Commands sent to ATAPI tape drives via the SCSI generic (sg) driver are
limited in the amount of data that they can transfer by the max_sectors
value. The max_sectors value is currently calculated according to the
command set for disk drives, which doesn't apply to tape drives. The
default max_sectors value of 256 limits ATAPI tape drive commands to
128 KB. This patch against 2.6.24-rc1 increases the max_sectors value
for tape drives to 65535, which permits tape drive commands to transfer
just under 32 MB.
Tested with a SuperMicro PDSME motherboard, AHCI, and a Sony SDX-570V
SATA tape drive.
Note that some of the chipset drivers also set their own max_sectors
value, which may override the value set in libata-core. I don't have
any of these chipsets to test, so I didn't go messing with them. Also,
ATAPI devices other than tape drives may benefit from similar changes,
but I have only tape drives and disk drives to test.

The Jazz machines have to use the PIT timer for dyntick and highresolution
kernels. This may break because currently just like i386 used to do MIPS
uses two separate spinlocks in the actual PIT code and the PC speaker
code. So switch to do it the same that x86 currently does PIT locking.

This is the clock rate of the i8253 PIT. A MIPS system may not have
a PIT by the symbol is used all over the kernel including some APIs.
So keeping it defined to the number for the PIT is the only sane thing
for now.

* Do not include unnecessary headers.
* Do not mention time.README.
* Do not mention mips_timer_ack.
* Make clocksource_mips static. It is now dedicated to c0_timer.
* Initialize clocksource_mips.read statically.
* Remove null_hpt_read.
* Remove an argument of plat_timer_setup. It is just a placeholder.

When the CONFIG_NET_NS is n there's no need in refcounting

Finally, the zero_it argument can be completely removed from
the callers and from the function prototype.
Besides, fix the checkpatch.pl warnings about using the
assignments inside if-s.
This patch is rather big, and it is a part of the previous one.
I splitted it wishing to make the patches more readable. Hope
this particular split helped.

If the kernel .text is very large, the .fixup section branches
are too far away to be relocated correctly.
Use "sethi %hi(label), reg; jmpl reg + %lo(label); %g0" sequence
instead of the branch to fix this.
There is another case in switch_to() involving a branch, which
is fixed similarly.

This reverts commit fcd239d3d5.

This fixes a build problem with GPIOs on DaVinci. Since it inlines
operations for on-chip GPIOs, it needs some headers to support those
direct register accesses. Those headers won't be included on other
platforms, since they don't have that optimization.

It wants string functions like memcpy() for inline
routines, and these define userland interfaces.
The only clean way to deal with this is to simply
put linux/string.h into unifdef-y and have it
include <string.h> when not-__KERNEL__.
