firewire: fw-ohci: enforce read order for selfID generation
It seems unlikely, but access to self_id_cpu[0] could at least in theory
be deferred until after the loop over self_id_cpu[1..n] or even after
the subsequent reg_read. Enforce the desired order by a read barrier.
Also prevent the reg_read from being reordered relative to the for loop.
This isn't necessary if the loop's conditional printk counts as an
implicit barrier, but better make it explicit.
(self_id_cpu[] is a coherent DMA buffer.)

firewire: fw-sbp2: use an own workqueue (fix system responsiveness)
Firewire-sbp2 did very uncooperative things in the kernel's shared
workqueue: Sleeping until reception of management status from the
target for up to 2 seconds, and performing SCSI inquiry and all of the
setup of SCSI command set drivers via scsi_add_device. If there were
transient or permanent error conditions, this caused long blockage of
the kernel's events process, noticeable e.g. by blocked keyboard input.
We now allocate a workqueue process exclusive to fw-sbp2. As a side
effect, this also increases parallelism of fw-sbp2's login and reconnect
work versus fw-core's device discovery and device update work which is
performed in the shared workqueue.

tgafb: fix an out-of-range shift in mono imageblit
The pixel mask calculation in tgafb_mono_imageblit() uses a variable
left-shift on a 32-bit data type by up to 32. Shifting by the width of a data
type or more produces an unpredictable result according to the C standard.
Rather than widening the data type this fix makes sure the count is between 0
and 31. The reason is not to penalise 32-bit platforms with operation on a
"long long" type for a marginal case that is meant not to happen (blitting an
image of a zero width).
The reason it has escaped for so long is the Alpha, being purely 64-bit, :-)
does not mask the shift out to 32 bits. This is a valid implementation --
producing the correct result certainly falls within "unpredictable behaviour".
It does trigger on MIPS though and it is the recent merge of the TC support
which only enabled the driver for use on anything other than the Alpha. For
MIPS when the width is 32 the mask ends up being 0 rather than 0xffffffff as
it should be and the frame buffer is not updated.

imxfb: fast read flag and nonstandard field configurable
The i.MX frame-buffer read operation should be faster for all configurations
then drawing each individual character again in response to scroll events.
The nonstandard fields allows to configure frame-buffer special options flags
for different display configurations by board specific initialization code.
One of such specific options is reversed order of pixels in each individual
byte. i.MX frame-buffer seems to be designed for big-endian use first. The
byte order is correctly configured for little-endian ordering, but if 1, 2 or
4 bits per pixel are used, pixels ordering is incompatible to Linux generic
frame-buffer drawing functions.
The patch "Allow generic BitBLT functions to work with swapped pixel order in
bytes" introduces required functionality into FBDEV core. The pixels ordering
selection has to be enabled at compile time CONFIG_FB_CFB_REV_PIXELS_IN_BYTE
and for each display configuration which requires it by flag
FB_NONSTD_REV_PIX_IN_B in "nonstd" field of info structure.

video gfx: merge kconfig menus
Move AGP and DRM menus into the video graphics support menu.
They use 'menuconfig' so that they can all be disabled with
one selection.
Make the console menu use 'menuconfig' so that it can all be
disabled with one selection.
Make the frame buffer menu use 'menuconfig' so that it can all be
disabled with one selection.

fbcon: logo: disable logo at boot
Add logo.nologo kernel boot option to disable the logo in order to provide
more screen space for kernel messages; especially useful when debugging and
screen space is more critical.

vt/vgacon: Check if screen resize request comes from userspace
Various console drivers are able to resize the screen via the con_resize()
hook. This hook is also visible in userspace via the TIOCWINSZ, VT_RESIZE and
VT_RESIZEX ioctl's. One particular utility, SVGATextMode, expects that
con_resize() of the VGA console will always return success even if the
resulting screen is not compatible with the hardware. However, this
particular behavior of the VGA console, as reported in Kernel Bugzilla Bug
7513, can cause undefined behavior if the user starts with a console size
larger than 80x25.
To work around this problem, add an extra parameter to con_resize(). This
parameter is ignored by drivers except for vgacon. If this parameter is
non-zero, then the resize request came from a VT_RESIZE or VT_RESIZEX ioctl
and vgacon will always return success. If this parameter is zero, vgacon will
return -EINVAL if the requested size is not compatible with the hardware. The
latter is the more correct behavior.
With this change, SVGATextMode should still work correctly while in-kernel and
stty resize calls can expect correct behavior from vgacon.

video gfx: fix menu ordering
Move video graphics driver configs to fix menus:
Fix FB_PMAGB_B to depend on FB so that the FB menus remain
listed in order and indented correctly.
Fix FB_IBM_GXT4500 to depend on FB so that the FB menus remain
listed in order and indented correctly.
The OMAP FB drivers still muck up the FB menu a bit, so I put
OMAP drivers at the end of the FB menu.

Radeonfb Xpress 200M RC410 support
Make radeonfb work ith the 200m Xpress RC410. In my tests it was terribly
unstable and would freeze until I set a refresh rate in the kernel argument
to 75.
e.g video=radeonfb:1280x800@75
Now it is rock solid.

fbdev: Update Documentation/fb/00-INDEX
An update to Documentation/fb/00-INDEX is long overdue. This patch adds
entries for new files in the directory and removes entries for files that no
longer exist. The files are now also sorted alphabetically.
ps3fb: Add a `mode' parameter to ps3fb_get_res_table(), as in some cases it
should check the full-screen flag of the _new_ video mode instead of the
current video mode.
This bug caused spurious mode change failures when switching between
fullscreen and non-fullscreen modes using fbset, while ps3-video-mode worked
fine.
