It should fix the soundblaster bug with mixers being left behind. I've
still got to go through and check all the -1's are set right in each driver
though.
Contributed sound driver changes include a fix for the "GUS bug", and
a test OPL3SA2/3 driver.
I've added spinlocking for the DMA controller. Please will folks with the
problem VIA (and other boards) try this. My belief is that it won't make
a blind bit of difference in the VIA case. Certainly the floppy driver
appears to be doing things pretty close to right. The only obviously wrong
DMA handling I found was in my z85230 driver.
If my suspicions are right in the VIA case I'll need to add a udelay(10)
in the right places.
The full differences v Linus tree are
o Misc trivial typo fixes and stuff
o Some small tweaks for the IDT winchip (experimental)
o Scott Ananian's rewritten time handling. This works wonderfully
on my Cyrixes and I know get stable high accuracy time. Also
on boxes compiled with APM
o >16 SCSI disk support from Jirka Hanika
o Modular ps2esdi
o Cyrix console (randomness that just happens to be in my tree)
o Ted Tso's fix for the tty lockup in state 'D' (and fifo's too)
o The collected fixes for device names writing to constant strings
o Bug in cops documentation
o Strip update for 2.1.x kernels from the Mosquitonet folks
o Misc syncppp/z85230 bug fixes
o SCSI tape flush() fix
o DMA spinlocks
o OPL3SA2 test driver
o Soundblaster fix
o Cleaned up bracketing for ad1848
o GUS driver hang fix
o NFS FIFO handling
o /proc inode numbers
o Using AVL trees for VMAs on large counts
o RPC handles node name changes correctly
