[PATCH 2.6.17-rc5-mm2 07/18] ieee1394: support for slow links or slow1394b phy ports

[Stefan Richter]

ieee1394: support for slow links or slow 1394b phy ports

Add support for the following types of hardware:
 + nodes that have a link speed < PHY speed
 + 1394b PHYs that are less than S800 capable
 + 1394b/1394a adapter cable between two 1394b PHYs
Also, S1600 and S3200 are now supported if IEEE1394_SPEED_MAX is raised.

A probing function is added to nodemgr's config ROM fetching routine
which adjusts the allowable speed if an access problem was encountered.
Pros and Cons of the approach:
 + minimum code footprint to support this less widely used hardware
 + nearly no overhead for unaffected hardware
 - ineffective before nodemgr began to read the ROM of affected nodes
 - ineffective if ieee1394 is loaded with disable_nodemgr=1
The speed map CSRs which are published to the bus are not touched by the
patch.

TODO:
Update the speed map CSRs to reflect actual speeds.  Although the speed
map CSRs have been deprecated by IEEE 1394a-2000, there was a request to
continue to publish it on the bus to help application programs figure
out the correct speed.  The patch only probes connections between local
node and remote nodes though, not between two remote nodes.  The latter
requires to read phy port registers unless the local node is situated
between the two remote nodes.  IMO this should be implemented as a
separate helper thread.
