ChangeLog:

  - add preload support to copy_page()  (me)
  - add preload support to copy_to_user()/copy_from_user()  (me)

    [see Configure.help text for usage, modified mkcramfs included]
  - fix compilation problems with gcc-3.3  (me)
  - correctly handle the Lubbock IRQ controller sanely at last  (me)

  - don't shut down UART clock on the serial console  (me)
    [initial fix by  Kent Forschmiedt]
  - assorted smc91x improvements/fixes  (me)
    [it now copes with the chip losing track of its own memory
     which seems to happen even on a SMC91C96 after a while]
  - reworked Makefile for pxa_cs.o fixing modular build  (me)
  - ffs()/fls()/ffz() defined around the clz instruction on ARMv5+  (me)
  - apparently better timing settings for PCMCIA  (Jeff Lackey)
