Three main sets of changes:
1) dmi_get_system_info() return value should have been marked const,
since callers should not be changing that data.
2) const-ify DMI internals, since DMI firmware tables should,
whenever possible, be marked const to ensure we never ever write to
that data area.
3) const-ify DMI API, to enable marking tables const where possible
in low-level drivers.
And if we're really lucky, this might enable some additional
optimizations on the part of the compiler.
The bulk of the changes are #2 and #3, which are interrelated. #1 could
have been a separate patch, but it was so small compared to the others,
it was easier to roll it into this changeset.

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

If 'type' could indeed be NULL, then the test happens way too late as we'd
already have tried to dereference the pointer earlier and looking at the
callers it also turns out that there is no way type can ever actually be
NULL.
So the test is completely pointless and should just be removed.

When we enable the SMCf010 IR device, the Toshiba Portege 4000 BIOS claims
the device is working, but it really isn't configured correctly. The BIOS
*will* configure it, but only if we call _SRS after (1) reversing the order
of the SIR and FIR I/O port regions and (2) changing the IRQ from
active-high to active-low.
This patch addresses the 2.6.22 regression:
"no irda0 interface (2.6.21 was OK), smsc does not find chip"
I tested this on a Portege 4000. The smsc-ircc2 driver correctly detects

Some HP firmware leaves the SMCf010 IRDA device incompletely configured, or
reports the wrong resources in _CRS. As a workaround, when we find such a
device, try to auto-configure the device.
This ignores the _CRS data, picks a config from _PRS, and runs _SRS to
configure the device. This makes smsc-ircc2 work correctly with PNP
resources (with no preconfiguration!) on all the machines I tested.
I think Windows does something like this by default for all devices,
so we should consider doing the same thing in Linux.
This patch addresses part of the 2.6.22 regression:
"no irda0 interface (2.6.21 was OK), smsc does not find chip"
It fixes smsc-ircc2 PNP device detection on HP nc6000, nc6220, nw8000,
nw8240, and possibly other machines.

This series converts i386 and x86_64 legacy serial ports to be platform
devices and prevents probing for them if we have PNP.
This prevents double discovery, where a device was found both by the legacy
probe and by 8250_pnp.
This also prevents the serial driver from claiming IRDA devices (unless they
have a UART PNP ID). The serial legacy probe sometimes assumed the wrong IRQ,
so the user had to use "setserial" to fix it.
Removing the need for setserial to make IRDA devices work seems good, but it
does break some things. In particular, you may need to keep setserial from
poking legacy UART stuff back in by doing something like "dpkg-reconfigure
setserial" with the "kernel" option. Otherwise, the setserial-discovered
"UART" will claim resources and prevent the IRDA driver from loading.
This patch:
If we can discover devices using PNP, we can skip some legacy probes. This
flag ("pnp_platform_devices") indicates that PNPBIOS or PNPACPI is enabled and
should tell us about builtin devices.

Note that per advice from Arjan, the "export" scope has been been minimized to
avoid the hundred-plus bytes needed to support access from modules. In this
case, the symbol is only needed by statically linked kernel code that lives
outside the drivers/pnp directory.

The ACPIPnP implementation had the understanding of Linux resource flags very
wrong, resulting in a nonfunctional implementation of DMA resource
allocation.
This was usually not a problem, since almost no on-board PnP devices use ISA
DMA, with the exception of ECP parallel ports. Even with that, parallel port
DMA is preconfigured by the BIOS, so this routine isn't normally called.
Except in the case where somebody does 'rmmod parport_pc; modprobe
parport_pc', where the rmmod case disables the ECP parallel port resources,
and they need to be enabled again to initialize the module. This didn't
work, resulting in a non-printing printer.
The application doing exactly the above to force reprobing of printers is
the YaST printer module. Thus without this fix YaST wedged the printer when
configuring it, and was not able to print a test page.

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.
