instead of accessing the data directly.

	To review, this patch deletes pci_dev.driver_data, using the
existing pci_dev.device.driver_data field instead, thereby shrinking
struct pci_dev by four bytes on 32-bit machines.  The few device
drivers that attempted to directly reference pci_dev.driver_data were
fixed in a patch of mine that Jeff Garzik got into 2.5.45.  Also,
making this change should help with memory allocation improvements in
the future, although that's a separate issue.

1-fix-lowlat:

QA found that running all four ports at 460800 would drop data. I
traced it to data being dropped in the read callback because the flip
buffers were full. Turning on the low latency flag fixed things.

2-fix-taint

A side-effect of turning on low latency; the interrupt context from
the callback is now passed through to the tty layer, passing it on to
calls back into usb-serial.c. Which causes deadlocks when trying to
re-acquire the per-port semaphore. We've already talked about this.
This patch is my work-around for the usb-serial.c brokenness.
Basically, implemement a buffering scheme, and schedule a software
interrupt to handle the data handoff to the tty layer sometime later.
urb_pool_size defaults to 8, but is a module parameter and can be
modified at runtime.
The buffering is needed so that the driver can run while data is
waiting to be processed, but I could have used the tty layer
scheduling instead of doing my own by turning off low latency.
However, I looked at the tty layer and it seems to me that there's
nothing preventing a really fast device from flipping one buffer,
flipping the next, and flipping back to the still full buffer from
before (actually, the flip just gets scheduled for later), so my
driver needs to be able to hold onto buffered data and schedule them
for processing later anyway. So, might as well leave low_latency on.

Attached is a patch that changes the 2.5.x disconnect to be similar to
2.4.x disconnect. This doesn't fix the race, but does shrink the
window such that I've never seen it trigger, even under testing
designed to do that.

There doesn't seem to be a good way to fix the race. The fix should be
to have _disconnect force any sleeping semaphore holders to run to
completion between the end of the loop in the patch below and the spot
where the underlying memory is freed, but I don't see a way to do
that.

This patch cleans up the vicam_decode_color function by removing
unused/useless variables and combining the two "x" loops inside the
y loop into one. It also reduces the number of times that the "x"
loop occurs from 512 to 320 which should provide a decent speed
increase. It also fixes a bug in the y loop that wrote beyond its bound.

After a little absence, here's a patch to bring the Philips Webcam driver up
to version 8.9 (skipping 8.8 which has been available as a download on my
website for a while).

This patch is against 2.5.49, and includes some of the following:
* New USB IDs for Logitech and Visionite webcams.
* Better URB link/unlink sequence when opening/closing device
  and switching resolutions.
* Adding probe for CCD/CMOS sensor type.
* Removed remnants of YUV420 palette stuff.

Also updated the description in 'Kconfig'.
