[git patches] tulip fixes from parisc-linux

[Kyle McMartin]

Hi Val,

Sorry it took so long for me to get around to splitting
up the changes from the parisc-linux tree. But here
they finally are. This patchset has been running on a
variety of parisc and ia64 machines for quite some
time (several years...) without issue. Some of these
are more cosmetic changes than anything else.

Cheers,
	Kyle M.

Kyle,
dude, you rock!
Many thanks for doing that.

I just wanted to warn that some of the changes are already in akpm
's tree (-mm).
Becuase off hand I've forgotten which ones, would it be better to
diff against -mm instead?

thanks,
grant

hm.  A couple of those patches have been futzing around in -mm for over a
year and have been nacked by Jeff and are a regular source of grumpygrams. 
I've been sitting on them in the pathetic hope that someone will one day
get down and address the bugs which they fix in an acceptable fashion,
whatever that is.

Jeff/Val seemed willing to merge the fixes as they stood. parisc-linux
merged Francois' tulip workqueue patch some time ago, and have been
running with it since without issue. This defers the tulip_select_media
work to process context, and so should be less of an issue.

Cheers,
	Kyle

Good to hear.  That's definitely my preference for future direction...

Hey Kyle,

Thanks for splitting these out.  Could you do us a favor and post the
patches themselves?  I'm not the only one who doesn't use git, and it
will be a lot less confusing if we can directly ack the patches in
email instead of referring to them third-hand.  Thanks,

-VAL
