Impact: avoid spurious ksoftirqd wakeups
The tick idle check which is called from irq_enter() was run before
the call to __irq_enter() which did not set the in_interrupt() bits in
preempt_count. That way the raise of a softirq woke up softirqd for
nothing as the softirq was handled on return from interrupt.
Call __irq_enter() before calling into the tick idle check code.

While investigating the failure of hibernation on 32-bit x86 with
CONFIG_NUMA set, as described in this message
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=122634118116226&w=4
I asked some people for help and I was told that it wasn't really
worth the effort, because CONFIG_NUMA was generally broken on 32-bit
x86 systems and it shouldn't be used in such configs. For this
reason, make CONFIG_NUMA depend on BROKEN instead of EXPERIMENTAL on
x86-32.

Commit d0fc2eaaf4 "powerpc/fsl: Refactor
device bindings" split out a number of device bindings from
booting-without-of.txt into separate files. Having them all in one file
was a frequent source of merge conflicts.
However, in the next merge, 49997d7515, there
was another conflict. Some of the bindings removed from
booting-without-of.txt were mistakenly added back in and the copies in
dts-bindings were kept as well.
This patch re-removes "Freescale Display Interface" and "Freescale on board
FPGA" and fixes the table of contents.

There are certain scenerios where we require intersecting
two regulatory domains. This adds intersection support.
When we enable 802.11d support we will use this to intersect
the regulatory domain from the AP's country IE and what our
regulatory agent believes is correct for a country.
This patch enables intersection for now in the case where
the last regdomain was set by a country IE which was parsed
and the user then wants to set the regulatory domain. Since
we don't support country IE parsing yet this code path will not
be hit, however this allows us to pave the way for 11d support.
Intersection code has been tested in userspace with CRDA.

This introduces a debugfs file (ieee80211/phy#/hwsim/ps) that can be
used to force a simulated radio into power save mode. Following values
can be written into this file to change PS mode:
0 = power save disabled (constantly awake)
1 = power save enabled (drop all frames; do not send PS-Poll)
2 = power save enabled (send PS-Poll frames automatically to receive
buffered unicast frames); not yet fully implemented
3 = manual PS-Poll trigger (send a single PS-Poll frame)
Two different behavior for power save mode processing can be tested:
- move between modes 1 and 0 (i.e., receive all buffered frames at a
time)
- move to mode 1 and use manual PS-Poll frames (write 3 to the 'ps'
debugfs file) to fetch power save buffered frames one at a time
Mode 2 (automatic PS-Poll) does not yet parse Beacon frames, but
eventually, it should take a look at TIM IE and send PS-Poll if a
traffic bit is set for our AID.

With the addition of basic rate set and TX queue parameter
configuration and confirmation that power save buffering is
working again, mac80211 is now in state that allows AP mode to be
used without major problems. Consequently, it is time to allow this
mode to be enabled without having to patch the kernel.
AP mode requires hostapd for management frame processing and as such,
configuring this mode is only allowed through cfg80211 (not with
iwconfig and WEXT).

mac80211 supports multiple virtual interfaces for a single device. For
example, a managed interface (wlan0) and a monitor interface (mon0) can
exist at the same time. Thus priv->iw_mode is not sufficient to track
the wireless mode any more. The patch redefines priv->iw_mode as the
first interface mode (the same as priv->vif->type if priv->vif != NULL).
If another monitor type interface is created later, we don't change
priv->iw_mode into monitor. This way, the original interface still
works. The patch also requests mac80211 to do reassociation after we
change the Rx filter flags.
