New PXA250 patch available: diff-2.4.19-rmk7-pxa1

A new patch providing support for the Intel XScale-PXA2xx
architecture to the ARM Linux kernel as just been released.

The patch is available from:

  ftp://source.mvista.com/pub/xscale/pxa/
  ftp://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/arm/people/nico/

Build Documentation:

  http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/docs/kerncomp.shtml

ChangeLog:

  - updated to 2.4.19-rmk7  (me)
  - new unified driver for the SMC91x ethernet interfaces  (me)
  - some Trizeps2 module support  (Luc De Cock)
  - support for innokom and csb226  (Robert Schwebel)

The major change here is the addition of the smc91x driver which is an
attempt at cleaning up existing hacks in the smc9194 driver as well as
merging support for the SMC91C111.  I also took the opportunity for fixing
some IRQ races present in the original smc9194.c from which all the other
versions were derived from.  A few performance improvements were also added.

Please consider using smc91x.c instead of smc9194.c or smc91111.c from now.  
There are still some rough edges with regards to driver 
initialisation/cleanup that I intend to fix eventually (if anyone has a good 
idea for that please let me know), then I'll submit the final result for 
replacing the current smc9194.c in the 2.5 tree.

Enjoy!


Nicolas
