What's in linux1394-2.6.git?

The following list of firewire subsystem changes are planned to be
included in the next pull request. We basically have a number of
firewire-core feature extensions, primarily for userspace drivers,
secondarily for kernelspace drivers. These extensions are essential for
the firewire backend of libdc1394 and good-to-have for the firewire
backend of libraw1394.

With these changes, functionality of libdc1394 on the newer firewire
driver stack not only catches up to libdc1394 on the classic ieee1394
stack but surpasses it. (On Linux, libdc1394 is the basic framework for
IIDC based video acquisition in industrial and research settings.)

Jay Fenlason deserves most of the credit for the queued-up work. He
also implemented several of the firewire-cdev extensions first; I merely
redid them based on his implementation.

David Moore (1):
firewire: Include iso timestamp in headers when header_size > 4

Jay Fenlason (4):
firewire: add a client_list_lock
firewire: cdev: use an idr rather than a linked list for resources
firewire: implement asynchronous stream transmission
firewire: broadcast channel support

Jay Fenlason, Stefan Richter (2):
firewire: cdev: add ioctls for isochronous resource management
firewire: cdev: add ioctl for broadcast write requests

Stefan Richter (44):

firewire: cdev: amendment to "add ioctl to query maximum transmission speed"
firewire: cdev: secure add_descriptor ioctl
firewire: cdev: fix race of ioctl_send_request with bus reset
firewire: cdev: simplify FW_CDEV_IOC_SEND_REQUEST return value
firewire: cdev: add closure to async stream ioctl
firewire: core: drop unused call parameters of close_transaction
firewire: core: increase bus manager grace period

Tobias Klauser (1):
ieee1394: Storage class should be before const qualifier
