Flooding the console with error messages for every RX FIFO overrun,
checksum error and framing error isn't very sensible. Each of these
errors can occur during normal operation, so stop printk'ing error
messages for RX errors at all.

Ray Lehtiniemi reported that an incoming UDP packet flood can lock up
the ep93xx ethernet driver. Herbert Valerio Riedel noted that due to
the way ep93xx_eth manages the RX/TXstatus rings, it cannot distinguish
a full ring from an empty one, and correctly suggested that this was
likely to be causing this lockup to occur.
Instead of looking at the hardware's RX/TXstatus ring write pointers
to determine when to stop reading from those rings, we should just check
every individual RX/TXstatus descriptor's valid bit instead, since there
is no other way to distinguish an empty ring from a full ring, and if
there is a descriptor waiting, we take the hit of reading the descriptor
from memory anyway.

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

This is more preparation for adding support for the new Atmel AT91SAM9
processors.
Changes include:
- Replace AT91_BASE_* with AT91RM9200_BASE_*
- Replace AT91_ID_* with AT91RM9200_ID_*
- ROM, SRAM and UHP address definitions moved to at91rm9200.h.
- The raw AT91_P[ABCD]_* definitions are now depreciated in favour of
the GPIO API.

First of all it is unnecessary to allocate a new skb in skb_pad since
the existing one is not shared. More importantly, our hard_start_xmit
interface does not allow a new skb to be allocated since that breaks
requeueing.
This patch uses pskb_expand_head to expand the existing skb and linearize
it if needed. Actually, someone should sift through every instance of
skb_pad on a non-linear skb as they do not fit the reasons why this was
originally created.
Incidentally, this fixes a minor bug when the skb is cloned (tcpdump,
TCP, etc.). As it is skb_pad will simply write over a cloned skb. Because
of the position of the write it is unlikely to cause problems but still
it's best if we don't do it.

EPXA10DB seems to be uncared for:
- the "PLD" code has never been merged
- no one has reported that this platform has been broken since
at least 2.6.10
- interest seems to have dried up around March 2003.
Therefore, remove EPXA10DB support.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
