This patch paves the way for a new driver which needs the
functionality.  Now parport_daisy_select actually _uses_ its mode
parameter.

	* drivers/parport/daisy.c: Make parport_daisy_select aware of
	its 'mode' parameter.
	* drivers/parport/ChangeLog: Updated.

This patch fixes a potential deadlock in ppdev.

	* drivers/char/ppdev.c: Watch out for errors from
	parport_claim_or_block.
	* drivers/parport/share.c: Watch out for signals.
	* drivers/parport/ChangeLog: Updated.

I finally found the reason that printer console sometimes acted up
(duh):

	* drivers/char/lp.c: Fix printer console.

This patch prevents ppdev from oopsing when the PPGETMODES ioctl is
used before a PPCLAIM.

	* drivers/char/ppdev.c: Fix an oops in PPGETMODES handling.

This patch (from 2.4.x) cleans up the use of the ECR in parport_pc.

	* drivers/parport/parport_pc.c: Integrate fixes and cleanups
	from Damian Gruszka (VScom).
	* drivers/parport/ChangeLog: Updated.

Gets sparc64 in sync with 2.5.3 final changes.

Missing smp_lock.h inclusion.

linux/malloc.h --> linux/slab.h

I made a typo the other weeks while renaming the interfaces for you,
oops.  Please apply, thanks.

MINOR --> minor
MKDEV --> mk_kdev

The usual "u64 is long long only on some platforms" problem.

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 :-)
