This is a resend of the patches yet to be applied. This patch-set addresses some of the bus/driver model cleanup that Greg sugested over the last couple of days. In this patch-set we deal with the following issues: 1) Cleanup error handling in the vmbus_probe() and vmbus_child_device_register() functions. Fixed a bug in the probe failure path as part of this cleanup. 2) The Windows host cannot handle the vmbus_driver being unloaded and subsequently loaded. Cleanup the driver with this in mind. 3) Get rid of struct hv_bus that embedded struct bus_type to conform with the LDM. 4) Add probe/remove/shutdown functions to struct hv_driver to conform to LDM. 5) On some older Hyper-V hosts, the Linux PCI sub-sytem is not able to allocate irq resources to the vmbus driver. I recently learnt that the vmbus driver is an acpi enumerated device on the Hyper-V platform. Added code to retrieve irq information from DSDT. Regards, K.
