The was a race triggered by heavy MT usage that could have caused
processes in D state. Bad Davide, bad ...

Also, the semaphore is now per-epoll-fd and not global. Plus some comment
adjustment.

Now that we use idedefault_driver.drives instead of ata_unused, the order
of drives on the driver->drives becomes significant; note that when we added
to ata_unused, we had done that to the end of list.

So we should do the same with the "drives" list.

With this the area that is shared among struct sock and struct tcp_tw_bucket
is exact, i.e. there is no fields that are in struct sock and only reused
for other reasons in tcp_tw_bucket, while keeping both struct free of holes.

Avoid touching the next page in the NMI handler stack validity check.

That way, we can start unmapping pages that aren't in use, without
triggering this case.

More zlib K&R to ANSI C function header conversions.

This updates the matroxfb driver to the new framebuffer API.

I'm sorry that it is quite large, but due to completely changed
underlying API there is no reasonable way how to split it into smaller
pieces.

 - Removed support for text mode. No way for it with current API.
 - Removed support for hardware cursor. Generic cursor code has enough
   troubles as is, in software mode.
 - No reasonable fbset support... It is especially annoying on multihead
   system, as 'stty cols XXX rows YYY' does not change pixclock...
 - Removed fastfont support. No way for it with current API.

(Mis)features inherited from generic fbdev API:
 - Cursor on other framebuffers than primary one does not blink.
 - Contents of visible, but not foreground, display is not updated.

This patch reinstates the ability of tty devices to use dynamically
allocated major numbers yet specify the minor numbers statically.

The synclink drivers do this.

This patch adds some new vendor/product ids for the USB scanner
driver.

The recent writev() fix broke the invariant that ->commit_write _must_ be
called after a successful ->prepare_write().  It leaves ext3 with a
transaction stuck open and the filesystem locks up.
