preserve /proc/ppc64/rtas/rmo_buffer, which is needed by librtas.

This change from March 3rd causes the partition parsing code to ignore
partitions which have a signature byte of zero. Turns out that more people
have such partitions than we expected, and their device numbering is coming up
wrong in post-2.6.11 kernels.
So revert the change while we think about the problem a bit more.

There's a slight bug in the routines in that if the period requires dt,
then the routine will unconditionally set it. DT may only be set if
Wide is also set, so this turns back on the wide bit.
For domain validation to work correctly, we need to observe the wide bit
absolutely.

Drop the use of a tmp buffer in the audit_buffer, and just buffer
directly to the skb. All header data that was temporarily stored in
the audit_buffer can now be stored directly in the netlink header in
the skb. Resize skb as needed. This eliminates the extra copy (and
the audit_log_move function which was responsible for copying).

Introduce audit_expand and make the audit_buffer use a dynamic buffer
which can be resized. When audit buffer is moved to skb it will not
be fragmented across skb's, so we can eliminate the sklist in the
audit_buffer. During audit_log_move, we simply copy the full buffer
into a single skb, and then audit_log_drain sends it on.

shutdown credential information. It creates a new message type
AUDIT_TERM_INFO, which is used by the audit daemon to query who issued the
shutdown.
It requires the placement of a hook function that gathers the information. The
hook is after the DAC & MAC checks and before the function returns. Racing
threads could overwrite the uid & pid - but they would have to be root and
have policy that allows signalling the audit daemon. That should be a
manageable risk.
The userspace component will be released later in audit 0.7.2. When it
receives the TERM signal, it queries the kernel for shutdown information.
When it receives it, it writes the message and exits. The message looks
like this:
type=DAEMON msg=auditd(1114551182.000) auditd normal halt, sending pid=2650
uid=525, auditd pid=1685

The defines in bootinfo.h are not used, so the include can be removed.
According to Ben, birecs are not used on ppc64:
on ppc64, we made the decision of enforcing the presence of an
OF device-tree and either an OF-like client interface or a kexec
like flattened tree.
so if your bootloader want to say things to the kernel,
it can do so by adding properties to the device-tree

The code in unflatten_device_tree knows that get_property is written to
only return with lenp equal to 1 when also returning a valid pointer.
The gcc 3.3.3 compiler is not able to prove this to itself, so it warns
about a possible uninitialized pointer dereference:
.../arch/ppc64/kernel/prom.c: In function `unflatten_device_tree':
.../arch/ppc64/kernel/prom.c:828:
warning: `p' might be used uninitialized in this function
Unless it is desired to rework the interaction between the two
functions, this will keep the existing behavior but quiet the compiler.

Attached is a patch to bttv which fixes the following problems.
Affected cards and problems:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
o VP-1020 (200103A) Tuning problems, device detection.
o VP-1020 (DST-MOT) Errors during tuning, device detection fails in a while.
o VP-1030 (DST-CI) Tuning sometimes fails after CI commands.
o VP-2031 (DCT-CI) Tuning problems
The timeout happens before the actual timeout occured in the MCU
on the board, and hence the problems.
Changes: (bttv-i2c.diff)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
o Changed the custom wait queue to wait_event_interruptible_timeout()
- Suggestion by Johannes Stezenbach.
o Fixed the wait queue timeout problem
- This fixes the timeout problem on various cards.
- This problem was visible as many
* Cannot tune to channels, when signal levels are very low.
* app_info does not work in some conditions for CI based cards
- Smaller values worked good for newer cards, but the older cards
suffered, settled down to the worst case values that could happen in any
eventuality.
