7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

84c3ea01d1 [netdrvr] Convert madgemc to new MCA API.
Now that all tms380 devices have a valid
struct device with dma_mask, remove dmalimit from tmsdev_init().

Kconfig: depend tms380tr and madgemc on MCA.
abyss.c, proteon.c, skisa.c, tmspci.c, tms380tr.h:
  remove dmalimit parameter from tmsdev_init().
tms380tr.c: use device->dma_mask instead of dmalimit.
madgemc.c: move to new MCA API using struct device.

504ff16cec [PATCH] tms380tr: move to DMA API
This patch makes tms380tr use the new DMA API.  Now that on Alpha, this API
also supports bus master DMA for ISA (platform) devices, i changed the
driver to use this new API.

This also works around a bug in the firmware loader: The example provided
in Documentation/firmware_class no longer works, as the firmware loader now
calls get_kobj_path_length() and the kernel promptly oopses, as the
home-grown device doesn't have a parent.  Of course, this doesn't happen
with a "real" device which has its bus (or pseudo bus in the case of
platform) as parent.

Converted tms380tr to use new DMA API:
  - proteon.c, skisa.c: use platform pseudo bus to create a struct device
  - Space.c: delete init hooks
  - abyss.c, tmspci.c: pass struct device to tms380tr.c
  - tms380tr.c, tms380tr.h: new DMA API, use real device fo firmware loader

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!
