CONFIG_PPC instead.

ISAPNP, PNPBIOS, and ACPI describe the "possible resource settings" of
a device, i.e., the possibilities an OS bus driver has when it assigns
I/O port, MMIO, and other resources to the device.
PNP used to maintain this "possible resource setting" information in
one independent option structure and a list of dependent option
structures for each device. Each of these option structures had lists
of I/O, memory, IRQ, and DMA resources, for example:
dev
independent options
ind-io0 -> ind-io1 ...
ind-mem0 -> ind-mem1 ...
...
dependent option set 0
dep0-io0 -> dep0-io1 ...
dep0-mem0 -> dep0-mem1 ...
...
dependent option set 1
dep1-io0 -> dep1-io1 ...
dep1-mem0 -> dep1-mem1 ...
...
...
This data structure was designed for ISAPNP, where the OS configures
device resource settings by writing directly to configuration
registers. The OS can write the registers in arbitrary order much
like it writes PCI BARs.
However, for PNPBIOS and ACPI devices, the OS uses firmware interfaces
that perform device configuration, and it is important to pass the
desired settings to those interfaces in the correct order. The OS
learns the correct order by using firmware interfaces that return the
"current resource settings" and "possible resource settings," but the
option structures above doesn't store the ordering information.
This patch replaces the independent and dependent lists with a single
list of options. For example, a device might have possible resource
settings like this:
dev
options
ind-io0 -> dep0-io0 -> dep1->io0 -> ind-io1 ...
All the possible settings are in the same list, in the order they
come from the firmware "possible resource settings" list. Each entry
is tagged with an independent/dependent flag. Dependent entries also
have a "set number" and an optional priority value. All dependent
entries must be assigned from the same set. For example, the OS can
use all the entries from dependent set 0, or all the entries from
dependent set 1, but it cannot mix entries from set 0 with entries
from set 1.
Prior to this patch PNP didn't keep track of the order of this list,
and it assigned all independent options first, then all dependent
ones. Using the example above, that resulted in a "desired
configuration" list like this:
ind->io0 -> ind->io1 -> depN-io0 ...
instead of the list the firmware expects, which looks like this:
ind->io0 -> depN-io0 -> ind-io1 ...

The ISAPNP spec recommends that independent options precede
dependent ones, but this is not actually required. The current
ISAPNP code incorrectly puts such trailing independent options
at the end of the last dependent option list.
This patch fixes that bug by resetting the current option list
to the independent list when we see an "End Dependent Functions"
tag. PNPBIOS and PNPACPI handle this the same way.

When building resource options, ISAPNP and PNPBIOS set the priority
to something like "0x100 | PNP_RES_PRIORITY_ACCEPTABLE", but we
immediately mask off the 0x100 again in pnp_build_option(), so that
bit looks superfluous.

This patch moves all the option allocations (pnp_mem, pnp_port, etc)
into the pnp_register_{mem,port,irq,dma}_resource() functions. This
will make it easier to rework the option data structures.
The non-trivial part of this patch is the IRQ handling. The backends
have to allocate a local pnp_irq_mask_t bitmap, populate it, and pass
a pointer to pnp_register_irq_resource().

PNP used to have a fixed-size pnp_resource_table for tracking the
resources used by a device. This table often overflowed, so we've
had to increase the table size, which wastes memory because most
devices have very few resources.
This patch replaces the table with a linked list of resources where
the entries are allocated on demand.
This removes messages like these:
pnpacpi: exceeded the max number of IO resources
00:01: too many I/O port resources
References:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9535
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9740
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/30/110
This patch also changes the way PNP uses the IORESOURCE_UNSET,
IORESOURCE_AUTO, and IORESOURCE_DISABLED flags.
Prior to this patch, the pnp_resource_table entries used the flags
like this:
IORESOURCE_UNSET
This table entry is unused and available for use. When this flag
is set, we shouldn't look at anything else in the resource structure.
This flag is set when a resource table entry is initialized.
IORESOURCE_AUTO
This resource was assigned automatically by pnp_assign_{io,mem,etc}().
This flag is set when a resource table entry is initialized and
cleared whenever we discover a resource setting by reading an ISAPNP
config register, parsing a PNPBIOS resource data stream, parsing an
ACPI _CRS list, or interpreting a sysfs "set" command.
Resources marked IORESOURCE_AUTO are reinitialized and marked as
IORESOURCE_UNSET by pnp_clean_resource_table() in these cases:
- before we attempt to assign resources automatically,
- if we fail to assign resources automatically,
- after disabling a device
IORESOURCE_DISABLED
Set by pnp_assign_{io,mem,etc}() when automatic assignment fails.
Also set by PNPBIOS and PNPACPI for:
- invalid IRQs or GSI registration failures
- invalid DMA channels
- I/O ports above 0x10000
- mem ranges with negative length
After this patch, there is no pnp_resource_table, and the resource list
entries use the flags like this:
IORESOURCE_UNSET
This flag is no longer used in PNP. Instead of keeping
IORESOURCE_UNSET entries in the resource list, we remove
entries from the list and free them.
IORESOURCE_AUTO
No change in meaning: it still means the resource was assigned
automatically by pnp_assign_{port,mem,etc}(), but these functions
now set the bit explicitly.
We still "clean" a device's resource list in the same places,
but rather than reinitializing IORESOURCE_AUTO entries, we
just remove them from the list.
Note that IORESOURCE_AUTO entries are always at the end of the
list, so removing them doesn't reorder other list entries.
This is because non-IORESOURCE_AUTO entries are added by the
ISAPNP, PNPBIOS, or PNPACPI "get resources" methods and by the
sysfs "set" command. In each of these cases, we completely free
the resource list first.
IORESOURCE_DISABLED
In addition to the cases where we used to set this flag, ISAPNP now
adds an IORESOURCE_DISABLED resource when it reads a configuration
register with a "disabled" value.

We used pnp_resource.index to keep track of which ISAPNP configuration
register a resource should be written to. We needed this only to
handle the case where a register is disabled but a subsequent register
in the same set is enabled.
Rather than explicitly maintaining the pnp_resource.index, this patch
adds a resource every time we read an ISAPNP configuration register
and marks the resource as IORESOURCE_DISABLED when appropriate. This
makes the position in the pnp_resource_table always correspond to the
config register index.

Save the ISAPNP config register index in the struct pnp_resource.
We need this because it is important to write ISAPNP configuration
back to the same registers we read it from. For example, if we
read valid regions from memory descriptors 0, 1, and 3, we'd
better write them back to the same registers, without compressing
them to descriptors 0, 1, and 2.
This was previously guaranteed by using the index into the
pnp_resource_table array as the ISAPNP config register index.
However, I am removing those fixed-size arrays, so we need to
save the ISAPNP register index elsewhere.

PNP_MAX_MEM and PNP_MAX_PORT are mainly used to size tables of PNP
device resources. In 2.6.24, we increased their values to accomodate
ACPI devices that have many resources:
2.6.23 2.6.24
------ ------
PNP_MAX_MEM 4 12
PNP_MAX_PORT 8 40
However, ISAPNP also used these constants as the size of parts of the
logical device register set. This register set is fixed by hardware,
so increasing the constants meant that we were reading and writing
unintended parts of the register set.
This patch changes ISAPNP to use the correct register set sizes (the
same values we used prior to 2.6.24).

In drivers/pnp/isapnp/core.c::isapnp_read_tag() there is a test of 'type'
being == 0 a bit down in the function. That test doesn't make any sense.
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.
