On the sam9 EK boards, the LCD backlight is hooked up to a PWM output from
the LCD controller. It's controlled by "contrast" registers though.
This patch lets boards declare that they have that kind of backlight
control. The driver can then export this control, letting screenblank and
other operations actually take effect ... reducing the typically
substantial power drain from the backlight.
Note that it's not fully cooked
- doesn't force backlight off during system suspend
- the "power" and "blank" events may not be done right
This should be easily added in the future.

Avoid displaying garbage on unused framebuffers. For most users a single
framebuffer is used together with fbcon. sm501fb supports two framebuffers
where one often is assigned to fbcon and the other one is left unused during
the boot.
The problem here is that framebuffers not in use by fbcon happen to display
garbage. This can easily be solved by making sure that framebuffer memory and
palette ram are cleared.
The problem can be observed by using looking at the panel output (fb1) after
booting the kernel with fbcon on crt (fb0). This is the default
configuration. It's also possible to watch the garbage on the crt framebuffer
by passing "fbcon=map:1" on the kernel cmdline. This will assign fbcon to the
panel (fb1) and leave the crt (fb0) unused.

This patch makes it possible to control panel pins usage with flags passed
from the platform data. Without this patch the sm501fb driver always controls
the VBIASEN and FPEN pins. The polarity and use of these pins are very
platform specific, so this patch introduces the flags
SM501FB_FLAG_PANEL_USE_VBIASEN and SM501FB_FLAG_PANEL_USE_FPEN which enable
the use of these pins.
This patch is needed to support the a Sharp LQ104V1DG21 lcd panel on SuperH
platforms such as R2D-1 and R2D-PLUS boards. Letting the sm501fb driver
control the FPEN and VBIASEN pins like today just results in lcd panel
flicker.

The current nvidiafb_check_var() simply bails out if the selected mode is
out of range of the panel dimensions. A good question would be why the
bogus mode is being selected in the first place -- the panel dimensions
that are read back are certainly bogus, but alas, I have no idea where to
even begin looking at the i2c/EDID/DDC mess:
nvidiafb: Device ID: 10de0165
nvidiafb: CRTC0 analog not found
nvidiafb: CRTC1 analog not found
nvidiafb: EDID found from BUS1
nvidiafb: CRTC 0 is currently programmed for DFP
nvidiafb: Using DFP on CRTC 0
nvidiafb: Panel size is 1280 x 1024
nvidiafb: Panel is TMDS
nvidiafb: unable to setup MTRR
nvidiafb: Flat panel dithering disabled
nvidiafb: PCI nVidia NV16 framebuffer (64MB @ 0xC0000000)
In my .config I presently have:
CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID=y
CONFIG_FB_DDC=y
CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA_I2C=y
I've not tried fiddling with these options, as I haven't the vaguest idea
what I should be looking at.
As a workaround, simply groveling for a new mode based on the probed
dimensions seems to work ok. While it would be nice to debug this further
and sort out why the panel information is bogus, I think it's still worth
retrying the mode based on the panel information at hand as a last-ditch
effort, rather than simply bailing out completely.

AT91sam9 RTC support, primarily in the form of an RTT-as-RTC driver that was
extracted from 2.6.23-at91 patch and updated:
- Relies on now-merged platform updates, which associate the RTT
hardware address with each RTT and use the "at91_rtt" name.
- RTC framework related fixes and cleanups, notably:
* removed now-needless suspend/resume clock offset logic
* alarm read/write now respects the "enabled" flag
* suspend always disables update irqs
* shutdown (and startup) disables all irqs
- Misc cleanup:
* use dev_*() messaging
* add comments
* remove globals,
* ... etc
- Don't force use of RTT0 and GPBR0. Either resource may need
to be used for other purposes (like NO_HZ support).
- Update "AT91RM9200 RTC" Kconfig to allow it on SAM9RL chips
(it has both RTT and RTC).
Driver binding uses bus_find_device() to avoid needing any kind of "timer
library" code when there's more than one RTT module. (This timer can be used
as an RTC, to support NO_HZ operation, or potentially for other stuff. The
choice is a per-system policy.)

Start making the rtc-cmos alarm act more like a oneshot alarm by disabling
that alarm after its IRQ fires. (ACPI hooks are also needed.)
The Linux RTC framework has previously been a bit vague in this area, but
any other behavior is problematic and not very portable. RTCs with full
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM[:SS] alarms won't have a problem here. Only ones with
partial match criteria, with the most visible example being the PC RTC, get
confused. (Because the criteria will match repeatedly.)
Update comments relating to that oneshot behavior and timezone handling.
(Timezones are another issue that's mostly visible with rtc-cmos. That's
because PCs often dual-boot MS-Windows, which likes its RTC to match local
wall-clock time instead of UTC.)

This makes rtc-cmos export its NVRAM, like several other RTC drivers.
It still works within the limits of the current CMOS_READ/CMOS_WRITE calls,
which don't understand how to access multiple register banks. The primary
impact of that limitation is that Linux can't access the uppermost 128
bytes of NVRAM on many systems.
Note that this isn't aiming to be a drop-in replacement for the legacy
/dev/nvram support. (Presumably that has real users, and isn't just
getting carried forward automatically?) Userspace handles more work:
- When userspace code updates NVRAM, that will need to include
updating any platform-specific checksums that may apply.
- No /proc/driver/nvram file will parse and display NVRAM data
according to whichever boot firmware your board expects.
Also minor pnp-related updates: update a comment, remove dead code.

Libfuse basically creates a new thread for each new request. This is fine for
synchronous requests, which are naturally limited. However background
requests (especially writepage) can cause a thread creation storm.
To avoid this, limit the number of background requests available to userspace.
This is done by introducing another queue for background requests, and a
counter for the number of "active" requests, which are currently available for
userspace.
