This patch adds __init to the ACPICA documented initializers:
acpi_initialize_tables()
acpi_initialize_subsystem()
acpi_load_tables()
acpi_enable_subsystem()
acpi_initialize_objects()
and to acpi_reallocate_root_table(), acpi_find_root_pointer() which
are also meant to be called only during initialization.
This patch adds __init to the ACPICA documented finalizer:
acpi_terminate()
as this finalizer is only called in __init function now.

The new ACPICA OSL override mechanism is used to solve these issues
for the Linux OSL:
1. Linux can implement OSL using a macro.
2. Linux can implement OSL using an inlined function.
3. Linux can leave OSL not implemented for __KERNEL__ undefined code
fragments.
4. Linux can add sparse declarators (__iomem) to OSL.
5. Linux can add memory tuning declarators (__init/__exit) to OSL.
This patch also moves Linux specific OSL to aclinux.h which has not been
maintained in the ACPICA code base. Lv Zheng.
Known issue:
From ACPICA's perspective, actypes.h should be included after inclusion
of acenv.h. But currently in Linux, aclinux.h included by acenv.h has
included actypes.h to find ACPICA types for inline functions. This is a
known and existing issue and currently there is no real problem caused
by this issue for Linux kernel build. Thus this issue is not covered by

During the automatic translation of the upstream ACPICA source code
into Linux kernel source code some extra white spaces are added by
the "indent" program at the beginning of each line which is an
invocation of a macro and there is no ";" at the end of the line.
For this reason, a new mode has been added to the translation scripts
to remove the extra spaces inserted before invoking such macros and add
an empty line between the invocations of such macros (like the other
function declarations). This new mode is executed after executing
"indent" during the Linux release process. Consequently, some
existing ACPICA source code in the Linux kernel tree needs to be
adjusted to allow the new scripts to work correctly.
The affected macros and files are:
1. ACPI_HW_DEPENDENT_RETURN (acpixf.h/acdebug.h/acevents.h):
This macro is used as a wrapper for hardware dependent APIs to offer
a stub when the reduced hardware is configured during compilation.
2. ACPI_EXPORT_SYMBOL (utglobal.c):
This macro is used by Linux to export symbols to be found by Linux
modules. All such invocations are well formatted except those
exported as global variables.
This can help to reduce the source code differences between Linux
and upstream ACPICA, and also help to automate the release process.
No functional or binary generation changes should result from it.

This changes can reduce source code differences between Linux and ACPICA
upstream to help improving the release automation.
The side effect of applying this patch in Linux is:
1. Some ACPICA initialization/termination APIs are no longer exported in
Linux, these include:
acpi_load_tables
acpi_initialize_subsystem
acpi_enable_subsystem
acpi_initialize_objects
acpi_terminate
2. This patch does not affect the following APIs as they are currently not
marked with ACPI_EXPORT_SYMBOL in Linux:
acpi_reallocate_root_table
acpi_initialize_tables
Such functions should not be exported as they are internal to ACPI
subsystem in Linux, and will only be invoked inside of ACPI subsystem's
initialization routines marked with __init and termination routines marked
with __exit. While on other OSPMs, such functions may still need to be
exported.
Thus this patch adds the configurability for ACPICA, so that it leaves
OSPMs to determine if the __init/__exit marked functions should be exported
or not. Lv Zheng.

Some non soc-camera drivers, e.g. em28xx, use subdevice drivers, originally
written for soc-camera, which use soc_camera_power_on() and
soc_camera_power_off() helpers to implement their .s_power() methods. Those
helpers in turn can enable and disable a clock, if it is supplied to them
as a parameter. This works well when camera host drivers balance their
calls to subdevices' .s_power() methods. However, some such drivers fail to
do that, which leads to unbalanced calls to v4l2_clk_enable() /
v4l2_clk_disable(), which then in turn produce kernel warnings. Such
behaviour is wrong and should be fixed, however, sometimes it is difficult,
because some of those drivers are rather old and use lots of subdevices,
which all should be tested after such a fix. To support such drivers this
patch adds a work-around, allowing host drivers or platforms to set a flag,
in which case soc-camera helpers will only enable the clock, if it is
disabled, and disable it only once on the first call to .s_power(0).

In some environments it is to prefer to postpone the resume of the card
device until runtime_resume is being carried out, since it will mean a
signficant decrease of the total system resume time.
The reason of the decreased resume time is simply because of the actual
re-initalization of the card, which typically takes hundreds of
milliseconds, is performed outside the resume sequence and wont thus
affect it.
For removable card, the detect work tries to re-detect the card to make
sure it is still present, as a part of that sequence the card will also
be runtime_resumed and thus also fully resumed.
For a non-removable card, typically a mmc blk request will trigger a
runtime_resume and thus fully resume the card. This also means the
first request will likely suffer from an inital latency since the
re-initialization of the card needs to be performed.

By adding a card state that records if it is suspended or resumed, we

MMC_CAP_AGGRESSIVE_PM, will at request inactivity through the runtime
bus_ops callbacks, execute a suspend of the the card. In the state were
this has been done, we can receive a suspend request for the mmc bus,
which for sd and mmc forced the card to active state by a
pm_runtime_get_sync. In other words, the card was resumed and then
immediately suspended again, completely unnecessary.
Since the suspend/resume bus_ops callbacks for sd and mmc are now
capable of handling asynchronous requests, we no longer need to force
the card to active state before executing suspend. Evidently preventing
the above sequence for MMC_CAP_AGGRESSIVE_PM.

this_cpu_sub() is implemented as negation and addition.
This patch casts the adjustment to the counter type before negation to
sign extend the adjustment. This helps in cases where the counter type
is wider than an unsigned adjustment. An alternative to this patch is
to declare such operations unsupported, but it seemed useful to avoid
surprises.
This patch specifically helps the following example:
unsigned int delta = 1
preempt_disable()
this_cpu_write(long_counter, 0)
this_cpu_sub(long_counter, delta)
preempt_enable()
Before this change long_counter on a 64 bit machine ends with value
0xffffffff, rather than 0xffffffffffffffff. This is because
this_cpu_sub(pcp, delta) boils down to this_cpu_add(pcp, -delta),
which is basically:
long_counter = 0 + 0xffffffff
Also apply the same cast to:
__this_cpu_sub()
__this_cpu_sub_return()
this_cpu_sub_return()
All percpu_test.ko passes, especially the following cases which
previously failed:
l -= ui_one;
__this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(l, long_counter, -1);
l -= ui_one;
this_cpu_sub(long_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(l, long_counter, -1);
CHECK(l, long_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff);
ul -= ui_one;
__this_cpu_sub(ulong_counter, ui_one);
CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, -1);
CHECK(ul, ulong_counter, 0xffffffffffffffff);
ul = this_cpu_sub_return(ulong_counter, ui_one);
