airo.c currently has MICSUPPORT enabled, which requires CONFIG_CRYPTO. A user reported a build failure which is due to the lack of a Kconfig dependency. See http://bugs.debian.org/344205. This patch makes Kconfig enforce this dependency. Signed-off-by:

We have identified two related bugs in the e100 driver. Both bugs are related to manipulation of the MDI control register. The first problem is that the Ready bit is being ignored when writing to the Control register; we noticed this because the Linux bonding driver would occasionally come to the spurious conclusion that the link was down when querying Link State. It turned out that by failing to wait for a previous command to complete it was selecting what was essentially a random register in the MDI register set. When we added code that waits for the Ready bit (as shown in the patch file below) all such problems ceased. The second problem is that, although access to the MDI registers involves multiple steps which must not be intermixed, nothing was defending against two or more threads attempting simultaneous access. The most obvious situation where such interference could occur involves the watchdog versus ioctl paths, but there are probably others, so we recommend the locking shown in our patch file.

There's a problem with the REQ_BLOCK_PC handling as well (bad ->data_len handling) where it could actually complete a request ahead of time. I suggest we just back this out for now, I will resubmit it later when I'm fully confident in it. This reverts commit 8672d571Signed-off-by:

This is part of a patch from Marc Singer to allow r2 to be passed to the kernel. Marc's original comments follow: This revised R2 (atags pointer) patch incorporates comments from Nico Pitre and Ben Dooks. It modifies the head.S files such that the R2 value set by the bootloader is conveyed to the kernel startup code. The kernel head.S heuristically validates the pointer. It will set R2 to zero if it believes the pointer is invalid. Presently, it requires that the ATAGS list reside in the first 16KiB of physical RAM. Relaxing this contraint may be both desirable as well as tricky. Signed-off-by:

we always set ->SCp.ptr to physical address of buffer; for DMA that's just what we need, but we end up using it as virtual address in PIO case of esp_do_data(), with obvious breakage as soon as memory mapping becomes non-trivial. The fix is obvious. Signed-off-by:
