[PATCH 00/10] fujitsu-laptop: renames and cleanups

[MichaÅ KÄpieÅ]

This series of patches was originally submitted by Alan Jenkins in
September 2009.  For various reasons they were never acted upon before.
Sadly, their original state makes them unreviewable due to multiple
changes happening within one patch and unreliable commit messages.

In order for Alan's efforts not to go to waste, I have rebased his
patches on top of dvhart/for-next, further split them into logically
separate changes and rewrote commit messages from scratch, based on the
assumed intent of the original author.

Here is how the original patches map to the rebased and split patches:

    1/4 -> 1-6/10
    2/4 -> 7-8/10
    3/4 ->   9/10
    4/4 ->  10/10

Some of these patches raise checkpatch warnings.  This is intentional,
in order to make renames clean and easy to review.  All of these issues
will be fixed by upcoming patch series.

Not all ideas suggested by Alan are present in the rebased series.  A
brief discussion of each rejected suggestion follows (most important
issues first).

  - Restructure fujitsu_init().  Quite frankly, I am pretty sure Alan
    did not test his series on Fujitsu hardware with a logo lamp and/or
    keyboard lamps.  Neither have I, but with his original patches
    applied, what happens on such a model is:

     1. fujitsu_init() calls acpi_bus_register_driver().
     2. acpi_fujitsu_laptop_add() is called.
     3. fujitsu_laptop is kzalloc()'ed.
     4. fujitsu_laptop->pf_device->dev is accessed.

    This results in a NULL dereference, because the platform device is
    only allocated and registered later in fujitsu_init().

    On the other hand, registering the platform device before the ACPI
    driver is also incorrect due to reasons I already pointed out in
    another thread (in short: we cannot _assume_ FUJ02E3 is present).
    This can only be fixed properly by registering the platform device
    inside acpi_fujitsu_laptop_add(), but I am still waiting for
    comments from Darren and Andy in the other thread before moving
    forward down this path.

  - Bail out when FUJ02B1 is not present.  It could have been deemed
    correct back in the day, but we now know that Fujitsu started
    shipping devices without that ACPI device present, though with
    FUJ02E3 still in place.  These two ACPI devices are independent and
    thus should not rely on each other's presence.

  - Move keycode[1-5] fields to struct fujitsu_laptop.  Doing this
    causes ordering issues inside fujitsu_init(), while a patch series I
    have queued that makes fujitsu-laptop use a sparse keymap removes
    these fields altogether.

  - Allocate and free fujitsu_bl and fujitsu_laptop inside ACPI
    callbacks.  While elegant and correct, this also causes ordering
    issues inside fujitsu_init() and can only be done once platform
    device registration is properly fixed.

  - Sync backlight power status in acpi_fujitsu_bl_add().  The long-term
    objective for fujitsu-laptop should be to achieve a clean split
    between the backlight-related part and the laptop-related part.
    This change keeps both parts intertwined.  My fujitsu_init() cleanup
    series contains a similar fix, but I have since found a different
    solution to this problem which I will post once Alan's rebased
    series gets applied.

  - Remove dmi_check_cb_common().  The sparse keymap series I have
    queued gets rid of this function without introducing an additional
    field inside struct fujitsu_laptop.

Moreover, some other minor changes present in original patch 1/4 were
left out.  A brief discussion of each such case follows.

-#define ACPI_FUJITSU_BL_NOTIFY_CODE1    0x80
+#define ACPI_FUJITSU_NOTIFY_CODE1     0x80

Notify code 0x80 is used by both parts of the driver (the
brightness-related one and the laptop-related one) and thus it should
not be annotated using the "_BL" infix specific to brightness-related
code.

-#if defined(CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS) || defined(CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS_MODULE)
...
-#endif

This does not really bring any benefit while breaking consistency with
other parts of the driver.

-       dmi_check_system(fujitsu_laptop_dmi_table);
+       dmi_check_system(fujitsu_dmi_table);

The original patches moved this dmi_check_system() call to
acpi_fujitsu_laptop_add(), which justifies renaming fujitsu_dmi_table to
fujitsu_laptop_dmi_table.  However, for reasons discussed above, the
rebased patches leave the dmi_check_system() call inside fujitsu_init(),
thus making the rename dubious.

-                    DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "FUJITSU SIEMENS"),
+                    DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "FUJITSU_LAPTOP SIEMENS"),

There are multiple changes like this in original patch 1/4.  They are
obviously wrong and were probably introduced by an unreviewed automatic
replacement.

        int ret;

There are four instances of such a removal in original patch 1/4.  They
are obviously correct, though they all happen inside functions related
to platform device attributes which I hope will soon get removed
altogether.  Thus I refrained from applying these to reduce churn (at
least a bit).

Finally, some of the changes suggested by Alan were already applied
along the way:

  - kmalloc() + memset() occurences were changed to kzalloc() by commit
    6c75dd0f965b ("drivers/platform/x86: Use kzalloc").

  - Unused debug macros were removed by commit 00816e1b3839
    ("fujitsu-laptop: Remove unused macros").
