Until now, ieee1394 put an IP-over-1394 capability entry into each new
host's config ROM. As soon as the controller was initialized --- i.e.
right after modprobe ohci1394 --- this entry triggered a hotplug event
which typically caused auto-loading of eth1394.
This irritated or annoyed many users and distributors. Of course they
could blacklist eth1394, but then ieee1394 wrongly advertized IP-over-
1394 capability to the FireWire bus.
Therefore
- remove the offending kernel config option
IEEE1394_CONFIG_ROM_IP1394,
- let eth1394 add the ROM entry by itself, i.e. only after eth1394 was
loaded.
This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7793 .
To emulate the behaviour of older kernels, simply add the following to
to /etc/modprobe.conf:
install ohci1394 /sbin/modprobe eth1394; \
/sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ohci1394
Note, autoloading of eth1394 when an _external_ IP-over-1394 capable
device is discovered is _not_ affected by this patch.

This considerably reduces the memory requirements for a packet and
eliminates ieee1394's dependency on CONFIG_NET.

Nobody ported ffmpeg from dv1394 to rawiso yet, and there is no
justification to remove dv1394 right now.
Nevertheless, a strong deprecation of this ABI makes a lot of sense,
especially as Kristian H's drivers shape up to be an attractive
alternative to the existing ones. But we don't have a schedule at the
moment.

There is no manpower available to reform oui.db into a library for use
in more kernel subsystems. The low ratio of usefulness to size and the
occasional need to update oui.db from IEEE's official list suggest to
drop oui.db. I plan to make a userspace script available which
translates the remaining numeric sysfs attributes to names of
organizations.

Remove the Audio and Music Data Transmission Protocol driver and the

Lots of this patch is trivial code cleanups (static vars were being
intialized to 0, etc).
There's also some fixes for ISO transmits (max buffer handling).
Aswell, we have a few fixes to disable IRM capabilites correctly. We've
also disabled, by default some generally unused EXPORT symbols for the
sake of cleanliness in the kernel. However, instead of removing them
completely, we felt it necessary to have a config option that allowed
them to be enabled for the many projects outside of the main kernel tree
that use our API for driver development.
The primary reason for this patch is to revert a MODE6->MODE10 RBC
conversion patch from the SCSI maintainers. The new conversions handled
directly in the scsi layer do not seem to work for SBP2. This patch
reverts to our old working code so that users can enjoy using Firewire
disks and dvd drives again.
We are working with the SCSI maintainers to resolve this issue outside
of the main kernel tree. We'll merge the patch once the SCSI layer's
handling of the MODE10 conversion is working for us.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
