videodev: BKL pushdown
Put explicit lock_kernel() calls into videodev_open(). That function
itself seems OK, but one never knows about all the open() functions
provided by underlying video drivers.

Add multi_defconfig, to build a kernel for all supported m68k platforms,
excluding Sun 3 (Sun 3 kernels are incompatible with all other m68k platforms)
The *_ISA type defines are quite generic and cause namespace conflicts
(e.g. with `AMIGAHW_DECLARE(GG2_ISA)' in <asm/amigahw.h>) for some kernel
configurations. Use ISA_TYPE_* to avoid such conflicts.
Use `__builtin_trap()' instead of `asm volatile("illegal")' in the m68k BUG()
macros (as suggested by Andrew Pinski), to kill warnings in code that assumes
BUG() does not return.
m68k: FB_HP300 depends on DIO and doesnt need FB_CFB_FILLRECT
Correct FB_HP300 dependencies:
- FB_HP300 doesn't depend only on HP300, but also on DIO (which depends on
HP300)
- FB_HP300 does not need FB_CFB_FILLRECT

i2c/max6875: Really prevent 24RF08 corruption
i2c-core takes care of the possible corruption of 24RF08 chips for
quite some times, so device devices no longer need to do it. And they
really should not, as applying the prevention twice voids it.
I thought that I had fixed all drivers long ago but apparently I had
missed that one.

i2c: Convert remaining new-style drivers to use module aliasing
Update all the remaining new-style i2c drivers to use standard module
aliasing instead of the old driver_name/type driver matching scheme.
Note that the tuner driver is a bit quirky at the moment, as it
overwrites i2c_client.name with arbitrary strings. We write "tuner"
back on remove, to make sure that driver cycling will work properly,
but there may still be troublesome corner cases.

i2c-nforce2: Disable the second SMBus channel on the DFI Lanparty NF4 Expert
There is a strange chip at 0x2e on the second SMBus channel of the
DFI Lanparty NF4 Expert motherboard. Accessing the chip reboots the
system. As there's nothing interesting on this SMBus channel, the
easiest and safest thing to do is to disable it on that board.

done originally:

Two changes are necessary to enable proper operation of the DM9000 device with
the Colibri PXA 270 board: firstly, the IRQ type needs to be configured for
rising edge interrupts, and secondly this configuration needs to be
communicated through to the DM9000.

[ARM] 5037/1: Orion: fix DNS323/Kurobox Pro PCI initialisation
Whereas most Orion 5x machine support code would initialise the PCI
subsystem with nr_controllers in their struct hw_pci set to 2, the
DNS323 and Kurobox Pro machine support code had nr_controllers set
to 1.
This was presumably done because on those two machines, the PCI(-X)
controller (nr == 1) isn't used, requiring initialisation of only
the PCIe controller (nr == 0.) However, not initialising the PCI(-X)
controller on boards that don't use it leads to a situation where
both the PCIe and the PCI(-X) controller think that their root bus is
zero, and it messes up IRQ assignment.
This patch changes the DNS323 and Kurobox Pro support code to always
use nr_controllers == 2.

invalidate part if the cache is in writethrough mode, but the current
proc-arm{925,926,940,946} (incorrectly) do a cache clean in the
latter case. This patch fixes that.

x86: disable mwait for AMD family 10H/11H CPUs
x86: fix crash on cpu hotplug on pat-incapable machines
x86: remove mwait capability C-state check
It depends on the CPU. For AMD CPUs that support MWAIT this is wrong.
Family 0x10 and 0x11 CPUs will enter C1 on HLT. Powersavings then
depend on a clock divisor and current Pstate of the core.
If all cores of a processor are in halt state (C1) the processor can
enter the C1E (C1 enhanced) state. If mwait is used this will never
happen.
Thus HLT saves more power than MWAIT here.
It might be best to switch off the mwait flag for these AMD CPU
families like it was introduced with commit f039b754714a422959027cb18bb33760eb8153f0 (x86: Don't use MWAIT on AMD
Family 10)
Re-add the AMD families 10H/11H check and disable the mwait usage for
those.
