Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

Unloading the low-level driver module of a FireWire host can lead to
all sorts of trouble if a raw1394 userspace client is using the host.
Just disallow it by incrementing the LLD's module reference count on
a RAW1394_REQ_SET_CARD write operation. Decrement it when the file
is closed.
This feature wouldn't be relevant if "modprobe -r video1394" or
"modprobe -r dv1394" didn't automatically unload ohci1394 too.

This patch consolidates some bookkeeping for driver registering. It
closely models what pci_register_driver() does. The main addition is
that the owner of the driver is set, so we get a proper symlink
for /sys/bus/ieee1394/driver/*/module.
Also moves setting of name and bus type into nodemgr. Because of this,
we can remove the EXPORT_SYMBOL for ieee1394_bus_type, since it's now
only used in ieee1394.ko.

Known to be affected:
- libdc1394: prefers video1394 for now, old-style raw1394 support might
be dropped eventually
- OpenH323 PWLib, AVC video input module: uses libraw1394's old API

A deactivated macro, defined as "#define foo(bar)", will result in
silent corruption if somebody forgets a semicolon after a call to foo.
Replace it by "#define foo(bar) do {} while (0)" which will reveal any
respective syntax errors.

An already existing wait queue replaces raw1394's complete_sem which was
maintained in parallel to the wait queue. The role of the semaphore's
counter is taken over by a direct check of what was really counted: The
presence of items in the list of completed requests.
Notes:
- raw1394_release() sleeps uninterruptibly until all requests were
completed. This is the same behaviour as before the patch.
- The macros wait_event and wait_event_interruptible are called with a
condition argument which has a side effect, i.e. manipulation of the
requests list. This side effect happens only if the condition is
true. The patch relies on the fact that wait_event[_interruptible]
does not evaluate the condition again after it became true.
- The diffstat looks unfavorable with respect to added lines of code.
However 19 of them are comments, and some are due to separation of
existing code blocks into two small helper functions.

The coverity checker spotted that this was a NULL pointer dereference in
the "if (copy_from_user(...))" case since the next step is to
kfree(cache->filled_head).
There's no need to free cache at this point, and it's getting free'd
later.

Changes all spinlocks that can be held during an irq handler to disable
interrupts while the lock is held. Changes spin_[un]lock_irq to use the
irqsave/irqrestore variants for robustness and readability.
In raw1394.c:handle_iso_listen(), don't grab host_info_lock at all -- we're
not accessing host_info_list or host_count, and holding this lock while
trying to tasklet_kill the iso tasklet this can cause an ABBA deadlock if
ohci:dma_rcv_tasklet is running and tries to grab host_info_lock in
raw1394.c:receive_iso. Test program attached reliably deadlocks all SMP
machines I have been able to test without this patch.

- added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t;
- replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly
the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change
generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with
typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

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!
