1.7.5.1

Hi Prarit

I could use some background on why the mod_devicetable.h include is being removed from basic_mmio_gpio (need a commit description). Also, any reason why this change isn't squashed in the patch that necessitates it?

Grant, this was part of a cleanup of the dmi* code. Currently DMI* (which have now been changed to SYSFW*) definitions are in mod_devicetable.h. AFAICT, mod_devicetable.h is not needed in the gpio file.

Purely organization of the patchset -- the SYSFW & SMBIOS code touches close to 180 different files. I decided that a directory-by-directory breakout of the drivers/* patches was the best way to go.
