2008-11-21ssb: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(), dev_set_name()Kay Sievers
This patch is part of a larger patch series which will remove the "char bus_id[20]" name string from struct device. The device name is managed in the kobject anyway, and without any size limitation, and just needlessly copied into "struct device". To set and read the device name dev_name(dev) and dev_set_name(dev) must be used. If your code uses static kobjects, which it shouldn't do, "const char *init_name" can be used to statically provide the name the registered device should have. At registration time, the init_name field is cleared, to enforce the use of dev_name(dev) to access the device name at a later time. We need to get rid of all occurrences of bus_id in the entire tree to be able to enable the new interface. Please apply this patch, and possibly convert any remaining remaining occurrences of bus_id. We want to submit a patch to -next, which will remove bus_id from "struct device", to find the remaining pieces to convert, and finally switch over to the new api, which will remove the 20 bytes array and does no longer have a size limitation.

2008-04-08ssb: Turn suspend/resume upside downMichael Buesch
Turn the SSB bus suspend mechanism upside down. Instead of deciding by an internal reference count when to suspend/resume, let the parent bus call us in their suspend/resume routine. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2007-10-10[SSB]: add Sonics Silicon Backplane bus supportMichael Buesch
SSB is an SoC bus used in a number of embedded devices. The most well-known of these devices is probably the Linksys WRT54G, but there are others as well. The bus is also used internally on the BCM43xx and BCM44xx devices from Broadcom. This patch also includes support for SSB ID tables in modules, so that SSB drivers can be loaded automatically.
