7237d3de78 x86, ACPI: add support for x2apic ACPI extensions
All logical processors with APIC ID values of 255 and greater will have their
APIC reported through Processor X2APIC structure (type-9 entry type) and all
logical processors with APIC ID less than 255 will have their APIC reported
through legacy Processor Local APIC (type-0 entry type) only. This is the
same case even for NMI structure reporting.
    
The Processor X2APIC Affinity structure provides the association between the
X2APIC ID of a logical processor and the proximity domain to which the logical
processor belongs.
    
For OSPM, Procssor IDs outside the 0-254 range are to be declared as Device()
objects in the ACPI namespace.

  - Reading/writing individual parameters
  - Reading/writing complete channel, effects setup, and amp setup data
  - Channel switching
  - Virtual MIDI interface
  - Tuner access
  - Playback/capture/mixer device for any  ALSA-compatible PCM audio
    application
  - Signal routing (record clean/processed  guitar signal, re-amping)

Moreover, preliminary support for the Variax Workbench is included.

e642f09951 Staging: add rt3070 wireless driver
This is the Ralink RT3070 driver from the company that does horrible
things like reading a config file from /etc.  However, the driver that
is currently under development from the wireless development community
is not working at all yet, so distros and users are using this version
instead (quite common hardware on a lot of netbook machines).

So here is this driver, for now, until the wireless developers get a
"clean" version into the main tree, or until this version is cleaned up
sufficiently to move out of the staging tree.

Ported to the Linux build system, fixed lots of build issues, forward
ported to the current kernel version, and other minor cleanups were all
done by me.

This resolves a lot of the more obvious sparse warnings in the code.

There still are some major problems in the ioctl handlers dealing with

Also, the locking seems to be a bit strange in places, which sparse
points out, that too need to be resolved.

The core hardware architecture of Intel Active Management Technology
(Intel AMT) is resident in firmware. The micro-controller within the
chipset's graphics and memory controller (GMCH) hub houses the
Management Engine (ME) firmware, which implements various services
on behalf of management applications.

Some of the ME subsystems that can be access via MEI driver:

- Intel(R) Quiet System Technology (QST) is implemented as a firmware
subsystem  that  runs in the ME.  Programs that wish to expose the
health monitoring and fan speed control capabilities of Intel(R) QST
will need to use the MEI driver to communicate with the ME sub-system.
- ASF is the "Alert Standard Format" which is an DMTF manageability
standard. It is implemented in the PC's hardware and firmware, and is
managed from a remote console.

Most recent Intel desktop chipsets have one or more of the above ME
services. The MEI driver will make it possible to support the above
features on Linux and provides applications access to the ME and it's
features.

It's nicer than doing kmalloc/memset.

Also check the return value of all allocations, one was previously not
being checked properly.

0f386e2b4c Staging: p9auth: fix up sparse warnings
Everything needs to be static, as sparse complains and you don't want to
polute the global kernel symbol namespace.  So mark everything as such
and move one function around to prevent a forward declaration from being
needed.
