This fixes several calculation errors and races in entropy accounting
that would allow /dev/random output to greatly exceed the measured
entropy collection. This doesn't include any of my more controversial
hardening, it just makes it behave as intended.

It also corrects the operation of the 'catastrophic reseeding' feature
so that it will actually prevent the state extension attack it's meant
to guard against.

And finally, it also fixes a couple missed wake-up and accidental
sleep bugs uncovered by the above fixes.

Debug instrumentation has been improved to help verify correctness.

This patch adds locking for SMP. Apparently Willy never managed to
revive his laptop with his version so I revived mine.

The batch pool is copied as a block to avoid long lock hold times
while mixing it into the primary pool. 

Two locks are added:

gobal batch_lock
   batch_entropy_store can be called from any context, and typically from
   interrupts -> spin_lock_irqsave

   batch_entropy_process is called called via schedule_delayed_work and
   runs in process context -> spin_lock_irq

entropy_store.lock
   the mixing process is too expensive to be called from an interrupt
   context and the basic worker function extract_entropy can sleep, so
   all this stuff can be under a normal spin_lock

When building a kernel right after 'make mrproper' resulted in a very short
run, and no sign that .config was missing.  This has been fixed by adding a
new rule for .config in the top-level Makefile, and a new target
'silentoldconfig' in scripts/kconfig/Makefile.

Cleaned up a bit in scripts/kconfig/Makefile

The free_netdev fixes in 2.6.0-test4 broke drivers/net/wan/cosa.c.
This fixes it.

The current cu3088 ccwgroup write code overwrite the last char of the
given arguments.  This fixes the problem.  It is been tested and applies
on latest bk.

Somewhere in the transition of task queue to the work queue, in
stallion.c, some of the schedule_task were left out from being converted
to schedule_work.  This fixes it.

	I wrote this driver a long time ago, and now, playing with my
brand new PARISC machine I found these problems, could you please apply
this patch?

	Ah, the "& more" refers to some alignment problems also solved
in this patch.

This patch removes the PCMCIA timer release functionality which is no
longer required (or supported).

    The thread for was unneeded on chips other than CH_8139_K/8129. So,
    this patch doesn't create the thread on chips other than
    CH_8139_K/8129.

Harmless in 2.4, but causes oopses on rmmod in 2.6.

slab poisoning can take care of this for us, anyway.

* removed ancient-kernel compat code from sk_mca.h.  I leave
  it to janitors to remove the now-useless SKMCA_xxx wrappers.
* removed ancient-kernel compat code from sk_mca.c.
* s/SKMCA_NETDEV/net_device/
* fixed static net_device initialization (this will go away
  when dynamic-alloc patches land)

Anybody with hardware, that can test this driver?

While it would be nice to keep using the generic version of RODATA, the
v850's linker-script structure is sufficiently different from that of
typical archs that it's not possible to use RODATA as it's currently
defined.  I earlier suggested splitting the generic definition of RODATA
into `RODATA_CONTENTS' and `RODATA' (a wrapper around RODATA_CONTENTS)
where most archs would use RODATA, and the v850 would use
RODATA_CONTENTS, however Kai didn't like that idea.

It _may_ be possible to rewrite the v850's linker scripts into something
more typical (using lots of individual output sections), but it doesn't
seem at all straightforward, so I don't have the time to do it right
now.

Anyway, this is the short-term work-around so that Linus's kernel works
on the v850.

o driver support headers update
o fix warnings

typo fixed.

In order to bring the 2.4 and 2.6 versions in sync, here is the
missing bit for the meye driver :)

This updates the sonypi driver to the latest version:
        * document the fact that FX501/FX702 laptops are not supported

        * add battery insert/remove events (thanks to Daniel K.)

        * improve the event detection using a different port offset
          on 'type2' models (thanks to Daniel K.)
