Implement support for the E-Ink Metronome controller. It provides an mmapable
interface to the controller using defio support. It was tested with a gumstix
pxa255 with Vizplex media using Xfbdev and various X clients such as xeyes,
xpdf, xloadimage.
This patch also fixes the following bug: Defio would cause a hang on write
access to the framebuffer as the page fault would be called ad-infinitum. It
fixes fb_defio by setting the mapping to be used by page_mkclean.

A driver that had been marked as BROKEN for such a long time seems to be
unlikely to be revived in the forseeable future.
But if anyone wants to ever revive this driver, the code is still present in

This essentially reverts commit 71fc47a9ad
("ACPI: basic initramfs DSDT override support"), because the code simply
isn't ready.
It did ugly things to the init sequence to populate the rootfs image
early, but that just ended up showing other problems with the whole
approach. The fact is, the VFS layer simply isn't initialized this
early, and the relevant ACPI code should either run much later, or this
shouldn't be done at all.
For 2.6.25, we'll just pick the latter option. We can revisit this
concept later if necessary.

The lguest launcher appends a space to the kernel command line (if kernel
arguments are specified on its command line). This space is unneeded. More
importantly, this appended space will make Red Hat's nash script interpreter
(used in a Fedora style initramfs) add an empty argument to init's command
line. This empty argument will make kernel arguments like "init=/bin/bash"
fail (because the shell will try to execute a script with an empty name).
This could be considered a bug in nash, but is easily fixed in the lguest
launcher too.

Add a <linux/gpio.h> defining fail/warn stubs for GPIO calls on platforms that
don't support the GPIO programming interface. That includes the arch-specific
implementation glue otherwise.
This facilitates a new model for GPIO usage: drivers that can use GPIOs if
they're available, but don't require them. One example of such a driver is
NAND driver for various FreeScale chips. On platforms update with GPIO
support, they can be used instead of a worst-case delay to verify that the
BUSY signal is off.

The definitions of struct pci_device_id arrays should generally follow
the same pattern across the entire kernel. This macro defines this
array as const and puts it into the __devinitconst section.
There are currently many definitions scattered about the kernel that
omit the __devinitdata modifier despite the documentation stating that
it should always be there. These definitions really also should have
been const, which wasn't possible before but has become so with the
addition of the __devinitconst attribute.
Furthermore, there are definitions that use "const" and __devinitdata,
which is explicitly wrong but the compiler doesn't catch section
mismatches if there's only one such one case in the module (which is
often the case).
Adding the __devinitconst modifier where there was nothing before buys
us memory. Adding the const modifier gives the compiler a chance to do
its thing. Changing __devinitdata to __devinitconst where it was wrong
actually fixes some compiler errors in older (mid-release) kernels that
were patched over by "removing" the section attribute altogether (which
wastes memory).
This macro makes it pretty difficult to get this definition wrong in
the future...

During the last step of hibernation in the "platform" mode (with the
help of ACPI) we use the suspend code, including the devices'
->suspend() methods, to prepare the system for entering the ACPI S4
system sleep state.
But at least for some devices the operations performed by the
->suspend() callback in that case must be different from its operations
during regular suspend.
For this reason, introduce the new PM event type PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE and
pass it to the device drivers' ->suspend() methods during the last phase
of hibernation, so that they can distinguish this case and handle it as
appropriate. Modify the drivers that handle PM_EVENT_SUSPEND in a
special way and need to handle PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE in the same way.
These changes are necessary to fix a hibernation regression related
to the i915 driver (ref. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/22/488).
