If a device exposes a sparsely populated configuration ROM,
firewire-core's sysfs interface and character device file interface
showed random data in the gaps between config ROM blocks. Fix this by
zero-initialization of the config ROM reader's scratch buffer.

The stack size of 16 was artificially chosen and may be too small in
extreme cases. A device won't be accessible then.
Since it doesn't really matter to the slab allocator whether we ask for
1088 bytes or 2048 bytes of scratch memory, just allocate 2048 bytes for
the sum of temporary config ROM image and stack, and we will never ever
overflow the stack (because there simply can't be more stack items than
ROM entries).

It never happened yet, but better safe than sorry: If a device's config
ROM contains a block which overlaps the boundary at 0xfffff00007ff, just
ignore that one block instead of refusing to add the device
representation. That way, upper layers (kernelspace or userspace
drivers) might still be able to use the device to some degree.
That's better than total inaccessibility of the device. Worse, the core
would have logged only a generic "giving up on config rom" message which
could only be debugged by feeding a firewire-ohci debug logging session
through a config ROM interpreter, IOW would likely remain undiagnosed.

The Panasonic AG-DV2500 tape deck contains an invalid entry in its
configuration ROM root directory: A leaf pointer with the undefined key
ID 0 and an offset that points way out of the standard config ROM area.
This caused firewire-core to dismiss the device with the generic log
message "giving up on config rom for node id...", after which it was of
course impossible to access the tape deck with dvgrab or any other
program. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449252#c29
The fix is to simply ignore this invalid ROM entry and proceed to read
the valid rest of the ROM. There is a catch though: When the kernel
later iterates over the ROM, it would be nasty having to check again for
such too large ROM offsets. Therefore we manipulate the defective or
unsupported ROM entry to become a harmless immediate entry that won't
have any side effects later (an entry with the value 0x00000000).

Several config ROM related functions only peek at the ROM cache; mark
their arguments as const pointers. Ditto fw_device.config_rom and
fw_unit.directory, as the memory behind them is meant to be write-once.

The core (sysfs attributes), the firedtv driver, and possible future
drivers all read strings from some configuration ROM directory. Factor
out the generic code from show_text_leaf() into a new helper function,
modified slightly to handle arbitrary buffer sizes.

This extra check will avoid Broadcast_Channel register related traffic
to many IIDC, SBP-2, and AV/C devices which aren't IRMC or have a
max_rec < 8 (i.e. support < 512 bytes async payload). This avoids a
little bit of traffic after bus reset and is even more careful with
devices which don't implement this CSR.
The assumption is that no other protocol than IP over 1394 uses the
broadcast channel for streams.

The IP-over-1394 driver will add child devices beneath card devices
which are not of type fw_device. Hence firewire-core's callbacks in
device_for_each_child() and device_find_child() need to check for the
device type now.

Retrieval of an fw_unit's parent is a common pattern in high-level code.
Wrap it up as device = fw_parent_device(unit).

The source files of firewire-core, firewire-ohci, firewire-sbp2, i.e.
"drivers/firewire/fw-*.c"
are renamed to
"drivers/firewire/core-*.c",
"drivers/firewire/ohci.c",
"drivers/firewire/sbp2.c".
The old fw- prefix was redundant to the directory name. The new core-
prefix distinguishes the files according to which driver they belong to.
This change comes a little late, but still before further firewire
drivers are added as anticipated RSN.
