I realized that I've had this patch in my tree for a while, and forgot
to send it to you and lkml.  The patch below fixes bug number 923:
	http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=923
(basically keeps us from calling pci_find_device from interrupt
context.)

It's been tested by a few people with this device, and they say it works
just fine for them.  Please forward it on up the food chain.

instead of homebrew MII bitbanging.

Driver does not need to enforce 256 byte alignment for data returned
from pci_alloc_consistent().
- {rx/tx}_dma_aligned and {rx/td}_dma_raw are both replaced by {rx/tx}_dma;
- {rx/tx}_desc_raw is replaced by direct use of {Rx/Tx}DescArray;
- SiS190_open()
  + fixup for a lack of kmalloc() failure handling;
  + (return status) there is no need for both retval/rc: merge them;
  + anonymous printk() fixup: the name of the guilty device is printed;
- define {RX/TX}_DESC_TOTAL_SIZE because I am too lazy to read twice the
  same lengthy arithmetic expression.

Also, export PCI bus id via ETHTOOL_GDRVINFO.

Drivers updated: fmvj18x_cs, ibmtr_cs, nmclan_cs, pcnet_cs,
xirc2ps_cs.

Until RX path is cleaned up to use PCI DMA API and
not virt_to_bus.

Also, minor changes:
* mark ->hard_start_xmit ETH_ZLEN test as unlikely()
* use cpu_to_le32() and le32_to_cpu() in TX path
* fix two leak in error path, in ->hard_start_xmit
* don't test netif_queue_stopped() in TX completion path,
  netif_wake_queue() already does that.

Looks like this driver wasn't tested on SMP :)

older gcc's do not support C99/C++ style of variable declarations.

sound/pcmcia/vx/vx_entry.c:

This patch removes the PCMCIA timer release functionality which is no
longer required. Without this the module does not compile.

Too much cut-and-paste, noticed by Dmitry Torokhov <dtor_core@ameritech.net>

On PPC32 we reorder the arguments so they fit into 6 registers.  Glibc will
need a two-line stub to change them from the standard order to the ordering
used by the system call: (fd, advice, offset, len).

In both 2.4 and in 2.6, error handling for bad cdrom media is
wrong.  And it is my fault I'm afraid, since I botched an earlier
fix for the problem by putting the fix in the wrong spot.

My kids have a "Jumpstart Toddlers" cd they have long since
completely killed, which makes a great test disc.  Without this
fix, the best time projection I can get for completing a dd type
sector copy is about 2 years...  Most of that is spent thrashing
about in kernel space trying to re-read sectors we already know
are not correctable....  After the fix, I was able to rip a copy
the CD (or rather muddle through it getting lots of EIO errors)
in about 15 minutes.

Attached is the fix for 2.6.x,

Yes, looks good: reset the iterator at allocation.
