Fixes smbfs oopsing on failed nls translations and maps unknown chars to
:#### strings. Also PATHLEN vs NAMELEN mixups.

This patch enables PCI buses on nodes above node 0 for
the NUMA-Q architecture. It also enables node-directed
port/IO, and cleans up a couple of tiny things that only
affect CONFIG_MULTIQUAD.

This is one of the very early steps on cleaning up the SCSI cdrom
driver.  It gets rid of directly accessing the scsi_CDs array in favour
of using the handle we get from the generic cdrom layer.  Also uses
local vars instead of many grouped scsi_CDs accesses in other places.

The gain is to get rid of the global, static array of CDROMS
in the end.

kill all subsidiary threads in a thread group when the main thread
exits.

Features:

 - It sends the subsidiary threads SIGKILL with SI_DETHREAD.

 - Subsidiary threads doing an execve() just leave the thread group (rather
   than forcing the master thread to do an execve() which would be more POSIX
   like).

These are the small subset which were obviously correct.

Declare pnpbios_init as returning int, as __initcalls are supposed to.

The compiler warns about about crd_load being defined but never used with
my config. The appended patch avoids compiling in the unused code in this
case.

Several people (including Alan Cox) on lkml claimed that the BIOS
returns CPU addresses, so using phys_to_virt is actually correct -
and it makes my kernel compile again.

As vesafb only compiles on i386, using a more portable API isn't useful,
anyway.

irtty.c includes irqueue.h which includes linux/cache.h (via
asm/processor.h <- asm/thread_info.h <- linux/thread_info.h <-
linux/spinlock.h)

both irqueue.h and cache.h defines a ALIGN (for different
purposes).

This patch renames ALIGN in irqueue.h to IRDA_ALIGN.

Hello,

	this recent ALSA patch includes:

- added initial version of Config.help files
- moved /proc/asound/sndstat to /proc/asound/oss/sndstat
- moved /proc/asound/oss-devices to /proc/asound/oss/devices
- snd-rtctimer updates (blocking of RTC driver change)
- added ioctl conversion code for 32-bit applications running on 64-bit kernels
- fixed dependencies in makefiles
- wavefront driver cleanups (removed LOOPS_PER_SEC)
- created Documentation/sound/alsa directory

New file and directory include/linux/hdlc/ioctl.h, containing
only WAN ioctl-related definitions.
Update include/linux/if.h to reference these structures, providing
us with complete type safety, including through ioctls.

Clean up WAN device protocol structure accesses to be type-safe,
and not have to store the data length of structures.

Clean up WAN driver ioctl handling to be more independent
of line settings structure changes.

Add new HDLC interface, split up huge hdlc.c driver into
multiple files based on hardware type.  Convert WAN drivers
to new interface.

       added module parameter descriptions,

       clean up and using new mii module

for the following net drivers:

Several ham radio, several IrDA, lp4863, pcnet32, saa9730,
wireless orinoco.

Idea is that if there is a valid name in MODULE_DESCRIPTION("...")
then the name of the hardware/driver should not be also repeated
in each MODULE_PARM_DESC("...").  MODULE_DESCRIPTION has been
added to essentially all the 8390 drivers.

All of the drivers changed are 8390 based, with the exception of
eepro100 and 3c509.
