  • The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
    is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
    only small devices.

    This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
    references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
    option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
    can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
    considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

    Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
    expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
    are making should enable it.

  • Add support for communicating with a Sonics Silicon Backplane through a
    SDIO interface, as found in the Nintendo Wii WLAN daughter card.

    The Nintendo Wii WLAN card includes a custom Broadcom 4318 chip with
    a SDIO host interface.

  • This is a rewrite of the DMA API for SSB devices.
    This is needed, because the old (non-existing) "API" made too many bad
    assumptions on the API of the host-bus (PCI).
    This introduces an almost complete SSB-DMA-API that maps to the lowlevel
    bus-API based on the bustype.

  • This adds support for block based I/O to SSB.
    This is needed in order to efficiently support PIO data
    transfers to the card.
    The block-I/O support is only compiled, if it's selected by the
    weird driver that needs it. So there's no overhead for sane devices.

  • This adds the Gigabit Ethernet driver for the SSB
    Gigabit Ethernet core. This driver actually is a frontend to
    the Tigon3 driver. So the real work is done by tg3.
    This device is used in the Linksys WRT350N.

  • fix build failure if PCMCIA=m but SSB=y:

    drivers/built-in.o: In function `ssb_pcmcia_switch_coreidx':
    : undefined reference to `pcmcia_access_configuration_register'

    (fix symmetric bug for PCI too.)

  • SSB is an SoC bus used in a number of embedded devices. The most
    well-known of these devices is probably the Linksys WRT54G, but there
    are others as well. The bus is also used internally on the BCM43xx
    and BCM44xx devices from Broadcom.

    This patch also includes support for SSB ID tables in modules, so
    that SSB drivers can be loaded automatically.
