This patch removes the pnp name database code.  Most buses, including
pnp, will be using userspace to name devices in the near future.  Also
dev->name will be removed from the driver model soon.

This patch moves the low level bios calls to a separate file, 
"bioscalls.c".  It is a cleanup that will improve organization of the
pnpbios driver code.

This patch is needed in order to avoid a potential oops.  It is
similiar to the changes made to pci.

This patch moves the resource parsing functions from support.c to the
pnpbios driver.  Originally these functions were intended for other
pnp protocols but in reality they are only used by the PnPBIOS driver.
This patch greatly cleans up the code in both the parsing functions
and their connection with the pnpbios driver.  Also note that
pnpbios.h has been added for local pnpbios functions.

This is not needed.

  This patch is similar to the disabled resource patch in that it
  avoids direct numeric comparisons with data in unset resource
  structures.

So make sure to include it in <asm-i386/hardirq.h> when needed
(ie for the CONFIG_PREEMPT case).

Fix up a few places where we marked __initdata as being const.

This causes a section conflict (init section vs .rodata)

constant values should not end up in the BSS.

We're better off having the compiler put it in the .rodata
section (which it will, thanks to the initializer and the
"const"), since that will result in it being nicely cacheable
in shared SMP caches.

use module_param, removed __setup code,
general cleanup (mostly of comments and trailing spaces, also removed include of config.h),
made the watchdog's timeout a module_param.

1. pci_device_id structures shouldn't be __devinitdata.  Greg removed
   all of the instances of this in the 2.6.0-test1 tree, but unforunately
   my recent coversion of lanai.c introduced another one.

2. The lanai PCI id constants have now been merged into the kernel headers
   so we don't need to define our own copies.

3. The ioctl's exported by lanai shouldn't be - they were intended for
   debugging only, never for release.  For now they're just '#if 0'ed out.
   They're somewhat dangerous since they don't check any capabilities so
   any user could DoS the interface.

Orginally from Pavel Machek.

- Create kernel/power/console.c
- Rename prepare_suspend_console() to pm_prepare_console() and 
  restore_console() to pm_restore_console().
- Add prototypes to include/linux/suspend.h.
- Make kernel/power/console.o dependent only on CONFIG_PM
- Simplify logic for SUSPEND_CONSOLE define
- Make software_resume() prepare console much earlier, so we can localize
  the loglevel variables in console.c. 
- Remove #ifdef CONFIG_VT from console.c, and just check for SUSPEND_CONSOLE.
  (Perhaps we should make entire file dependent on CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE?)
- Add kernel/power/power.h to share things across local files.

- Call blk_run_queues() from do_software_suspend() directly, instead of 
  wrapping it in helper function.
- Get rid of ominous compiler warning. 
- Change BUG_ON(in_interrupt()) to might_sleep() in software_suspend(), so
  we still get back trace, but don't actually BUG().
