This series fixes a problem where we were using a Linux specific data structure in our s-Par channel. These channels are shared across multiple OS types and should not use OS specific structures unless absolutely needed. It also adds some additional error handling and other cleanup.
This patchset also introduces some changes being made to the functions that invoke the uevents that occur on chipset_ready/selftest/notready messages from the s-Par firmware. This simplifies the functions so that we can tackle more challenging changes in later patches.
