Add -include linux/version.h to the cflags. Now code can have backward
compatibility test without including compat.h first.
Linux headers included from compat.h are removed, so that code will get
the same headers when compiling in v4l-dvb as it does in the kernel.
Many drivers have compat.h moved to the end of their include list, as
this lets compat.h do things it can't do at the beginning. Such as test
of something is defined to include compat code, or to put a wrapper
around a function without changing the function's name.

Main changes:
- There were several checks for usb release routines that were removed, since
the routine itself checks for null values:
usb_free_urb, usb_kill_urb, usb_unlink_urb
Should be checked if this really happens on older kernels.
- updated sound/oss/btaudio.c
- replaced SLAB_ATOMIC to GFP_ATOMIC

Kernel-sync:
This patch is required to allow compilation of the tree with kernel
2.6.19.
This is the original description of the original patch, signed by
David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>:
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

The correct mutex header to grab is linux/mutex.h, and while
asm/mutex.h seems to work for x86 architecture, it has been reported
not to work for amd64 architecture. So let's just do this right.

- Changed all occurances of "#ifdef notdef" to "#if 0"
- This code will remain visible in the v4l-dvb repositories,
but will be held back from git.
