In order to work around old LILO versions providing an invalid ss
register, the current setup code always sets up a new stack,
immediately following .bss and the heap. But this breaks LOADLIN.
This rewrite of the workaround checks for an invalid stack (ss!=ds)
first, and leaves ss:sp alone otherwise (apart from aligning esp).
[hpa note: LOADLIN has a number of arbitrary hard-coded limits that
are being pushed up against. Without some major revision of LOADLIN
itself it will not be sustainable keeping it alive. This gives it
another brief lease on life, however. This patch also helps the
cmdline truncation problem with old versions of SYSLINUX.]

This patch (as1010) was written by both Kay Sievers and me. It solves
the problem of duplicated keys in USB uevent structures by refactoring
the uevent subroutines, taking advantage of the way the hotplug core
calls uevent handlers for the device's bus and for the device's type.
Keys needed for both USB-device and USB-interface events are added in
usb_uevent(), which is the bus handler. Keys appropriate only for
USB-device or USB-interface events are added in usb_dev_uevent() or
usb_if_uevent() respectively, the type handlers.
In addition, unnecessary tests for NULL pointers are removed as are
duplicated debugging log statements.

Two main issues fixed here are:
- An improper use of in-struct lock to protect an open count
- Use of urb status for -EINPROGRESS
Also, along the way:
- Change usb_unlink_urb to usb_kill_urb. Apparently there's no need
to use usb_unlink_urb whatsoever in this driver, and the old use of
usb_kill_urb was outright racy (it unlinked and immediately freed).
- Fix indentation in adu_write. Looks like it was damaged by a script.
- Vitaly wants -EBUSY on multiply opens.
- bInterval was taken from a wrong endpoint.

I found that there is a off-by-one problem in the following code.
Version: 2.6.24-rc2
File: fs/sysfs/file.c:118-122
Function: fill_read_buffer
--------------------------------------------------------------------
count = ops->show(kobj, attr_sd->s_attr.attr, buffer->page);
sysfs_put_active_two(attr_sd);
BUG_ON(count > (ssize_t)PAGE_SIZE);
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Because according to the specification of the sysfs and the implement of
the show methods, the show methods return the number of bytes which would
be generated for the given input, excluding the trailing null.So if the
return value of the show methods equals PAGE_SIZE - 1, the buffer is full
in fact. And if the return value equals PAGE_SIZE, the resulting string
was already truncated,or buffer overflow occurred.
This patch fixes an off-by-one error in fill_read_buffer.

The CONFIG_SUSPEND changes in 2.6.23 caused a regression under certain
configuration conditions (SUSPEND=n, USB_AUTOSUSPEND=y) where all USB
device attributes in sysfs (idVendor, idProduct, ...) silently disappeared,
causing udev breakage and more.
The cause of this is that the /sys/.../power subdirectory is now only
created when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is set, however, it should be created whenever
CONFIG_PM is set to handle the above situation. The following patch fixes
