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.

On many laptops (Compaq, HP) the touchpad is so slow responding
to reset that keyboard controller times out. The device is reset
nonetheless and works fine. Kill the "synaptics reset failed"
error; if device is not working then other parts of
synaptics_query_hardware() will fail anyway.

Encode synaptics model in psmouse->model so it will be
exported via sysfs as input_dev->id.version and become
visible for applications.

Allow ALPS, LOGIPS2PP, LIFEBOOK, TRACKPOINT and TOUCHKIT protocol
extensions of psmouse to be disabled during compilation. This will
allow users save some memory when they are sure that they will only
use a certain type of mice.

Some people report that they need psmouse module unloaded
for suspend to ram/disk to work properly. Let's make port
cleanup behave the same way as driver unload.
This fixes "bad state" roblem on various HP laptops, such
as nx7400.

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.

Toshiba Protege M300 also requires the same workaround as Satellites
and Dynabooks - Synaptics report rate should be lowered to 40pps
(from 80), otherwise KBC starts losing keypresses.

Synaptics driver used child->type to select either 3-byte or 4-byte
packet size for the pass-through port; this gives wrong results for
the newer protocols. Change the check to use child->pktsize instead.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
