The Power Management Unit on PowerMacs is very sensitive to timeouts during
async message exchanges. It uses rather crude protocol based on a shift
register with an interrupt and is almost continuously exchanging messages with
the host CPU on laptops.
This patch adds a routine to the open_pic driver to be able to select a PMU
driver so that it bumps it's interrupt priority to above the normal level.
This will allow PMU interrupts to occur while another interrupt is pending,
and thus reduce the risk of machine beeing abruptly shutdown by the PMU due to
a timeout in PMU communication caused by excessive interrupt latency. The
problem is very rare, and usually just doesn't happen, but it is still useful
to make things even more robust.

If cfq is managing a queue and a new scheduler is later selected, it is
possible for the cfqd unplug_work work to be queued after the kblockd
work struct has been flushed. The problem is the ordering of
cfq_shutdown_timer_wq() and blk_put_queue() in cfq_put_cfqd(). The
latter may rearm the work, leaving cfq_kick_queue() with dead data.

- Adjust slice values
- Instead of one async queue, one is defined per priority level. This
prevents kernel threads (such as reiserfs/x and others) that run at
higher io priority from conflicting with others. Previously, it was a
coin toss what io prio the async queue got, it was defined by who
first set up the queue.
- Let a time slice only begin, when the previous slice is completely
done. Previously we could be somewhat unfair to a new sync slice, if
the previous slice was async and had several ios queued. This might
need a little tweaking if throughput suffers a little due to this,
allowing perhaps an overlap of a single request or so.
- Optimize the calling of kblockd_schedule_work() by doing it only when
it is strictly necessary (no requests in driver and work left to do).
- Correct sync vs async logic. A 'normal' process can be purely async as
well, and a flusher can be purely sync as well. Sync or async is now a
property of the class defined and requests pending. Previously writers
could be considered sync, when they were really async.
- Get rid of the bit fields in cfqq and crq, use flags instead.
- Various other cleanups and fixes

In cfq_find_next_crq(), cfq tries to find the next request by choosing
one of two requests before and after the current one. Currently, when
choosing the next request, if there's no next request, the next
candidate is NULL, resulting in selection of the previous request. This
results in weird scheduling. Once we reach the end, we always seek
backward.
The correct behavior is using the first request as the next candidate.
cfq_choose_req() already has logics for handling wrapped requests.

This updates the CFQ io scheduler to the new time sliced design (cfq
v3). It provides full process fairness, while giving excellent
aggregate system throughput even for many competing processes. It
supports io priorities, either inherited from the cpu nice value or set
directly with the ioprio_get/set syscalls. The latter closely mimic
set/getpriority.
This import is based on my latest from -mm.

Add separate files for the different 8250 ISA-based serial boards.
Looking across all the various architectures, it seems reasonable that
we can key the availability of the configuration options for these
beasts to the bus-related symbols (iow, CONFIG_ISA). We also standardise
the base baud/uart clock rate for these boards - I'm sure that isn't
architecture specific, but is solely dependent on the crystal fitted
on the board (which should be the same no matter what type of machine
its fitted into.)

Check the link state during b44_open. This closes a 1 HZ window
that existed after b44_open ran but before the b44_timer handler ran,
during which ethtool would report "Link detected: yes" no matter what
the link state actually was.

The race causes a kernel oops when smc_hardware_send_pkt() tries to
dereference pending_tx_skb which would have been freed from one of the
driver reset paths just after the tx_task tasklet has been scheduled.
This race is possible on SMP but was uncovered by the kernel RT work.

If the frame has ToDS flag set, mark it by setting skb->pkt_type to
PACKET_OTHERHOST, so that applications unaware of promiscous mode won't get
uplink (STA->AP) packets for STA->STA transmissions relayed by the AP.
Thanks to John Denker and David Gibson for finding the problem and the
solution.
