Patch 3: Make default callbacks simpler. I want to move as much to a 1 file/1 value model as possible. I haven't come up with a clean way to enforce it except via social pressure. This patch is a step in that direction. It: - Reduces the output of 'power' to just the decimal state of the device - Adds a 'name' file which exports just the device name - Reduces the 'status' file to just export the bus ID. (This will change, since the bus ID is obvious based on what directory you're in, but it's another patch at another time)

Patch 1: Make device_driver_init() an initcall. It declares it as subsys_initcall and removes the explicit call from init/main.c::do_basic_setup().

Here is a patch to enhance xconfig to read the new Config.help files. Olaf Dietsche wrote this, and Steven Cole passed it on to me. Testing: Steven Cole tested it, and I tested it.

A trivial patch that fixes this irritation in my dmesg, 2.5.3: megaraid: v1.18 (Release Date: Thu Oct 11 15:02:53 EDT 2001 )<5>megaraid: found 0x8086:0x1960:idx 0:bus 2:slot 5:func 1 scsi0 : Found a MegaRAID controller at 0xe089c000, IRQ: 12 Please apply.

Hi Linus, I've got strange idea and tried to build diskless machine around 2.5.3... Besides problem with segfaulting crc32 (it is initialized after net/ipv4/ipconfig.c due to lib/lib.a being a library... I had to hardcode lib/crc32.o before --start-group in main Makefile, but it is another story) there is bad problem with NBD caused by BIO changes: (1) request flags were immediately put into on-wire request format. In the past, we had 0=READ, !0=WRITE. Now only REQ_RW bit determines direction. As nbd-server from nbd distribution package treats any non-zero value as write, it performs writes instead of read. Fortunately it will die due to other consistency checks on incoming request, but... (2) nbd servers handle only up to 10240 byte requests. So setting max_sectors to 20 is needed, as otherwise nbd server commits suicide. Maximum request size should be handshaked during nbd initialization, but currently just use hardwired 20 sectors, so it will behave like it did in the past.

I think I told you to revert this bit from 2.5.3, but here it is in patch form anyways. Whoever made this change didn't read the driver, and well... didn't even build test it either :-)
