  • Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision
    ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member.

    This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword
    for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the
    read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all.

    In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what
    appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code
    and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance.

    Compile tested with make all{yes,mod}config on x86_64 and i386.

  • This patch contains the possible cleanups including the following:
    - every file should #include the headers containing the prototypes for
    it's global functions
    - make needlessly global functions static
    - kyro/STG4000Interface.h: #include video/kyro.h and linux/pci.h
    instead of a manual "struct pci_dev"
    - i810_main.{c,h}: prototypes for static functions belong to the
    C file

  • 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!
