[PNP]: Cleanup Kconfig

This patch cleans up the kconfig options for the pnp subsystem. It updates the comments and makes pnpbios proc support an optional feature.

[PNP]: Add additonal sysfs entries

This patch adds some aditional information to sysfs for pnp cards. It should be useful for userland tools.

[PNP]: Card matching code fix

This patch updates the matching code to ensure that all requested devices are present on the card, even if they are in use. It is necessary for some ALSA drivers to work properly because early vendors would have different sets of devices on the same card ids. It is from Takashi Iwai <[email protected]>.

[PNP] Move ID declarations

[PNP]: Avoid static requests

Recently many PnPBIOS bugs have been triggered by static resource information requests. This patch makes an effort to further avoid making them.

[PNP]: Disable resources fix

Some PnPBIOSes do not follow the specifications with regard to disabling devices. This patch preserves the tag bits, while zeroing the resource settings. Previously we would zero the entire buffer. It has been tested and appears to correct the issue while remaining compatible with unbroken PnPBIOSes.

[PNP]: Resource flags update

This patch reorganizes resource flags to ensure that manual resource settings are properly recognized. This fix is necessary for many ALSA drivers. It also prevents comparisons between unset resource structures. The bug was discovered by Rene Herman <[email protected]>, who also wrote an initial version of this patch. I made further improvements to ensure that the pnp subsystem was compatible with this initial change.

[PNP]: Fix Serial PnP driver

The serial driver currently fails to unregister its pnp driver upon module unload. This patch corrects the problem by calling pnp_unregister_driver and implementing a proper remove function.
