When Tun initialization fails it shouldn't obscure the error return,
There are several reasons it could fail, and when diagnosing user problems
the error code might provide more info.

This fixes both the devfs name and the /sys name issues.
It ends up as /dev/net/tun and /sys/class/misc/tun looks correct.

Kevin Mack <kevmack@accesscomm.ca>
Here's a quick and dirty patch that's given me basic sound from
my Gateway M675 notebook (Sigmatel 9758 AC97 codec).

Intel8x0 driver
Added slot definitions for s/pdif pcm - ICH4

The missing __init was found by reference_init26.pl.

They are identical to non _HOB versions (except IDE_CONTROL_OFFSET_HOB).

Set ide_task_t fields (command_type, handler and prehandler) directly.
Remove unused ide_task_t->posthandler and all ide_cmd_type_parser() logic.

ide_cmd_type_parser() was meant to be used for ioctls but
ended up checking validity of kernel generated requests (doh!).

Rationale for removal:
- it can't be used for existing ioctls (changes the way they work)
- kernel shouldn't check validity of (root only) user-space requests
  (it can and should be done in user-space)
- it wastes CPU cycles on going through parsers
- it makes code harder to understand/follow
  (now info about request is localized)

Many thanks to Promise for their support.
Expect more updates/fixes for Promise PATA support soon.

- fix PIO (auto-)tuning - use pdcnew_new_tune_chipset()
  and always tune PIO mode even if (U)DMA is used
- cleanup cable verification code a bit
- remove leftovers from driver split-up
- remove duplicate DISPLAY_PDC202XX_TIMINGS define

The original submittor of the quirk code noted that the errata
of a lockup creating when the condition "sector % 15 == 1" is
true only on chip revisions <= 1.  This is limitation on chip
revision is apparently not correct, therefore we apply to all
affected drives in the quirk list.

This is a sledgehammer fix, limiting max-sectors to 15.  A much better
fix would split the hardware request into two taskfiles, issuing
an additional command, thereby avoiding "sectors % 15 == 1"

Given the errata is limited to "sil 311x + <these drives>", it is hoped
that some janitor cares enough to do a real fix.
