Bug noted by Pieter Palmers: Isochronous transmit tasklets were
scheduled on isochronous receive events, in addition to the proper
isochronous receive tasklets.

This patch speeds up sbp2 a little bit --- but more importantly, it
brings the behavior of sbp2 and fw-sbp2 closer to each other. Like
fw-sbp2, sbp2 now does not limit the size of single transfers to 255
sectors anymore, unless told so by a blacklist flag or by module load
parameters.
Only very old bridge chips have been known to need the 255 sectors
limit, and we have got one such chip in our hardwired blacklist. There
certainly is a danger that more bridges need that limit; but I prefer to
have this issue present in both fw-sbp2 and sbp2 rather than just one of
them.
An OXUF922 with 400GB 7200RPM disk on an S400 controller is sped up by
this patch from 22.9 to 23.5 MB/s according to hdparm. The same effect
could be achieved before by setting a higher max_sectors module
parameter. On buses which use 1394b beta mode, sbp2 and fw-sbp2 will
now achieve virtually the same bandwidth. Fw-sbp2 only remains faster
on 1394a buses due to fw-core's gap count optimization.

Both the old e1000 driver and the new e1000e driver can drive some
PCI-Express e1000 cards, and we should avoid ambiguity about which
driver will pick up the support for those cards when both drivers are
enabled.
This solves the problem by having the old driver support those cards if
the new driver isn't configured, but otherwise ceding support for PCI
Express versions of the e1000 chipset to the newer driver. Thus
allowing both legacy configurations where only the old driver is active
(and handles all chips it knows about) and the new configuration with
the new driver handling the more modern PCIE variants.

This patch adds a new configuration option, which adds support for a new
early_param which gets checked in arch/x86/kernel/setup_{32,64}.c:setup_arch()
to decide wether OHCI-1394 FireWire controllers should be initialized and
enabled for physical DMA access to allow remote debugging of early problems
like issues ACPI or other subsystems which are executed very early.
If the config option is not enabled, no code is changed, and if the boot
paramenter is not given, no new code is executed, and independent of that,
all new code is freed after boot, so the config option can be even enabled
in standard, non-debug kernels.
With specialized tools, it is then possible to get debugging information
from machines which have no serial ports (notebooks) such as the printk
buffer contents, or any data which can be referenced from global pointers,
if it is stored below the 4GB limit and even memory dumps of of the physical
RAM region below the 4GB limit can be taken without any cooperation from the
CPU of the host, so the machine can be crashed early, it does not matter.
In the extreme, even kernel debuggers can be accessed in this way. I wrote
a small kgdb module and an accompanying gdb stub for FireWire which allows
to gdb to talk to kgdb using remote remory reads and writes over FireWire.
An version of the gdb stub fore FireWire is able to read all global data
from a system which is running a a normal kernel without any kernel debugger,
without any interruption or support of the system's CPU. That way, e.g. the
task struct and so on can be read and even manipulated when the physical DMA
access is granted.
A HOWTO is included in this patch, in Documentation/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt
and I've put a copy online at
ftp://ftp.suse.de/private/bk/firewire/docs/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt

The function __cpufreq_set_policy in file drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c
has a very obvious error:
if (policy->min > data->min && policy->min > policy->max) {
ret = -EINVAL;
goto error_out;
}
This condtion statement is wrong because it returns -EINVAL only if
policy->min is greater than policy->max (in this case,
"policy->min > data->min" is true for ever.). In fact, it should
return -EINVAL as well if policy->max is less than data->min.
The correct condition should be:
if (policy->min > data->max || policy->max < data->min) {
The following test result testifies the above conclusion:

the previous patch in the old RTC driver. It also removes the direct
rtc_interrupt() call from arch/x86/kernel/hpetc.c so that there's finally no
(code) dependency to CONFIG_RTC in arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c.
Because of this, it's possible to compile the drivers/char/rtc.ko driver as
module and still use the HPET emulation functionality. This is also expressed
in Kconfig.

The ACPI code currently disables TSC use in any C2 and C3
states. But the AMD Fam10h BKDG documents that the TSC
will never stop in any C states when the CONSTANT_TSC bit is
set. Make this disabling conditional on CONSTANT_TSC
not set on AMD.
I actually think this is true on Intel too for C2 states
on CPUs with p-state invariant TSC, but this needs
further discussions with Len to really confirm :-)
So far it is only enabled on AMD.

Aviod TLB flush IPIs during C3 states by voluntary leave_mm()
before entering C3.
The performance impact of TLB flush on C3 should not be significant with
respect to C3 wakeup latency. Also, CPUs tend to flush TLB in hardware while in
C3 anyways.
On a 8 logical CPU system, running make -j2, the number of tlbflush IPIs goes
down from 40 per second to ~ 0. Total number of interrupts during the run
of this workload was ~1200 per second, which makes it ~3% savings in wakeups.
There was no measurable performance or power impact however.

