commit 9d1ac34ec3a67713308ae0883c3359c557f14d17 upstream.

In kernel Bugzilla #15825 (2 users), in a wireless mailing list thread
(http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/b43-dev/2010-May/000124.html), and on a
netbook owned by John Linville
(http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&amp;m=127230751408818&amp;w=4), there are reports
of ssb failing to detect an SPROM at the normal location. After studying the
MMIO trace dump for the Broadcom wl driver, it was determined that the affected
boxes had a relocated SPROM.

This patch fixes all systems that have reported this problem.

Ethernet driver b44 does register ssb by it's pcihost_wrapper
and doesn't set ssb_chipcommon. A check on this value

<title>pcmcia: re-work pcmcia_request_irq()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:eb14120f743d29744d9475bffec56ff4ad43a749</id>
<content type='text'>
Instead of the old pcmcia_request_irq() interface, drivers may now
choose between:

- calling request_irq/free_irq directly. Use the IRQ from *p_dev-&gt;irq.

- use pcmcia_request_irq(p_dev, handler_t); the PCMCIA core will
  clean up automatically on calls to pcmcia_disable_device() or
  device ejection.

- drivers still not capable of IRQF_SHARED (or not telling us so) may
  use the deprecated pcmcia_request_exclusive_irq() for the time
  being; they might receive a shared IRQ nonetheless.

In kernel Bugzilla #15825, a case where routine ssb_bus_pcibus_register()
fails silently is reported. The cause for the failure is still being
investigated; however, the diagnosis would be easier if the failure
had been reported.

<title>ssb: Look for SPROM at different offset on higher rev CC</title>

Our offset handling becomes even a little more hackish now. For some reason I
do not understand all offsets as inrelative. It assumes base offset is 0x1000
but it will work for now as we make offsets relative anyway by removing base
0x1000. Should be cleaner however.

<title>ssb: do not read SPROM if it does not exist</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d53cdbb94a52a920d5420ed64d986c3523a56743</id>
<content type='text'>
Attempting to read registers that don't exist on the SSB bus can cause
hangs on some boxes.  At least some b43 devices are 'in the wild' that
don't have SPROMs at all.  When the SSB bus support loads, it attempts
to read these (non-existant) SPROMs and causes hard hangs on the box --
no console output, etc.

This patch adds some intelligence to determine whether or not the SPROM
is present before attempting to read it.  This avoids those hard hangs
on those devices with no SPROM attached to their SSB bus.  The
SSB-attached devices (e.g. b43, et al.) won't work, but at least the box
will survive to test further patches. :-)
