[SCSI] enclosure: fix WARN_ON in dual path device removing

2013-12-02T19:13:14Z

Bug report from: wenxiong@linux.vnet.ibm.com The issue is happened in dual controller configuration. We got the sysfs warnings when rmmod the ipr module. enclosure_unregister() in drivers/msic/enclosure.c, call device_unregister() for each componment deivce, device_unregister() ->device_del()->kobject_del() ->sysfs_remove_dir(). In sysfs_remove_dir(), set kobj->sd = NULL. For each componment device, enclosure_component_release()->enclosure_remove_links()->sysfs_remove_link() in which checking kobj->sd again, it has been set as NULL when doing device_unregister. So we saw all these sysfs WARNING. Tested-by: wenxiong@linux.vnet.ibm.com Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

misc: mic: Suppress memory space sparse warnings

2013-11-27T19:08:30Z

MIC card and host drivers are able to use virtio over the PCIe bus by treating ioremap return values for the prefetchable BARs as pointers, effectively treating I/O memory the same as system memory. However this results in sparse warnings. Knowing that these warnings do not point to a functional issue, this patch suppresses these warnings.

misc: mic: Fix endianness issues.

2013-11-27T19:03:38Z

Endianness issues are now consistent as per the documentation in host/mic_virtio.h. Sparse warnings related to endianness are also fixed. Note that the MIC driver implementation assumes that the host can be both BE or LE whereas the card is always LE.

misc: mic: Fix user space namespace pollution from mic_common.h.

2013-11-27T19:03:38Z

Avoid declaring ALIGN() and __aligned() in include/uapi/linux/mic_common.h since they pollute user space namespace. Also, mic_aligned_size() can be simply replaced simply by sizeof() since all structures where mic_aligned_size() is used are declared using __attribute__ ((aligned(8))); -- >From mail from H Peter Anvin about this: On Fri, Nov 08, 2013 H Peter Anvin wrote: Subject: Namespace pollution in mic_common.h This puts two macros, ALIGN() and __aligned(), into arbitrary user space namespace. This really isn't safe or acceptable, especially since those symbols are highly generic. ... When these structures are forced-aligned, they will in fact have padding automatically added by the compiler to an 8-byte boundary anyway, so mic_aligned_size() does nothing. ...
