Patch from Ben Dooks
The request_irq() function is called by s3c24xx uart driver with
the local IRQs disabled. The request_irq() function can allocate
memory via kmalloc(), and this may sleep causing a warning about
sleeping in an invalid context.

Rob Punkunus recently submitted a patch to enable support for MCP51/MCP55 in
the amd74xx driver. This patch was whitespace-corrupted and didn't apply to
2.6.12 since MCP51 support was merged in the 2.6.12-rc series.
Gentoo would like to support this hardware for our upcoming release media, so
I fixed the patch, and here it is :)

No one was looking at the return value of bus_rescan_devices, and it
really wasn't anything that anyone in the kernel would ever care about.
So change it which enabled some counting code to be removed also.

This adds a single file, "bind", to the sysfs directory of every driver
registered with the driver core. To bind a device to a driver, write
the bus id of the device you wish to bind to that specific driver to the
"bind" file (remember to not add a trailing \n). If that bus id matches
a device on that bus, and it does not currently have a driver bound to
it, the probe sequence will be initiated with that driver and device.
Note, this requires that the driver itself be willing and able to accept
that device (usually through a device id type table). This patch does
not make it possible to override the driver's id table.

Remove legacy ISA serial ports for Accent, Boca, Fourport, Hub6 and MCA
from the architecture specific serial.h include.
The only ports which remain in asm-*/serial.h are the platform specific

arch/arm/mach-footbridge/isa.c
