This patch adds support for feature fixups in modules. This involves
adding support for R_PPC64_REL64 relocs to the 64 bits module loader.
It also modifies modpost.c to ignore the powerpc fixup sections (or it
would warn when used in .init.text).

Some people want to do crazy things like pass multiple directories as the
value of $(SUBDIRS) or $M. Mostly this kinda works, except that
Makefile.modpost constructs a modpost commandline which fails modpost's
argument parsing. This patch fixes that little wrinkle.

The driver for /proc/config.gz consumes rather a lot of memory and it is in
fact possible to build it as a module.
In some ways this is a bit risky, because the .config which is used for
compiling kernel/configs.c isn't necessarily the same as the .config which was
used to build vmlinux.
But OTOH the potential memory savings are decent, and it'd be fairly dumb to
build your configs.o with a different .config.

<ESC><ESC> is used to step one back in the dialogs.
When lxdialog became built-in pressing <ESC> once would cause one step back

This patch - based on concept from Roman Zippel <zippel@linux-m68k.org> -
makes one <ESC> a noop and pressing <ESC><ESC> will cause one step backward.
In addition the final yes/no dialog now has the option to go back to the

to configuring the kernel without saving and starting all over again.

o Moved build of dialog routings to kconfig Makefile
o menubox + checklist uses a new item list to hold all menu items
o in util.c implmented helper function to deal with item list
o menubox now uses parameters to save scroll state (avoids temp file)
o textbox now get text to be displayed as parameter and not a file
o make sure to properly delete subwin's before main windows
o killed unused files: lxdialog.c msgbox.c
o modified return value for ESC to match direct calling
o in a few places the code has been adjusted to 80 char wide
o in textbox a small refactoring was made to make code remotely readable
o in mconf removed all unused stuff (functions/variables)

a) pressing ESC twice will be interpreted as two ESC presses
b) resize does not work. menuconfig needs to be restarted to be adjusted

Add modalias attribute support for the almost forgotten now EISA bus and
(at least some) EISA-aware modules.
The modalias entry looks like (for an 3c509 NIC):
eisa:sTCM5093
and the in-module alias like:
eisa:sTCM5093*
The patch moves struct eisa_device_id declaration from include/linux/eisa.h
to include/linux/mod_devicetable.h (so that the former now #includes the
latter), adds proper MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(eisa, ...) statements for all
drivers with EISA IDs I found (some drivers already have that DEVICE_TABLE
declared), and adds recognision of __mod_eisa_device_table to
scripts/mod/file2alias.c so that proper modules.alias will be generated.
There's no support for /lib/modules/$kver/modules.eisamap, as it's not used
by any existing tools, and because with in-kernel modalias mechanism those
maps are obsolete anyway.
The rationale for this patch is:
a) to make EISA bus to act as other busses with modalias
support, to unify driver loading
b) to foget about EISA finally - with this patch, kernel
(who still supports EISA) will be the only one who knows
how to choose the necessary drivers for this bus ;)

Current gcc generates calls not jumps to noreturn functions. When that happens the
return address can point to the next function, which confuses the unwinder.
This patch works around it by marking asynchronous exception
frames in contrast normal call frames in the unwind information. Then teach
the unwinder to decode this.
For normal call frames the unwinder now subtracts one from the address which avoids
this problem. The standard libgcc unwinder uses the same trick.
It doesn't include adjustment of the printed address (i.e. for the original
example, it'd still be kernel_math_error+0 that gets displayed, but the
unwinder wouldn't get confused anymore.
This only works with binutils 2.6.17+ and some versions of H.J.Lu's 2.6.16
unfortunately because earlier binutils don't support .cfi_signal_frame

At stage 2 modpost utility is used to check modules. In case of unresolved

IMHO it is a good idea to fail compilation process in case of unresolved
symbols (at least in modules coming with kernel), since usually such errors
are left unnoticed, but kernel modules are broken.
- new option '-w' is added to modpost:
if option is specified, modpost only warns about unresolved symbols

Add a bus for the adjunct processor interface. Up to 64 devices can
be connect to the ap bus interface, each device with 16 domains. That
makes 1024 message queues. The interface is asynchronous, the answer
to a message sent to a queue needs to be received at some later point
in time. Unfortunately the interface does not provide interrupts when
a message reply is pending. So the ap bus needs to implement some
fancy polling, each active queue is polled once per 1/HZ second or
continuously if an idle cpus exsists and the poll thread is activ
(see poll_thread parameter).
The ap bus uses the sysfs path /sys/bus/ap and has two bus attributes,
ap_domain and config_time. The ap_domain selects one of the 16 domains
to be used for this system. This limits the maximum number of ap devices
to 64. The config_time attribute contains the number of seconds between
two ap bus scans to find new devices.
The ap bus uses the modalias entries of the form "ap:tN" to autoload
the ap driver for hardware type N. Currently known types are:
3 - PCICC, 4 - PCICA, 5 - PCIXCC, 6 - CEX2A and 7 - CEX2C.

We generate an <asm/foo.h> which includes either <asm-$ARCH/foo.h> or
<asm-$ALTARCH/foo.h> as appropriate. But we were doing this dependent on
whether the file in question existed in the _unexported_ tree, not the
exported tree. So if a file was exported to userspace in one asm- directory
but not the other, the generated file in asm/ was incorrect.
This only changed the failure mode if it _was_ included from a nice #error to
a less explicable #include failure -- but it also gave false errors in 'make
headers_check' output. Fix it by looking in the right place instead.
