Change the way how switchid value is set. Local counter variable does not
provide unified way to identify switch devices in a system with multiple
processors. Using local counter leads to the situation when the same RIO
switch has different switch ID for each processor. Replacing local
counter with unique portion of the Component Tag provides unified
reference to the switch by every processor in the system.

Add setting links between rio_dev objects into the discovery process.
This needed to report device connections on agent (non-host) processors
that perform RIO discovery. Originally, these links have been introduced
for enumerating host only to support error management.

Add definition of the unique device identifier field in the component tag.
RIO_CTAG_UDEVID does not take all 32 bits of the component tag value to
allow future extensions to the component tag use.
Selected size of the RIO_CTAG_UDEVID field (17 bits) is sufficient to
accommodate maximum number of endpoints in large RIO network (16-bit id)
plus switches.

Convert RIO switches device structures (rio_dev + rio_switch) into a
single allocation unit.
This change is based on the fact that RIO switches are using common RIO
device objects anyway. Allocating RIO switch objects as RIO devices with
added space for switch information simplifies handling of RIO switch
devices.

Change code to use one storage location common for switches and endpoints.
This eliminates unnecessary device type checks during basic access
operations. Logic that assigns destid to RIO devices stays unchanged - as
before, switches use an associated destid because they do not have their
own.

Commit 34aacb2920 ("procfs: Use generic_file_llseek in /proc/kcore") broke
seeking on /proc/kcore. This changes it back to use default_llseek in
order to restore the original behavior.
The problem with generic_file_llseek is that it only allows seeks up to
inode->i_sb->s_maxbytes, which is 2GB-1 on procfs, where the memory file
offset values in the /proc/kcore PT_LOAD segments may exceed or start
beyond that offset value.
A similar revert was made for /proc/vmcore.

A call to va_start() must always be followed by a call to va_end() in the
same function. In fs/reiserfs/prints.c::print_block() this is not always
the case. If 'bh' is NULL we'll return without calling va_end().
One could add a call to va_end() before the 'return' statement, but it's
nicer to just move the call to va_start() after the test for 'bh' being
NULL.

The newer drivers/gpio/cs5535-gpio.c replaces drivers/misc/cs5535_gpio.c.
The new driver has been in the tree for a little while, and has received
some testing; it's time to mark the old one as deprecated. I'm thinking
removal around 2.6.40 would be good, provided we're not missing critical
functionality in the newer driver.

Drop the old geode_gpio crud, as well as the raw outl() calls; instead,
use the Linux GPIO API where possible, and the cs5535_gpio API in other
places.
Note that we don't actually clean up the driver properly yet (once loaded,
it always remains loaded). That'll come later..
This patch is necessary for building the driver.

functionality
This adds (well, re-adds actually) handling for events/IRQs through cs5535
GPIOs. In the wild and wooly world of CS5535, setup_event() is for
assigning an IRQ to a GPIO filter/event pair, and set_irq() sets up the
pair to trigger IRQs.
These should really only be used in highly platform-specific drivers (such
as OLPC's DCON driver). Sadly, because set_irq() uses MSRs, this causes
the driver to become X86-specific.

rtc-cmos was setting suspend/resume hooks at the device_driver level.
However, the platform bus code (drivers/base/platform.c) only looks for
resume hooks at the dev_pm_ops level, or within the platform_driver.
Switch rtc_cmos to use dev_pm_ops so that suspend/resume code is executed
again.

: The user visible symptom in our (XO laptop) case was that rtcwake would

It seems there is a small problem of VGA palette corruption on EFI
machine. When the kernel initializes the architecture, it checks if the
machine is a EFI machine and assumes that a VGA console can exist.
When it initializes the console in vgacon_startup it checks if it can
really use the VGA console. I think this is where a check is missing.
Currently, the function can fail if a VESA boot mode is detected but not if
a EFI boot mode was used.
Thus vgacon_startup() doesn't fail and initialize the video card for a real
VGA mode. This function changes the first 16entries of the VGA palette.
When the efifb driver kicks in, the palette is not restored to default
ramp value, thus the 16 first entry remain in a modified state. The
following patch prevent this corruption.

This cleans up a few bits in binfmt_elf.c and binfmts.h:
- the hasvdso field in struct linux_binfmt is unused, so remove it and
the only initialization of it
- the elf_map CPP symbol is not defined anywhere in the kernel, so
remove an unnecessary #ifndef elf_map
- reduce excessive indentation in elf_format's initializer
- add missing spaces, remove extraneous spaces
No functional changes, but tested on x86 (32 and 64 bit), powerpc (32 and
64 bit), sparc64, arm, and alpha.

On some architectures __kernel_suseconds_t is int. On these archs struct
timeval has padding bytes at the end. This struct is copied to userspace
with these padding bytes uninitialized. This leads to leaking of contents
of kernel stack memory.
