Impact: cleanup
In asm/system.h moved out __switch_to from CONFIG_X86_32 as it is common for

Impact: reward non-stop TSCs with good TSC-based clocksources, etc.
Add support for CPUID_0x80000007_Bit8 on Intel CPUs as well. This bit means
that the TSC is invariant with C/P/T states and always runs at constant
frequency.
With Intel CPUs, we have 3 classes
* CPUs where TSC runs at constant rate and does not stop n C-states
* CPUs where TSC runs at constant rate, but will stop in deep C-states
* CPUs where TSC rate will vary based on P/T-states and TSC will stop in deep
C-states.
To cover these 3, one feature bit (CONSTANT_TSC) is not enough. So, add a
second bit (NONSTOP_TSC). CONSTANT_TSC indicates that the TSC runs at
constant frequency irrespective of P/T-states, and NONSTOP_TSC indicates
that TSC does not stop in deep C-states.
CPUID_0x8000000_Bit8 indicates both these feature bit can be set.
We still have CONSTANT_TSC _set_ and NONSTOP_TSC _not_set_ on some older Intel
CPUs, based on model checks. We can use TSC on such CPUs for time, as long as
those CPUs do not support/enter deep C-states.

Merge itto in x86/tsc because an upcoming patch relies on a new
cpuid bit defined in the x86/cpufeature branch.

A bug in the fusion driver was exposed by the switch to block timeout.
Basically, drivers are supposed to terminate commands once error
handling begins on them. The fusion apparently wasn't doing this.
Under the old timeout regime, completions on terminated commands would
by and large get ignored because of the way command timeouts used to
work. The new block timers are very intolerant to this, though,
becuase the request gets cleaned and freed.

Impact: auto-enable HPET on Fujitsu u9200
HPET timer is listed in the ACPI table, but needs a quirk entry in order to
work. Unfortunately, the quirk code runs after first HPET hpet_enable() which
has already determined that the timer doesn't work (reads 0xFFFFFFFF). This
patch allows hpet_enable() to be called again after running the quirk code.

Impact: remove dead/incorrect code
Currently there is no chipset specific ucode. The checks are incorrect
anyway (e.g. pci device IDs are 16 bit and not 8 bit).
Thus I remove the stuff for the time being and will reintroduce it if
it's foreseeable that it is really needed.

When the tuner modules were moved to common/tuners, a separate customize
option were added for tuners. However, the automatic selection of the
tuners were still using the older option.
This causes that the automatic selection to fail, if DVB_FE_CUSTOMISE is
selected. Also, since those tuners are now under MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE
menu, if you unset MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE, you can't manually select the
tuners.
This patch fixes this error by replacing DVB_FE_CUSTOMISE by
MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE on all places were a tuner is selected.
The patch were generated by this small script:
for i in `find drivers/media -name Kconfig`; do
cat $i|perl -ne 's/(MEDIA_TUNER.*)DVB_FE_CUSTOMISE/\1MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE/; print $_' >a
mv a $i
done
Also, manually reordered the tuner entries.

At some point the Flexcop driver was changed to support newer Flexcop cards.
These modifications however broke the detection of Cablestar 2 DVB-C cards.
The reason is that the earlier version of the driver used to retry
unsuccessful i2c operations. The demodulator of Cablestar 2 cards (stv0297)
seems to be very dependent on these retries and adding them back fixes
Cablestar detection.
This patch restores this behaviour for the CableStar2.

A user noticed that there would continue to be 4-6 keypresses even after the
user stopped holding down the button. This was because we were not reading
the bulk pipe faster than the firmware was injecting information, which would
result in a backlog.
Make the query interval faster, and increase the number of cycles before we
start repeating to compensate.

on 64-bit x86 the physical memory limit is controlled by the sparsemem
bits - which are 44 bits right now. But MAXMEM (the max pfn number
e820 parsing will allow to enter our sizing routines) is set to
0x00003fffffffffff, i.e. 46 bits - that's too large because it overlaps
into the vmalloc range.
So couple MAXMEM to MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS, and add a comment that the
maximum of MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS is 45 bits.

Impact: cleanup, code robustization
The __swp_...() macros silently relied upon which bits are used for
_PAGE_FILE and _PAGE_PROTNONE. After having changed _PAGE_PROTNONE in
our Xen kernel to no longer overlap _PAGE_PAT, live locks and crashes
were reported that could have been avoided if these macros properly
used the symbolic constants. Since, as pointed out earlier, for Xen
Dom0 support mainline likewise will need to eliminate the conflict
between _PAGE_PAT and _PAGE_PROTNONE, this patch does all the necessary
adjustments, plus it introduces a mechanism to check consistency
between MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT and the actual encoding macros.
This also fixes a latent bug in that x86-64 used a 6-bit mask in
__swp_type(), and if MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT was increased beyond 5 in (the
seemingly unrelated) linux/swap.h, this would have resulted in a
collision with _PAGE_FILE.
Non-PAE 32-bit code gets similarly adjusted for its pte_to_pgoff() and
pgoff_to_pte() calculations.

documented the fields of snd_ca0106_details. spi_dac is always

this will change the behavior. But, supposing it's rather a typo,
