[SERIAL] 8250 woraround for buggy uart
Patch from Alex Williamson
This patch adds support for detecting and working around a bug in
the A2 rev of the Exar ST16C2550 UART. The chip incorrectly
advertises an EFR and mis-detects as having the wrong size FIFO.
Much of the patch below is Russell's proposed solution to the
problem. The only changes I've made are to check the FIFO size
on the part (because there is a real part with the same divisor
ID and larger FIFO) and save and restore the LCR register around
the size_fifo() routine (it doesn't work correctly with a LCR
value of 0xBF).

Christoph Lameter's patch that change page allocators to use GFP_ZERO
broke ppc32 in a subtle way. Our allocator is designed to work before
mem_init_done, in which cases it uses a ppc specific early_get_page()
which doesn't return zeroed pages. However, he removed the call to
clear_page() unconditionally, thus causing the kernel initial page
tables to have random data in them.
They are initialized with set_pte, which means it's _mostly_ harmless,
except that set_pte on ppc32 preserves the _PAGE_HASHPTE bit, thus we
end up with random bits there, which can cause issues with further
manipulation of the kernel page tables and will slow down all hash
faults to them causing unnecessary searches.

[PATCH] natsemi long cable fix
This is a minor modification to the previous patch submission that does
not assume the default contents of the DSPCFG register are zero.
When used with Revision D of the DP83815, the "Recommended Registers
Configuration" from page 78 of the DP83815 data sheet is not entirely
compatible with the driver's "short cable patch". When the DSPCFG
register is written with the value suggested in the document, then
do_cable_magic() can't read the DSP coefficient and determines that all
cables attached to the DP83815D are 'short', regardless of actual
length. Short cables (< 30m) cause do_cable_magic to enable additional
attenuation to reduce CRC and idle errors. If the extra attenuation is
unintentionally enabled for long cables (> 50m?), they will not operate
properly. The National Semiconductor driver, 'dp83815.c' from
http://www.national.com/appinfo/networks/files/linux_2_4.tar.gz was used
as a basis for this modification.
