firedtv: fix remote control input

    and update the scancode-to-keycode mapping to a current model.  Per
    default, various media key keycodes are emitted which closely match what
    is printed on the remote.  Userland can modify the mapping by means of
    evdev ioctls.  (Not tested.)

    The old scancode-to-keycode mapping is left in the driver but cannot be
    modified by ioctls.  This preserves status quo for old remotes.

firedtv: replace tasklet by workqueue job

    Non-atomic context is a lot nicer to work with.

firedtv: move some code back to ieee1394 core

    Partially reverts "ieee1394: remove unused code" of Linux 2.6.25.

firedtv: replace semaphore by mutex

    firesat->avc_sem and ->demux_sem have been used exactly like a mutex.
    The only exception is the schedule_remotecontrol tasklet which did a
    down_trylock in atomic context.  This is not possible with
    mutex_trylock; however the whole remote control related code is
    non-functional anyway at the moment.  This should be fixed eventually,
    probably by turning the tasklet into a worqueue job.

    Convert everything else from semaphore to mutex.

    Also rewrite a few of the affected functions to unlock the mutex at a
    single exit point, instead of in several branches.

firedtv: some header cleanups

    Unify #ifndef/#define/#endif guards against multiple inclusion.
    Drop extern keyword from function declarations.
    Remove #include's into header files where struct declarations suffice.

    Remove unused ohci1394 interface and related unused ieee1394 interfaces.

    Add a few missing #include's and remove a few apparently obsolete ones.
    Sort them alphabetically.

firedtv: nicer registration message and some initialization fixes

    Print the correct name in dvb_register_adapter().

    While we are at it, replace two switch cascades by one for loop, remove
    a superfluous member of struct firesat and of two unused arguments of
    AVCIdentifySubunit(), and fix bogus kfree's in firesat_dvbdev_init().

firesat: rename to firedtv

    Suggested by Andreas Monitzer.  Besides DVB-S/-S2 receivers, the driver
    also supports DVB-C and DVB-T receivers, hence the previous project name
    is too narrow now.

    Not yet done:  Rename source directory, files, types, variables...

cc9429bcb6 ieee1394: rawiso: requeue packet for transmission after skipped cycle
As it seems, some host controllers have issues that can cause them to
skip cycles now and then when using large packets. I suspect that this
is due to DMA not succeeding in time. If the transmit fifo can't contain
more than one packet (big packets), the DMA should provide a new packet
each cycle (125us). I am under the impression that my current PCI
express test system can't guarantee this.

In any case, the patch tries to provide a workaround as follows:
The DMA program descriptors are modified such that when an error occurs,
the DMA engine retries the descriptor the next cycle instead of
stalling. This way no data is lost. The side effect of this is that
packets are sent with one cycle delay. This however might not be that
much of a problem for certain protocols (e.g. AM824). If they use
padding packets for e.g. rate matching they can drop one of those to
resync the streams.

The amount of skips between two userspace wakeups is counted. This
number is then propagated to userspace through the upper 16 bits of the
'dropped' parameter. This allows unmodified userspace applications due
to the following:
1) libraw simply passes this dropped parameter to the user application
2) the meaning of the dropped parameter is: if it's nonzero, something
bad has happened. The actual value of the parameter at this moment does
not have a specific meaning.

A libraw client can then retrieve the number of skipped cycles and
account for them if needed.

1934b8b656 [PATCH] Sync up ieee-1394
Lots of this patch is trivial code cleanups (static vars were being
intialized to 0, etc).

There's also some fixes for ISO transmits (max buffer handling).
Aswell, we have a few fixes to disable IRM capabilites correctly.  We've
also disabled, by default some generally unused EXPORT symbols for the
sake of cleanliness in the kernel.  However, instead of removing them
completely, we felt it necessary to have a config option that allowed
them to be enabled for the many projects outside of the main kernel tree
that use our API for driver development.

The primary reason for this patch is to revert a MODE6->MODE10 RBC
conversion patch from the SCSI maintainers.  The new conversions handled
directly in the scsi layer do not seem to work for SBP2.  This patch
reverts to our old working code so that users can enjoy using Firewire
disks and dvd drives again.

We are working with the SCSI maintainers to resolve this issue outside
of the main kernel tree.  We'll merge the patch once the SCSI layer's
handling of the MODE10 conversion is working for us.

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
