2017-07-17block: order /proc/devices by major numberLogan Gunthorpe1-2/+2
Presently, the order of the block devices listed in /proc/devices is not entirely sequential. If a block device has a major number greater than BLKDEV_MAJOR_HASH_SIZE (255), it will be ordered as if its major were module 255. For example, 511 appears after 1. This patch cleans that up and prints each major number in the correct order, regardless of where they are stored in the hash table. In order to do this, we introduce BLKDEV_MAJOR_MAX as an artificial limit (chosen to be 512). It will then print all devices in major order number from 0 to the maximum.

2017-07-17char_dev: order /proc/devices by major numberLogan Gunthorpe1-4/+4
Presently, the order of the char devices listed in /proc/devices is not entirely sequential. If a char device has a major number greater than CHRDEV_MAJOR_HASH_SIZE (255), it will be ordered as if its major were module 255. For example, 511 appears after 1. This patch cleans that up and prints each major number in the correct order, regardless of where they are stored in the hash table.

2014-01-24fs/proc: don't use module_init for non-modular core codePaul Gortmaker1-1/+1
PROC_FS is a bool, so this code is either present or absent. It will never be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall is rather misleading. Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that would be ugly at best. Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of fs_initcall (which makes sense for fs code) will thus change these registrations from level 6-device to level 5-fs (i.e. slightly earlier). However no observable impact of that small difference has been observed during testing, or is expected. Also note that this change uncovers a missing semicolon bug in the registration of vmcore_init as an initcall.
