184f6eb8c4 [PATCH] openfirmware: implement hotplug for macio devices
This adds the hotplug routine for generating hotplug events when devices
are seen on the macio bus.  It uses the attributed created by the sysfs
nodes to generate the hotplug environment vars for userspace.

Since the characters allowed inside the 'compatible' field are NUL
terminated, they are exported as individual OF_COMPATIBLE_# variables,
with OF_COMPATIBLE_N maintaining a count of how many there are.

In order for hotplug to work with macio devices, patches to
module-init-tools and hotplug must be applied.  Those patches are
available at:

b5bf5b6786 [PATCH] openfirmware: add sysfs nodes for open firmware devices
This adds sysfs nodes that the hotplug userspace can use to load the
appropriate modules.

module-init-tools and hotplug must be applied.  Those patches are

Changes: The previous versions were built on 2.6.12. 2.6.13-rcX introduced
         a device_attribute parameter to the show functions. Since that
         parameter was treated as the output buffer, memory corruption would
         result, causing Oopsen very quickly.

5e6557722e [PATCH] openfirmware: generate device table for userspace
This converts the usage of struct of_match to struct of_device_id,
similar to pci_device_id.  This allows a device table to be generated,
which can be parsed by depmod(8) to generate a map file for module
loading.

f45139044d [PATCH] fix u32 vs. pm_message_t in drivers/macintosh
I thought I'm done with fixing u32 vs.  pm_message_t ...  unfortunately that
turned out not to be the case as Russel King pointed out.  Here are fixes for
drivers/macintosh.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
