Need to increment the version number because of the new PCI and sysfs
capabilities of the driver. People maintaining things for distros have
asked that I do this after interface or major functional changes.

Add full driver model support for the IPMI driver. It links in the proper
bus and device support.
It adds an "ipmi" driver interface that has each BMC discovered by the
driver (as a device). These BMCs appear in the devices/platform directory.
If there are multiple interfaces to the same BMC, the driver should
discover this and will only have one BMC entry. The BMC entry will have
pointers to each interface device that connects to it.
The device information (statistics and config information) has not yet been
ported over to the driver model from proc, that will come later.
This work was based on work by Yani Ioannou. I basically rewrote it using
that code as a guide, but he still deserves credit :).

Modify the PCI hanling code for the IPMI driver to use the new method of
tables and registering, and adds more generic PCI handling for IPMI.
Unfortunately, this required a rather large rework of the way the driver
did detection so it would be more event-driven.

Here's a patch that fixes EFI boot for x86 on 2.6.16-rc5-mm3. The
off-by-one is admittedly my fault, but the other two fix up the rest.

Almost all users of the table addresses from the EFI system table want
physical addresses. So rather than doing the pa->va->pa conversion, just keep
physical addresses in struct efi.
This fixes a DMI bug: the efi structure contained the physical SMBIOS address
on x86 but the virtual address on ia64, so dmi_scan_machine() used ioremap()
on a virtual address on ia64.
This is essentially the same as an earlier patch by Matt Tolentino:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112130292316281&w=2
except that this changes all table addresses, not just ACPI addresses.
Matt's original patch was backed out because it caused MCAs on HP sx1000
systems. That problem is resolved by the ioremap() attribute checking added
for ia64.

Pass the size, not a pointer to the size, to efi_mem_attribute_range().
This function validates memory regions for the /dev/mem read/write/mmap paths.
The pointer allows arches to reduce the size of the range, but I think that's
unnecessary complexity. Simplifying it will let me use
efi_mem_attribute_range() to improve the ia64 ioremap() implementation.

free_irq() should not be executed from softirq context.
Found by the lock validator. The fix is to push fd_free_irq() into

- Move the core parser into dmi_scan.c. It can be useful for other
subsystems too.
- Differentiate between field doesn't exist and field is 0 or
unparseable. The first case is likely an old BIOS with broken ACPI,
the later is likely a slightly buggy BIOS where someone forget to
edit the date. Don't blacklist in the later case.

Initramfs initrd images do not need a ramdisk device, so remove this
restriction in Kconfig. BLK_DEV_RAM=n saves about 13k on i386. Also
without ramdisk device there's no need for "dry run", so initramfs unpacks
much faster.
People using cramfs, squashfs, or gzipped ext2/minix initrd images are
probably smart enough not to turn off ramdisk support by accident.

Remove the assumption that driver_register() returns the number of devices
bound to the driver. In fact, it returns zero for success or a negative
error value.
zorro_module_init() used the device count to automatically unregister and
unload drivers that found no devices. That might have worked at one time,
but has been broken for some time because zorro_register_driver() returned
either a negative error or a positive count (never zero). So it could only
unregister on failure, when it's not needed anyway.
This functionality could be resurrected in individual drivers by counting
devices in their .probe() methods.

Today I wondered about /dev/parport<n> after not seeing anything in
drivers/parport register char-major-99. Having PP_MAJOR in
include/linux/major.h would've allowed me to more quickly determine that it
was the ppdev driver driving these.

In latest -mm a number of section mismatch warnings are generated for
floppy.o like the following:
WARNING: drivers/block/floppy.o - Section mismatch: reference to \
.init.data: from .text between 'init_module' (at offset 0x6976) and \
'cleanup_module'
The warning are caused by a reference to floppy_init() which is __init from
init_module() which is not declared __init. Declaring init_module() _init
fixes this.

In latest -mm ide-code.o gave a number of warnings like the following:
WARNING: drivers/ide/ide-core.o - Section mismatch: reference to \
.init.text: from .text between 'init_module' (at offset 0x1f97) and \
'cleanup_module'
The warning was caused by init_module() calling parse_option() and
ide_init() both declared __init.
Declaring init_module() __init fixes the warnings.
