The kernel on-demand loop device instantiation breaks several user space
tools as the tools are not ready to cope with the "on-demand feature". Fix
it by instantiate default 8 loop devices and also reinstate max_loop module
parameter.

This patch converts the ipv4_devconf config members (everything except
sysctl) to an array. This allows easier manipulation which will be
needed later on to provide better management of default config values.

The statistics block DMA on 5708 can be messed up occasionally on the
average of about once per hour. If the user is reading the counters
within one second after the corruption, the counters will be all
messed up. One second later, the counters will be ok again until the
next corruption occurs.
The workaround is to disable the periodic statistics DMA. Instead,
we manually trigger the DMA once a second in bnx2_timer(). This
manual trigger of the DMA avoids the problem.
As a consequence, we can only allow 0 or 1 second settings for
ethtool -C statistics block.

Add missing code to enable DMA on 5709 A1. The bit is a no-op on A0

For correctness, we need to wait for the MEM_INIT bit to be cleared
in the BNX2_CTX_COMMAND register before proceeding.
[Added return -EBUSY when the MEM_INIT bit doesn't clear, suggested
by Jeff Garzik.]

There's a bug in the driver that only initializes half of the context
memory on the 5708. Surprisingly, this works most of the time except
for some occasional netdev watchdogs when sending a lot of 64-byte
packets. The fix is to add the missing code to initialize the 2nd
halves of all context memory.

Fix the following warnings in promcon:
WARNING: o-sparc64/drivers/video/console/built-in.o(.text+0x480): Section mismatch: reference to .init.data:promfont_unitable (between 'promcon_init_unimap' and 'promcon_init')
WARNING: o-sparc64/drivers/video/console/built-in.o(.text+0x488): Section mismatch: reference to .init.data:promfont_unitable (between 'promcon_init_unimap' and 'promcon_init')

WARNING: o-sparc64/drivers/video/console/built-in.o(.text+0x490): Section mismatch: reference to .init.data:promfont_unicount (between 'promcon_init_unimap' and 'promcon_init')
The warnings happens because the function: promcon_init_unimap()
references promfont_unitable and promfont_unicount which are marked
__initdata by the conmakehash command in the drivers/video/console/Makefile
Fix the warning by removing the __initdata marker on the two variables.

Several people have reported LITE-ON LTR-48246S detection failed
because SETXFER fails. It seems the device raises IRQ too early after
SETXFER. This is controller independent. The same problem has been
reported for different controllers.
So, now we have pata_via where the controller raises IRQ before it's
ready after SETXFER and a device which does similar thing. This patch
makes libata always execute SETXFER via polling. As this only happens
during EH, performance impact is nil. Setting ATA_TFLAG_POLLING is
also moved from issue hot path to ata_dev_set_xfermode() - the only
place where SETXFER can be issued.
Note that ATA_TFLAG_POLLING applies only to drivers which implement
SFF TF interface and use libata HSM. More advanced controllers ignore
the flag. This doesn't matter for this fix as SFF TF controllers are
the problematic ones.
