On AMD Au1550 the static bus controller fails to keep -CE asserted during
chip ready delay on read commands and the NAND chip being used requires this.
So, the current driver allows nand_base.c to drive -CE manually during the
entire sector read. When the PCMCIA driver is enabled however, occasionally
the ECC errors occur on NAND reads. This happens because the PCMCIA driver
polls sockets periodically and reads one of the board's control/status regs
(BCSRs) which are on the same static bus as the NAND flash, and just use
another chip select (and the NOR flash also resides on that bus), so as the
NAND driver forces NAND chip select asserted and the -RE signal is shared, a
contention occurs on the static bus when BCSR or NOR flash is read while we're
reading from NAND.
So, we either can't keep interrupts enabled during the whole NAND sector
read (which is hardly acceptable), or have to implement some interlocking
scheme between multiple drivers (which is painful, and makes me shudder :-).
There's a third way which has proven to work: to force -CE asserted only
while we're waiting for a NAND chip to become ready after a read command,
disabling interrupts for a maximum of 25 microseconds (according to Toshiba
TC58DVM92A1FT00 datasheet -- this chip is mentioned in the board schematics);
for Samsung NAND chip which seems to be actually used this delay is even less,
12 us.

During the last cleanup of the AMD Au1550 NAND driver the old buglet was
reintroduced: as the MEM_STNDCTL register is write-only and seem to always
read as 0x31, read-modify-write to it done in au1xxx_nand_init() will have the
side effect of enabling -RCS0/1 pin override (via bits 4/5 of this reg.), thus
possibly causing a contention on the static bus when the NOR flash (using
-RCS0) or board control status registers (using -RCS2) are read. Luckily, this
goes away with a first NAND access, since au1550_hwcontrol() doesn't try to
read this register before writing anymore.

I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of
sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h
from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h
by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
this disentangling (patch to follow later).
However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.
In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real
patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only
adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any
hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts
will pick it up again in the next round.

When enabled then per-CPU watchdog threads are started, which try to run

callback from the timer interrupt detects this condition and prints out a
warning message and a stack dump (once per lockup incident). The feature
is otherwise non-intrusive, it doesnt try to unlock the box in any way, it
only gets the debug info out, automatically, and on all CPUs affected by

inconsistent, the device aquire code did not reset a variable
after a wakeup and the wakeup handling was not working for

When a hardware controller is available the locking is now
reduced to the hardware controller lock and the waitqueue is
