-Overview

-This driver implements the support for Linux of Silicon Labs (Silabs)
-C2 Interface used for in-system programming of micro controllers.

-By using this driver you can reprogram the in-system flash without EC2
-or EC3 debug adapter. This solution is also useful in those systems
-where the micro controller is connected via special GPIOs pins.

-
-Using the driver
-----------------
-
-Once the driver is loaded you can use sysfs support to get C2port's

-
-# ls /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/
-access flash_block_size flash_erase rev_id
-dev_id flash_blocks_num flash_size subsystem/
-flash_access flash_data reset uevent
-
-Initially the C2port access is disabled since you hardware may have
-such lines multiplexed with other devices so, to get access to the
-C2port, you need the command:
-
-# echo 1 > /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/access
-
-after that you should read the device ID and revision ID of the
-connected micro controller:
-
-# cat /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/dev_id
-8
-# cat /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/rev_id
-1
-
-However, for security reasons, the in-system flash access in not
-enabled yet, to do so you need the command:
-
-# echo 1 > /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/flash_access
-
-After that you can read the whole flash:
-
-# cat /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/flash_data > image
-
-erase it:
-
-# echo 1 > /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/flash_erase
-
-and write it:
-
-# cat image > /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/flash_data
-
-after writing you have to reset the device to execute the new code:
-
-# echo 1 > /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/reset

-Kernel driver ics932s401
-======================
-
-Supported chips:
- * IDT ICS932S401
- Prefix: 'ics932s401'
- Addresses scanned: I2C 0x69
- Datasheet: Publically available at the IDT website
-
-Author: Darrick J. Wong
-
-Description
------------
-
-This driver implements support for the IDT ICS932S401 chip family.
-
-This chip has 4 clock outputs--a base clock for the CPU (which is likely
-multiplied to get the real CPU clock), a system clock, a PCI clock, a USB
-clock, and a reference clock. The driver reports selected and actual
-frequency. If spread spectrum mode is enabled, the driver also reports by what
-percent the clock signal is being spread, which should be between 0 and -0.5%.
-All frequencies are reported in KHz.
-
-The ICS932S401 monitors all inputs continuously. The driver will not read
-the registers more often than once every other second.
-
-Special Features
-----------------
-
-The clocks could be reprogrammed to increase system speed. I will not help you
-do this, as you risk damaging your system!

Subject: Doc: better explanation of procs_running
the description in Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt of the
procs_running entry in /proc/stat is confusing (according to that
description, it looks as if procs_running could only be a number
between 0 and the number of CPUs).
Changed it to a more accurate description in the patch attached.
