[git pull] FireWire updates post 2.6.34

(Sorry, got Subject and Cc wrong in the previous mail.)

Linus, please pull from the for-linus branch at

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ieee1394/linux1394-2.6.git for-linus

to receive the following IEEE 1394/ FireWire subsystem updates.
You will get a trivial conflict in feature-removal-schedule.txt which,
AFAIU, you would fix up yourselves. (If not, pull the 'post-2.6.34'
branch instead which contains an additional trivial merge commit.)

We have got here:
- Mark character device files of the old ieee1394 stack and of the new
firewire stack as not seekable. Otherwise somebdy might think that
these drivers had a use for the BKL grabbing default seek handler.
(They don't.)
- Transaction layer fixes. Tweaks to PHY chip settings.
- Announcement of drivers/ieee1394 to be removed in 2.6.37.

Thanks.