People with HP Desktops (including me) encounter couple of DMI errors
during boot - dmi_save_oem_strings_devices: out of memory and
dmi_string: out of memory.
On some HP desktops the DMI data include OEM strings (type 11) out of
which only few are meaningful and most other are empty. DMI code
religiously creates copies of these 27 strings (65 bytes each in my
case) and goes OOM in dmi_string().
If DMI_MAX_DATA is bumped up a little then it goes and fails in
dmi_save_oem_strings while allocating dmi_devices of sizeof(struct
dmi_device) corresponding to these strings.
On x86_64 since we cannot use alloc_bootmem this early, the code uses a
static array of 2048 bytes (DMI_MAX_DATA) for allocating the memory DMI
needs. It does not survive the creation of empty strings and devices.
Fix this by detecting and not newly allocating empty strings and instead
using a one statically defined dmi_empty_string.
Also do not create a new struct dmi_device for each empty string - use
one statically define dmi_device with .name=dmi_empty_string and add
that to the dmi_devices list.
On x64 this should stop the OOM with same current size of DMI_MAX_DATA
and on x86 this should save a good amount of (27*65 bytes +
27*sizeof(struct dmi_device) bootmem.
Compile and boot tested on both 32-bit and 64-bit x86.

This patch unifies struct desc_ptr between i386 and x86_64.
They can be expressed in the exact same way in C code, only
having to change the name of one of them. As Xgt_desc_struct
is ugly and big, this is the one that goes away.
There's also a padding field in i386, but it is not really
needed in the C structure definition.

Looks like IRQ 31 is assigned to timer 3, even without the patch!
I wonder who wrote the number 31. But the manual says that it is
zero by default.
I think we should check whether the timer has been allocated an IRQ before
proceeding to assign one to it. Here is a patch that does this.

The new e1000e driver is apparently not yet suitable for general use, so
mark it experimental, and re-instate all the PCI-Express device IDs in
the old and stable e1000 driver so that people (namely me) can continue
to use a driver that actually works.
Auke & co have been appraised of the situation.

since it gets asked to complete zero bytes.

In ace_fsm_dostate(), the variable 'i' was used only for passing
sector size of the request to end_that_request_first().
So I removed it and changed the code to pass the size in bytes
directly to __blk_end_request()

Fix a bunch of warnings in PPP and related drivers. Mostly because
sparse doesn't like it when the the function is only marked private in
the forward declaration.

always extend the rx timestamp with the local TSF, since this information is
also needed for proper IBSS merging. this is done in the tasklet for now, maybe
has to be moved to the interrupt handler like in madwifi.

in "11.1.2.2 Beacon generation in an IBSS" the IEEE802.11 standard says, each
STA should... "b) Calculate a random delay uniformly distributed in the range
between zero and twice aCWmin × aSlotTime,".
configure cwmin and cwmax of the beacon queue in IBSS mode according to this.
unfortunately beacon backoff does not work reliably yet, so i suspect we have a
problem somewhere else, since the same settings (and similar beacon timer
configuration) work for madwifi.

use SWBA (software beacon alert) interrupts to keep track of the next beacon
time und check if a HW merge (automatic TSF update) has happened on every
received beacon with the same BSSID.
this is necessary because the atheros hardware will silently update the local
TSF in IBSS mode, but not its beacon timers. if the TSF is ahead of the beacon
timers no beacons are sent until the timers wrap around (typically after about
1 minute).
this solution is not very nice, since we have to look into every beacon, but
there is apparently no other way to detect HW merges.

update ath5k_beacon_update_timers() for better beacon timer calculation in a
variety of situations. most important is the possibility to call it with the
timestamp of a received beacon, when we detected that a HW merge has happened
and we need to reconfigure the beacon timers based on that.
we call this from the mac80211 callback reset_tsf now instead of beacon_update,
and there will be more use of it in the next patch.

the beacon interval is passed by mac80211 in TU already, so we can directly use
it without conversion. also update the comments about TU (1 TU is defined by
802.11 as 1024usec).

reviewed beacon timer initialization with register traces from madwifi: what we
are doing is correct :). one minor fix: use 3 instead of 0x00000003 - it's more
readable.

This zeros out all microcode related memory before loading
the microcode.
This also fixes initialization of the MAC control register.
The _only_ place where we overwrite the contents of the MAC control
register is at the beginning of b43_chip_init().
All other places must do read() -> mask/set -> write() to not
overwrite existing bits.
This also adds a longer delay for waiting for the microcode
to initialize itself. It seems that the current timeout is sufficient
on all available devices, but there's no real reason why we shouldn't
wait for up to one second. Slow embedded devices might exist.
Better safe than sorry.

We must also store the ID string (filename) for the cached firmware blobs
and verify that we really have the right firmware cached before using it.
If we don't have the right fw cached, we must free it and request the
correct blobs.
