Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either.
What I do:
Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the
.read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes.
In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and
include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work.
But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes
to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods.
I'm not sure if I missed any. :(
Why I do this:
For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the
struct attribute in the .show/.store method,
while we can't do this for the binary attributes.
I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not
so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones.
So I think this patch is reasonable. :)
Who benefits from it:
The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs
requires such an improvement.
All the table binary attributes share the same .read method.
Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get
the table signature and instance number which are used to
distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes.
Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods
for different ACPI table binary attributes.
This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different
platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.
This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.

If you'll recall, over a year ago, I pointed out that the current
Radeon driver erroneously returns -EINVAL for valid blanking codes,
here is a link to that thread:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/28/6
No other driver does this, and it confuses the X server into thinking
that the device does not support blanking properly.
I looked again and there is simply no reason for the Radeon driver to
return -EINVAL for FB_BLANK_NORMAL. It claims it wants to do this in
order to convince fbcon to blank in software, right here:
if (fb_blank(info, blank))
fbcon_generic_blank(vc, info, blank);
to software blank the screen. But it only causes that to happen
in the FB_BLANK_NORMAL case.
That makes no sense because the Radeon code does this:
val |= CRTC_DISPLAY_DIS;
in the FB_BLANK_NORMAL case so should be blanking the hardware, and
there is therefore no reason to SW blank by returning -EINVAL.

fb_info->bl_mutex is badly thought out and the backlight class doesn't
need it if the framebuffer/backlight register/unregister order is
consistent, particularly after the backlight locking fixes.
Fix the drivers to use the order:
backlight_device_register()
register_framebuffer()
unregister_framebuffer()
backlight_device_unregister()
and turn bl_mutex into a lock for the bl_curve data only.

Many IBM Thinkpad T4* models and some R* and X* with radeon video cards draw
too much power when suspended to RAM, reducing drastically the battery
lifetime. The solution is to enable suspend-to-D2 on these machines. They
are whitelisted through their subsystem vendor/device ID. This fixes
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3022
The patch introduces a framework to alter the pm_mode and reinit_func fields
of the radeonfb_info structure based on a whitelist. This should facilitate
future hardware-dependent workarounds. The workaround for the Samsung P35
that is already in the radeonfb code has been rewritten using this framework.
The behavior can be overridden with module options:
i) video=radeonfb:force_sleep=1
enable suspend-to-D2 also on non-whitelisted machines (useful for
testing new notebook models),
ii) video=radeonfb:ignore_devlist=1
Disable checking the whitelist and do not apply any workarounds.

A set of 3 small bugfixes, all of which are related to bogus return values
of fb colormap-setting functions.
First, fb_alloc_cmap returns -1 if memory allocation fails. This is a hard
condition to reproduce since you'd have to be really low on memory, but from
studying the contexts in which it is called, I think this function should be
returning a negative errno, and the -1 will be seen as an EPERM. Switching it
to -ENOMEM makes sense.
Second, the store_cmap function which is called for writes to
/sys/class/graphics/fb0/color_map returns 0 for success, but it should be
returning the count of bytes written since its return value ends up in
userspace as the result of the write() syscall.
Third, radeonfb returns 1 instead of a negative errno when FBIOPUTCMAP is
called with an oversized colormap. This is seen in userspace as a return
value of 1 from the ioctl() syscall with errno left unchanged. A more
useful return value would be -EINVAL.

According to Jon Smirl, filling in the field fb_cursor with soft_cursor for
drivers that do not support hardware cursors is redundant. The soft_cursor
function is usable by all drivers because it is just a wrapper around
fb_imageblit. And because soft_cursor is an fbcon-specific hook, the file is
moved to the console directory.
Thus, drivers that do not support hardware cursors can leave the fb_cursor
field blank. For drivers that do, they can fill up this field with their own
version.
The end result is a smaller code size. And if the framebuffer console is not
loaded, module/kernel size is also reduced because the soft_cursor module will
also not be loaded.

This patch changes radeon to request only resources 0 and 2 instead of all
3. This works around problems with some setups where BAR 1 (IO BAR) has
not been assigned by the firmware since it's not used on the machine and
the kernel fails to assign something to it due to the card being between a
P2P bridge that was configured without an IO range at all.
