Which will cut down the cost of RDHWR $29 which is used to obtain the
TLS pointer and so far being emulated in software down to a single cycle
operation.

This is to break the code of people who think they are supposed to scribble
into the pci device structure - it's off limits.

This is an optimised implementation of early printk() for the DECstation.
After the recent conversion to a MIPS-specific generic routine using a
character-by-character output the performance dropped significantly.
This change reverts to the previous speed -- even at 9600 bps of the
serial console the difference is visible with a naked eye; I presume for a
framebuffer it is even worse (it may depend on exactly which one is used
though).
Additionally the change includes a fix for a problem that the old
implementation had -- the format used would not actually limit the length
of the string output. This new implementation uses a local buffer to deal
with it -- even with this additional copying it is much faster than the
generic function.
Plus this driver is registered much earlier than the generic one,
allowing one to see critical messages, such as one about an incorrect CPU
setting used, that are produced beforehand. :-)

There are no I/O ports on the DECstation whatsoever in any configuration
as neither the CPU nor the peripheral buses used have a concept of such.

This patch adds support for the generic GPIO API to Au1x00 boards. It requires
the generic GPIO patch for MIPS boards by Yoichi Yuasa. Now there is a MIPS
target using it, can you queue these patchset for 2.6.22 ? Thank you very
much in advance.

Use standard missing-syscalls with EXTRA_CFLAGS instead of duplicating
the command. And move the archprepare rule before the archclean rule.
Suggested by Franck Bui-Huu. Also add "echo" to show the target ABI.
