VIDIOC_G_ENC_INDEX support see the light of day.
Some notes:
1. With default capture parameters, the CX23418 seems to transfer 192 index
entries (4.5 kB worth) at 10 second intervals.
2. Index streams don't seem to be supported for MPEG 2 TS streams
3. The index entries seem to claim every frame is a B-Frame. Possible
firmware bug.
4. The cx18 driver does not try to capture an index stream when inserting
sliced VBI into the MPEg stream as the offsets would need fixup.

This change starts the IDX stream along with the MPG stream as an internal
use (only) stream much like the VBI stream can be started as an internal use
stream for inserting sliced VBI packets.
The IDX stream is not started automatically with an MPEG strem if the IDX
stream is disabled (no buffers allocated) or if sliced VBI insertion is being
performed by the cx18 driver. The cx18 driver doing sliced VBI insertion
makes the offsets in the IDX stream inaccurate for the final MPEG stream
presented to user space. Since fixing the IDX offsets ourselves is not easy
and we cannot easily do what ivtv does to fix the offsets, we'll make sliced
VBI insertion and MPEG Index capture mutually exclusive for now.

Update the module options related to INDEX stream buffer allocation. A single
CX2341[5678] index entry is only 24 bytes. Large buffers for the IDX stream
will prevent the CX23418 from transferring index data over at all. Buffers

63 buffers/MDLs as that is the firmware limit per stream and IDX stream buffers

net: bug fix for vlan + gro issue
Traffic (tcp) doesnot start on a vlan interface when gro is enabled.
Even the tcp handshake was not taking place.
This is because, the eth_type_trans call before the netif_receive_skb
in napi_gro_finish() resets the skb->dev to napi->dev from the previously
set vlan netdev interface. This causes the ip_route_input to drop the
incoming packet considering it as a packet coming from a martian source.
I could repro this on 2.6.32.7 (stable) and 2.6.33-rc7.
With this fix, the traffic starts and the test runs fine on both vlan
and non-vlan interfaces.

netif_wake_queue() here is wrong. This might cause calling of
start_xmit routine on txfull state and trigger BUG_ON.
This bug does not happen when NAPI disabled. After txdone there
must be at least one free tx slot. But with NAPI, this is not
true anymore and the BUG_ON can hits on heavy load.

HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK requires defining the user_regset interfaces,
including task_user_regset_view(). parisc doesn't do that yet,
so don't lie about it.

ACPI: Be in TS_POLLING state during mwait based C-state entry
ACPI deep C-state entry had a long standing bug/missing feature, wherein we were sending
resched IPIs when an idle CPU is in mwait based deep C-state. Only mwait based C1 was using
the write to the monitored address to wake up mwait'ing CPU.
This patch changes the code to retain TS_POLLING bit if we are entering an mwait based
deep C-state.
The patch has been verified to reduce the number of resched IPIs in general and also
improves the performance/power on workloads with low system utilization (i.e., when mwait based
deep C-states are being used).
Fixes "netperf ~50% regression with 2.6.33-rc1, bisect to 1b9508f"
