3684a601e4 ipwireless: fix compile failure
There's a brown paper bag compile failure introduced by this patch

    ipwireless: Preallocate received packet buffers with MRU size

Really, it can't ever have been even compile tested.  It looks like the
closing bracket is in the wrong place, so this is the fix.

a013869248 ipwireless: Preallocate received packet buffers with MRU size
ipwireless: Preallocate received packet buffers with MRU size

Packets are assembled from link size (~300 bytes) up to PPP MRU
(1500 by default). Try to preallocate full size rather than
repeatedly advance buffer size by 256 bytes.

bee9c7c077 ipwireless: Increase PPP outgoing queue size
ipwireless: Increase PPP outgoing queue size

Increase default size of PPP outgoing queue. Currently set to 1, which
means that a packet quickly following another pushed by PPP must wait
until hardware actually sends the previous and PPP has to be waken up
by ppp_wakeup(). This slows down upstream.

Now PPP can push more packets at once which get buffered inside driver
and pushed immediatelly to hardware when previous packet is out.

Experiments show that size = 10 is quite good for all connection types
(GPRS/EDGE/UMTS) and gains 4 KB/sec of upload for UMTS for batch uploads.
Need for higher queue size than 10 occures in only < 0.1 % of cases.

ipwireless: Do not return value from sending funcs

Do not return value from do_send_fragment and do_send_packet, it's not used.
The packet size checks are not useful too:

* zero length packet will never be sent, caller always passes packet_header
  size which is either 1 or 3
* MTU check is done in caller, no need to repeat

ec288bd37e tpm: increase size of internal TPM response buffers
This patch increases size of driver internal response buffers.  Some TPM
responses defined in TCG TPM Specification Version 1.2 Revision 103 have
increased size and do not fit previously defined buffers.  Some TPM
responses do not have fixed size, so bigger response buffers have to be
allocated.  200B buffers should be enough.

the backend does not use irqs. This allows virtio_console to use hvc_console
without having a linker reference to request_irq/free_irq.

In addition, together with patch 2/3 it improves the performance for virtio
console input. (an earlier version of this patch was tested by Yajin on lguest)

The irq specific code is moved to hvc_irq.c and selected by the drivers that
use irqs (System p, System i, XEN).

I replaced "int irq" with the opaque "int data". The request_irq and
free_irq calls are replaced with notifier_add and notifier_del. I have also
changed the code a bit to call the notifier_add and notifier_del inside the
spinlock area as the callbacks are found via hp->ops.

Changes since last version:
o remove ifdef
o reintroduce "irq_requested" as "notified"
o cleanups, sparse..

I did not move the timer based polling into a separate polling scheme. I
played with several variants, but it seems we need to sleep/schedule in
a thread even for irq based consoles, as there are throttleing and buffer
size constraints.

I also kept hvc_struct defined in hvc_console.h so that hvc_irq.c can access
the irq_requested element.

Feedback is appreciated. virtio_console is currently the only available console
for kvm on s390. I plan to push this change as soon as all affected parties
agree on it. I would love to get test results from System p, Xen etc.
