several of the RTC drivers are exporting binary "nvram" files in sysfs.  Such
NVRAM (or on many systems, EEPROM) data is often initialized during system
manufacture to hold data about identity (serial numbers, Ethernet addresses,
etc), configuration, calibration, and so forth.

This patch improves integrity and security of those files:

  - Correctly initializes the size in one of the two cases where
    that was not yet being done.

  - Improves system security/integrity by making this state not
    be world-writable by default.

Letting arbitrary userspace code mangle such state by default is at least Not
A Good Thing; and it could sometimes be worse, depending on the particular
data that might be corrupted.  (I disregard the paranoiac "don't let anyone
read it either" approach.  Anyone storing passwords in such memory doesn't
really care about security.)

1273092655 rtc: m48t59 fix section mismatch warning
Change the name of this data to use a name (suffix) that is whitelisted
by MODPOST so that the section warning is fixed (not generated).

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x1b140): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:m48t59_rtc_probe (between 'm48t59_rtc_platdrv' and 'm48t59_nvram_attr')

0439208a8a rtc-m48t59 driver NO_IRQ mode fixup
Since irq in m48t59_private struct is defined as 'unsigned int', which will
make the following if sentence to be never true:

         if (m48t59->irq < 0)
                  m48t59->irq = NO_IRQ;

And thus it will make the m48t59_rtc_probe() is failed when the driver is
working in a no irq mode:
