usb_open() is protected by a down_read(&minor_rwsem), but I'm not sure I
trust it to protect everything including subsidiary open() functions.

misc_open() looks fine, but who knows what all of the misc drivers are
doing in their open() functions?

* 'i2c-for-linus' of git://jdelvare.pck.nerim.net/jdelvare-2.6:
i2c/max6875: Really prevent 24RF08 corruption
i2c-amd756: Fix functionality flags
i2c: Kill the old driver matching scheme
i2c: Convert remaining new-style drivers to use module aliasing
i2c: Switch pasemi to the new device/driver matching scheme
i2c: Clean up Blackfin BF527 I2C device declarations
i2c-nforce2: Disable the second SMBus channel on the DFI Lanparty NF4 Expert
i2c: New co-maintainer
According to the tests in do_initcalls(), the proper error code in case no
device is found is -ENODEV, not -ENXIO or -EIO.

Correct FB_HP300 dependencies:

HP300)

i2c-core takes care of the possible corruption of 24RF08 chips for
quite some times, so device devices no longer need to do it. And they
really should not, as applying the prevention twice voids it.
I thought that I had fixed all drivers long ago but apparently I had
missed that one.

Remove the old driver_name/type scheme for i2c driver matching. Only the
standard aliasing model will be used from now on.
Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
Update all the remaining new-style i2c drivers to use standard module
aliasing instead of the old driver_name/type driver matching scheme.
Note that the tuner driver is a bit quirky at the moment, as it
overwrites i2c_client.name with arbitrary strings. We write "tuner"
back on remove, to make sure that driver cycling will work properly,
but there may still be troublesome corner cases.

There is a strange chip at 0x2e on the second SMBus channel of the
DFI Lanparty NF4 Expert motherboard. Accessing the chip reboots the
system. As there's nothing interesting on this SMBus channel, the
easiest and safest thing to do is to disable it on that board.
This is a better fix to bug #5889 than the it87 driver update that was
done originally:

Everybody wants to pass it a function pointer, and in fact, that is what
you _must_ pass it for it to make sense (since it knows that ia64 and
ppc64 use descriptors for function pointers and fetches the actual
address from there).
So don't make the argument be a 'unsigned long' and force everybody to
add a cast.
