If I skip the feature-removal-schedule procedure, the resulting code is
a lot nicer. I prefer this updated patch and I consider it a candidate
for before 2.6.22-rc1.

Subject: ieee1394: eth1394: don't autoload by hotplug when ohci1394 starts

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 .

Autoloading of eth1394 when an _external_ IP-over-1394 capable device is
discovered is _not_ affected by this patch.
