This patch changes network devices to run hotplug out of the
kobject/class_device infrastructure rather than calling it
from the network code.  The code gets simpler and there is
only one place for Greg to fix when he changes the API.

All hotplug now happens off the chain:
     rtnl_unlock -> netdev_run_todo -> netdev_sysfs_{un}register

The state flag deadbeef was converted to a state enumeration tp
handle necessary book keeping, and adds some defense against
drivers that have unexpected semantics.

Add support for a new eepro100 PCI ID.

It's using "||" instead of "|".  Makes slab go BUG.

As we'll be checking `status' for errors, it had better not be unsigned.

Fix decnet ioctl(TIOCOUTQ).

This is needed so that apps can set appropriate column widths for PID
display.

Split the dm_create() function into two variants, depending on whether you
want the device to have a specific minor number.  This avoids the broken
overloading of the minor argument to the old dm_create().

From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>, Christoph Rohland <cr@sap.com>

Switches the long GPL blurb which Hugh took from the 2.4-ac version of
mm/shmem.c, back to the original oneliner (as in 2.4.current).

Christoph spotted that the long blurb says "either version 2 of the License,
or (at your option) any later version", whereas he intended it be as COPYING
says, version 2 period.  Hugh and Christoph are happier with known version 2
than undefined future variants.

This patch against current bk removes anon_hash_chain from fs/inode.c, as
all inodes in the 2.5 kernel must be associated with a superblock, and the
anon hash is no longer needed.

(akpm: Well there's one inode with a null i_sb: swapper_inode.  But it
shouldn't get here and if it does, we'll fix it by other means).

Forward-port of a fix Alan merged into 2.4.21-pre.  It fixes arcnet oopses
with raw sockets.
