  • ...and __constant_ntohs, __constant_ntohl, __constant_cpu_to_be32 too
    where possible. Htons and friends are resolved to constants in these
    places anyway. Also fix an endianess glitch in a log message, spotted
    by Alexey Dobriyan.

  • Replace occurrences of the magic value ~(u64)0 for invalid
    CSR address spaces by a named constant for better readability.

  • Add support for the following types of hardware:
    + nodes that have a link speed < PHY speed
    + 1394b PHYs that are less than S800 capable
    + 1394b/1394a adapter cable between two 1394b PHYs
    Also, S1600 and S3200 are now supported if IEEE1394_SPEED_MAX is raised.

    A probing function is added to nodemgr's config ROM fetching routine
    which adjusts the allowable speed if an access problem was encountered.
    Pros and Cons of the approach:
    + minimum code footprint to support this less widely used hardware
    + nearly no overhead for unaffected hardware
    - ineffective before nodemgr began to read the ROM of affected nodes
    - ineffective if ieee1394 is loaded with disable_nodemgr=1
    The speed map CSRs which are published to the bus are not touched by the
    patch.

  • Lots of this patch is trivial code cleanups (static vars were being
    intialized to 0, etc).

    There's also some fixes for ISO transmits (max buffer handling).
    Aswell, we have a few fixes to disable IRM capabilites correctly. We've
    also disabled, by default some generally unused EXPORT symbols for the
    sake of cleanliness in the kernel. However, instead of removing them
    completely, we felt it necessary to have a config option that allowed
    them to be enabled for the many projects outside of the main kernel tree
    that use our API for driver development.

    The primary reason for this patch is to revert a MODE6->MODE10 RBC
    conversion patch from the SCSI maintainers. The new conversions handled
    directly in the scsi layer do not seem to work for SBP2. This patch
    reverts to our old working code so that users can enjoy using Firewire
    disks and dvd drives again.

    We are working with the SCSI maintainers to resolve this issue outside
    of the main kernel tree. We'll merge the patch once the SCSI layer's
    handling of the MODE10 conversion is working for us.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
