m68knommu: remove legacy power managament from 68328 serial driver
Remove the legacy power management code from the 68328 serial driver.
It is not used, and there is no current kernel support for power
management on the 68328.

Cache xtime every call to update_wall_time
This avoids xtime lag seen with dynticks, because while 'xtime' itself
is still not updated often, we keep a 'xtime_cache' variable around that
contains the approximate real-time that _is_ updated each time we do a
'update_wall_time()', and is thus never off by more than one tick.
IOW, this restores the original semantics for 'xtime' users, as long as
you use the proper abstraction functions (ie 'current_kernel_time()' or
'get_seconds()' depending on whether you want a timespec or just the
seconds field).
[ Updated Patch. As penance for my sins I've also yanked another #ifdef
that was added to avoid the xtime lag w/ hrtimers. ]

Cleanup non-arch xtime uses, use get_seconds() or current_kernel_time().
This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside
of the actual time-related functions. Instead, use the helper functions
that we already have available to us.
This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to
fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ
(because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate
offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly
to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a
third of a second or so.

ata_piix: fix suspend/resume for some TOSHIBA laptops
ACPI implementations in several TOSHIBA laptops are weird and burn cpu

for the ATA controller is disabled when the ACPI suspend is called.
This patch uses DMI to match those machines and bypass device disable

enabled state on resume without affecting PCI enable count, matching
resume callback uses __pci_reenable_device().

This is fixed by adding arch/i386/lib/string.h to the list of host

A complication is that the libc exports file assumed that the generic strlen

exported. This is untrue for strlen, which is exported in either case, so
this logic is not needed.

The fallocate syscall returns ENOSYS in case the filesystem does not support
the operation and expects the userlevel code to fill in. This is good in
concept.
The problem is that the libc code for old kernels should be able to
distinguish the case where the syscall is not at all available vs not
functioning for a specific mount point. As is this is not possible and we
always have to invoke the syscall even if the kernel doesn't support it.
