1) remove call to check_region
	2) test result of request_region
	3) call release_region in case of driver intialisation error later on
 

remove unneeded asm/io.h include

e100_phy_reset is called from non-init functions,
so remove __devexit marker from that function.

Spotted by Keith Owens.

Also, mention new maintainer.

* ifr2.ifr_flags was not initialized in the hwaddr_notset case,
* SIOCGIFFLAGS now called before hwaddr_notset test

* patch added stuff to include/linux.  move these three new headers
  to drivers/net/wan.
* change the code to support these changes
* slightly better Config.in entry. needs more work, though.

This adds proper support for readv/writev in the TUN/TAP driver.

The following patch against 2.5.11 updates the orinoco driver.  As well
as miscellaneous updates to the driver core it adds a new module
supporting Prism 2.5 based PCI wireless cards, and adds a MAINTAINERS
entry for the driver.

Linus,
  During a 'make bzImage', I received a warning on ppp_generic.c that ret
wasn't initialized (also for 2.5.10). I have attached a patch that sets
ret = count, thus removing the warning. Please review for inclusion.

Regards,
Frank

Attached patch is a resync of previous patches sent by Ingo and I.
Specifically:

	- create new MAX_USER_RT_PRIO value
	- separate uses of MAX_RT_PRIO vs MAX_USER_RT_PRIO
	- replace use of magic numbers by above
	- additional comments

This patch to synclink.h against 2.5.11 is required
for the synclink_cs.c driver to compile.

Last remaining instances removed.

I overlooked these single line changes.  Here are next corrections
against ChangeSet 1.547:

This patch takes the BKL out of vfs_readdir() and moves it into the
individual filesystems, all 35 of them.  I have the feeling that this
wasn't done before because there are a lot of these to change and it was
a pain to find them all.  I definitely got all of those that were
defined in the in the structure declaration like this "readdir:
fs_readdir;" vxfs_readdir was assigned strangely, but I found it anyway.
I also left devfs out of this one.  Richard seems confident that devfs
has no need for the BKL.

This fixes the "performance" degradation partially, becouse we don't
miss that many jiffies in choose_urgent_device() anymore.  However
choose_urgent_device has to be fixed for the off by one error to don't
loop for a whole 1/100 second before submitting the next request.

- Include small declaration bits for Jens. (WIN_NOP fix in esp.)

- Fix ide-pmac to conform to the recent API changes.

- Prepare and improve the handling of the request queue. It sucks now as many
   request as possible. This is improving the performance.

- Rewrite choose_drive() to iterate explicitely over the channels and devices
    on them. It is not performance critical to iterate over this typically quite
    small array of disks and allows us to let them act on the natural entity,
    namely the channel as well as to remove the drive->next field from struct
    ata_device.  Make the device eviction code in ide_do_request() more
    intelliglible.  Add some comments explaining the reasoning behind the code
    there.

- Now finally since the code for choosing the drive which will be serviced next
    is intelliglibly it became obvious that the attempt to choose the next drive
    based on the duration of the last request was entierly bogous. (Because for
    example wakeups can take a long time, but this doesn't indicate that the
    drive is slow.) Remove this criterium and the corresponding accounting
    therefore. Threat all drives fairly right now.

Surprise surprise the overall system throughput increased :-).

- Remove the specific CONFIG_IDEDMA_PCI_WIP in favor of using the generic
   CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL tag. (Pointed out by Vojtech Pavlik).

- Change the signature of the IRQ handler to take the request directly as a
   parameter. This doesn't blow the code up but makes it much more obvious and
   finally it's reducing the number of side effects of the hwgroup->rq field.

- A second sharp look after the above change allowed us to remove the wrq field
   from the hwgroup struct. It's just not used at all.

- Change the signature of the end_request member of struct ata_operations to
   take the request as a second argument. Similar for __ide_end_request()
   and ide_end_request().

- Remove BUG_ON() items just before ide_set_handler(). The check in
   ide_set_handler is clever enough now.

- Remove the rq subfield from ide-scsi packet structure. We have now the
   request context always in place. Same for floppy.

- Let the timer expiry function take the request as a direct argument.

Yes I know those changes are extensive. But they are a necessary step
in between for the following purposes:

- Consolidate the whole ATA/ATAPI stuff on passing a single unified request
   handling object. Because after eliminating those side effects it's far easier
   to see what's passed where.

- Minimizing the amount of side effects in the overall code. That's a good
   thing anyway and it *doesn't* cost us neither performance nor space, since
   the stack depths are small anyway here.

- Minimizing the usage of hwgroup - which should go away if possible.

Renames sync_buffers() to sync_blockdev() and removes its (never used)
second argument.

Removes fsync_no_super() in favour of direct calls to sync_blockdev().
