A&W6410 board uses Samsung S3C6410 SoC and it is registered with 2183.
Framebuffer and ethernet devices are supported currently.
Unnecessary header file is removed.
Fix to use __raw_writel() and __raw_readl() for accessing mapped address.
Thank you for your comments.

Using an active high IRQ ensures that the WM8350 interrupt handling
does not spin when used with a SMDK6410 which has not had R20 removed

The SMDK6410 supports pluggable PMIC boards. One such board is the
Wolfson Microelectronics 1190-EV1 for the WM8350 PMICs. This patch
introduces initial support for this module. Further patches will
add additional integration with the system as support for the
S3C6410 and other devices on the system improves.

Add power management support to the VIC by registering
each VIC as a system device to get suspend/resume
events going.
Since the VIC registeration is done early, we need to
record the VICs in a static array which is used to add
the system devices later once the initcalls are run. This
means there is now a configuration value for the number
of VICs in the system.

Move the GPIO suspend/resume support inline with the gpiolib support
so that it will work with both the S3C24XX and S3C64XX series.
The s3c_gpio_chip is extended to have a pm callback and a save block
to keep the state of the GPIO over suspend, and the code from the
s3c24xx implementation is added to a new common file.
The suspend process now uses the list of registered chips to go through
saving and restoring each one as appropriate, using the pm callback to
select the appropriate routine depending on the type of control register
present.
This change also means that any additional GPIO added should not require
changes to the PM.

Add support for saving the state of the IRQ registers over suspend.
This requires moving the S3C64XX UART registers into <plat/regs-serial.h>
and adding irq-pm.c which saves the state of all the IRQ registers.
The irq-pm.c saves all the IRQ registers, including the IRQ_EINT and
IRQ_EINT_GROUP registers as it was easier than adding three different
files. Also ensuring that all the registers are restored to the same
state as before suspend is considered to be the best thing to do.
Note, we do not suspend the VIC here, this is done by the VIC driver
itself.

A regression was introduced in hg changeset 33810c734a0d, which resulted in
a kernel panic whenever the device was disconnected from USB. The call to
4l2_device_register() was overwriting the pointer for usb_set_intfdata(), so
when au0828_usb_disconnect() was called, the usb_get_intfdata() returned a
pointer to the v4l2_device instead of the au0828_dev structure.

Currently drivers/media drivers are linked very early - directly after
base, block, misc, and mfd and before ata, scsi, ide, input, firewire,
usb, and i2c. This breaks static build of video4linux drivers, that use
generic CPU i2c adapter drivers and the v4l2-subdev subsystem, because
during video4linux probing the v4l2-subdev core requires a struct
i2c_adapter context, which cannot be satisfied before the i2c subsystem is
initialised. Moving drivers/media after drivers/i2c fixes this problem.
The best way to trigger action is by submitting a patch:-) So, let's see
what comes out of it - on the one hand I don't see any reason why media
has to be linked this early, and nobody was able to give me one yesterday
as this problem has been discussed on linux-media, OTOH, maybe indeed it
would be better to move i2c the whole way up above media, but that'd be
much bigger of a change, I think.

After experimenting with kexec with the last merges after 2.6.29, I've
had some problems when probing e100. It would not read the eeprom. After
some bisects, I realized this has been like that since forever (at least
2.6.18). The problem is that shutdown is doing the same thing that
suspend does and puts the device in D3 state. I couldn't find a way to
get the device back to a sane state in the probe function. So, based on
some similar patches from Rafael J. Wysocki for e1000, e1000e, and ixgbe,
I wrote this one for e100.

The Bluetooth 2.1 specification introduced four different security modes
that can be mapped using Legacy Pairing and Simple Pairing. With the
usage of Simple Pairing it is required that all connections (except
the ones for SDP) are encrypted. So even the low security requirement
mandates an encrypted connection when using Simple Pairing. When using
Legacy Pairing (for Bluetooth 2.0 devices and older) this is not required
since it causes interoperability issues.
To support this properly the low security requirement translates into
different host controller transactions depending if Simple Pairing is
supported or not. However in case of Simple Pairing the command to
switch on encryption after a successful authentication is not triggered
for the low security mode. This patch fixes this and actually makes
the logic to differentiate between Simple Pairing and Legacy Pairing
a lot simpler.

The Bluetooth stack uses a reference counting for all established ACL
links and if no user (L2CAP connection) is present, the link will be
terminated to save power. The problem part is the dedicated pairing
when using Legacy Pairing (Bluetooth 2.0 and before). At that point
no user is present and pairing attempts will be disconnected within
10 seconds or less. In previous kernel version this was not a problem
since the disconnect timeout wasn't triggered on incoming connections
for the first time. However this caused issues with broken host stacks
that kept the connections around after dedicated pairing. When the
support for Simple Pairing got added, the link establishment procedure
needed to be changed and now causes issues when using Legacy Pairing
When using Simple Pairing it is possible to do a proper reference
counting of ACL link users. With Legacy Pairing this is not possible
since the specification is unclear in some areas and too many broken
Bluetooth devices have already been deployed. So instead of trying to
deal with all the broken devices, a special pairing timeout will be
introduced that increases the timeout to 60 seconds when pairing is
triggered.
If a broken devices now puts the stack into an unforeseen state, the
worst that happens is the disconnect timeout triggers after 120 seconds
instead of 4 seconds. This allows successful pairings with legacy and
broken devices now.

The x_tables are organized with a table structure and a per-cpu copies
of the counters and rules. On older kernels there was a reader/writer
lock per table which was a performance bottleneck. In 2.6.30-rc, this
was converted to use RCU and the counters/rules which solved the performance
problems for do_table but made replacing rules much slower because of
the necessary RCU grace period.
This version uses a per-cpu set of spinlocks and counters to allow to
table processing to proceed without the cache thrashing of a global
reader lock and keeps the same performance for table updates.

In 2.6.25 we added UDP mem accounting.
This unfortunatly added a penalty when a frame is transmitted, since
we have at TX completion time to call sock_wfree() to perform necessary
memory accounting. This calls sock_def_write_space() and utimately
scheduler if any thread is waiting on the socket.
Thread(s) waiting for an incoming frame was scheduled, then had to sleep
again as event was meaningless.
(All threads waiting on a socket are using same sk_sleep anchor)
This adds lot of extra wakeups and increases latencies, as noted
by Christoph Lameter, and slows down softirq handler.
Reference : http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=124060437012283&w=2
Fortunatly, Davide Libenzi recently added concept of keyed wakeups
into kernel, and particularly for sockets (see commit
37e5540b3c9d838eb20f2ca8ea2eb8072271e403
epoll keyed wakeups: make sockets use keyed wakeups)
Davide goal was to optimize epoll, but this new wakeup infrastructure
can help non epoll users as well, if they care to setup an appropriate
handler.
This patch introduces new DEFINE_WAIT_FUNC() helper and uses it
in wait_for_packet(), so that only relevant event can wakeup a thread
blocked in this function.
Trace of function calls from bnx2 TX completion bnx2_poll_work() is :
__kfree_skb()
skb_release_head_state()
sock_wfree()
sock_def_write_space()
__wake_up_sync_key()
__wake_up_common()
receiver_wake_function() : Stops here since thread is waiting for an INPUT
