will disable the ACPI interpreter init, but not stop the OS from using
ACPI tables for finding CPUs and IOAPICs. Another problem is that if we
use the tables, but then the interpreter fails to init, we are in deep
trouble, because it is too late to revert to using MPS, but we cannot get
_PRT info without the interpreter.

This changeset doesn't fix the latter problem, but it does at least make
"acpi=off" actually do what it says, and not use the ACPI interpreter *or*
the tables.

This is the second part of "broken cfb* support in the 2.5.31-bk".  I
needed fbcon-cfb2 on one of my systems, and so I went through all
fbcon-* drivers and fixed them.

line_length, type, type_aux and visual were moved from display to
fb_info in last James Simmon's fbdev update.  Unfortunately lowlevel
support modules were not updated.

I want to find a way to get all those PageReserved tests out of
there, because they are very expensive.  But now is not the
time.

Make sure that the VC tty pointer is cleared when the tty is free'd.

bit of cleaning later.

Note: I've also fixed several obvious "forgot to update" problems (changed
prototype of blk_init_queue(), etc.) but I hadn't touched the DMA-mapping
stuff, so it still doesn't work with 2.5; moreover, it misses a lot of fixes
done in 2.4, but that's fun for Alan - he's the maintainer

Well I didn't test that very well.  __page_cache_release() is doing a
__free_page() on a zero-ref page, so __free_pages() sends the refcount
negative and doesn't free it.  With patch #8, page_cache_release()
almost never frees pages, but it must have been leaking a little bit.
Lucky it showed up.

This fixes it, and also adds a missing PageReserved test in put_page().
Which makes put_page() identical to page_cache_release(), but there are
header file woes.  I'll fix that up later.

This trivial patch reorders the unlocking in rq_unlock()... I was
tired of getting stack dumps in my messages file.

Make sure to properly reset the state after disconnect

Newer gcc's don't like string concat with __FUNCTION__, so
use %s and __FUNCTION__ as argument.

Thanks to Rusty for posting the script...
