This patches adds the "nbds_max" parameter to the nbd kernel module, which
limits the number of nbds allocated. Previously, always all 128 entries
were allocated unconditionally, which used to waste resources and
needlessly flood the hotplug system with events. (Defaults to 16 now.)

This is take two of a patch that should have appeared two days ago, before
yesterday's "remote control" patch for the same card.
This patch sets unconnected GPIO to Output to keep them from floating (just
good driver writing practice, being nice to the chip), and uses GPIO16 to
switch TV vs. FM - this pin switches inputs onto the tuner, as well as the
audio output from the tuner into the 7135 SIF input. Consequently, FM
radio support is being un-commented because it's now working (sort of, see
below).
These two patches get the card almost fully operational; there appears to
be a bug in tda8290.c remaining that puts an offset onto the tuned
frequency in FM radio mode. We're investigating.

I noticed an occasional crash on wakeup from sleep on my powerbook
(strangly never happened before, probably timing related) that appears to
be due to a dangling interrupt while the chip is put to sleep and beeing
reset on wakeup.
This patch fixes is by disabling the irq in the ide pmac driver while
asleep and only re-enable it after the chip has been fully reset. This is
safe to do so as the interrupt of these apple IDE cells is never shared.

This patch adds UCFR_RFDIV setting into i.MX serial driver.
This is required, if loader does not fully agree with Linux kernel
about UART setup manner. Linux only blindly expected some values until
now. This should enable to use even serial ports not recognized by
boot-loader as for example third UART found in the bluethoot module.
Patch also enables to detect original setup baudrate in more cases.

In order to properly fix some issues with cpufreq vs. sleep on
PowerBooks, I had to add a suspend callback to the pmac_cpufreq driver.
I must force a switch to full speed before sleep and I switch back to
previous speed on resume.
I also added a driver flag to disable the warnings in suspend/resume
since it is expected in this case to have different speed (and I want it
to fixup the jiffies properly).

We were supporting 24bpp. However, the pixel organisation in
memory was 0RGB, so it was 24bpp in 32bit words. This means
we're actually supporting 32bpp and not 24bpp.

framebuffer when changing display resolutions.

tg3_restart_ints() is called to re-enable interrupts after tg3_poll()
has finished all the work. It calls tg3_cond_int() to force an interrupt
if the status block updated bit is set. The updated bit will be set if
there is a new status block update sometime during tg3_poll() and it can
be very often. The worst part is that even if all the work has been
processed, the updated bit remains set and an interrupt will be forced
unnecessarily.
The fix is to call tg3_has_work() instead to determine if new work is
posted before forcing an interrupt. The way to force an interrupt is
also changed to use "coalesce_now" instead of "SETINT". The former is
generally a safer way to force the interrupt.
Also deleted the first parameter to tg3_has_work() which is unused.

This patch fixes a bug that causes tg3_has_work() to always return 1.
rx work is determined by comparing tp->rx_rcb_ptr with the current hw
producer index. The hw producer index is modulo the ring size, but tp-
>rx_rcb_ptr is a free running counter that goes up beyond the ring size.
After the ring wraps around once, tg3_has_work() will always return 1.
The fix is to always do modulo arithmetic on tp->rx_rcb_ptr.
