Intel has officially abandoned this project and does not want to
maintian it or have it included in the main kernel tree, as no one
should use the code, it's not needed anymore.
There is already an in-kernel driver for this hardware (since 2.6.30),
at76c50x-usb, and it supports all of the same devices. So this driver
can now be deleted.

Staging: rt3090: remove possible conflict with rt2860
Both drivers (rt2860 and rt3090) register themselves as "rt2860" on
loading the module.
In the very rare case of somebody having two cards in his machine, one
using rt3090 and the other one using the rt2860 driver, loading both
modules would be impossible, the second one will not be loaded as the
kernel will tell you that the driver is already registered.
This was also present with rt2870/rt3070 (with both driver registering
as "rt2870"), but the code has been merged to one driver recently.
The follwoing patch fixes this potential problem until merging of
rt2860/rt3090 code to a single driver.

The result of container_of should not be NULL. In particular, in this case
the argument to the enclosing function has passed though INIT_WORK, which

Staging: add cowloop driver
Cowloop is a "copy-on-write" pseudo block driver. It can
be stacked on top of a "real" block driver, and catches
all write operations on their way from the file systems
layer above to the real driver below, effectively shielding
the lower driver from those write accesses. The requests are
then diverted to an ordinary file, located somewhere else
(configurable). Later read requests are checked to see whether
they can be serviced by the "real" block driver below, or
must be pulled in from the diverted location. More information
is on the project's website http://www.ATComputing.nl/cowloop/
On TI DA850/OMAP-L138 EVM, HD44780 (24x2) LCD panel is being
used[1], but it is interfaced through the SoC specific LCD
interface and not through parallel port. A parallel port
driver has been developed which interfaces to the panel driver
through the SoC specific LCD interface.
Basically, both the serial and parallel interfaces supported
by the panel driver do not suit the specific interface SoC is
supporting so, a new interface type has been introduced.
Ideally the panel driver should be de-coupled from parallel
and serial port related items but this patch is something
that can be merged in the meantime.

on as yet. So in the meantime this driver is still

Please note this ring buffer implementation is very much a
work in progress (and hence RFC). In it's current form
it is stable and reasonably efficient. There are a couple
of unlikely cases that will lead to more data being lost
that is strictly necessary. The target was for the case
of requiring regular sampling even during user space reads.
All comments welcome.
The intention is to make this only one of several
implementations with run time selection. For now there
is only one, so it is hard coded into the drivers using it.

Staging: IIO: Trigger support added to core.
Add general registration support for IIO triggers. These
are currently only used to initialize a 'poll' of a given
device. Examples include the lis3l02dq's data ready signal
being used to initialize a read and gpio triggers being
used to allow externally synchronized sensor reading.
Each trigger can cause any number of 'consumer' devices
to be polled with each storing data into a related ring
buffer.
Two stage triggering is supported with 'fast' and 'slow'
paths. The first is used for things like pulling a data
hold line high and the second for actual read which
may take far longer.
Changes since V2:
* As with IIO triggers now use a registration approach
much closer to that of input leading to cleaner code.

This provides a unified interface for hardware and software
ring buffers.
Changes since V2:
* Moved to a more consistent structure. Now the ring buffer
has an associated struct device which is a child of the
relevant iio_dev. This in turn has two children, one
for the event interface and one for the access interface.
These two interfaces are now managed via cdev structures.
