2005-06-27[PATCH] ppc32: Bump PMU interrupt priorityBenjamin Herrenschmidt
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.

2005-04-16[PATCH] ppc32: Fix cpufreq problemsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch updates the PowerMac cpufreq driver. It depends on the addition of the suspend() method (my previous patch) and on the new flag I defined to silence some warnings that are normal for us. It fixes various issues related to cpufreq on pmac, including some crashes on some models when sleeping the machine while in low speed, proper voltage control on some newer machines, and adds voltage control on 750FX based G3 laptops.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
