[IA64] Update default configs
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
PNP and PNPACPI turned on

    i8042 recently changed from ACPI to PNP detection.  Without PNP, it
    probes legacy I/O ports for the keyboard controller, which causes an
    MCA on HP boxes.

    Also, I'm about to remove 8250_acpi.c, so we'll need PNP to detect
    non-PCI serial ports.  Until 8250_acpi.c is removed, some systems
    will see serial ports reported twice (once from 8250_acpi.c and again
    from 8250_pnp.c).  This is harmless.

    PNPACPI is still marked EXPERIMENTAL, but I'm not aware of any
    outstanding issues on ia64.

IDE_GENERIC turned off (except for SGI simulator, all ia64 IDE is PCI)

    ide-generic probes compiled-in legacy I/O ports for IDE devices, which
    again causes an MCA.  It would be nicer to just get rid of all the
    legacy junk from include/asm-ia64/ide.h, but that is a bit riskier
    because it could break ide-cs and the HDIO_REGISTER_HWIF ioctl
    (http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0508.2/0049.html).

Here's the essence of the patch:

    -# CONFIG_PNP is not set
    +CONFIG_PNP=y
    +CONFIG_PNPACPI=y

    -CONFIG_IDE_GENERIC=y
    +# CONFIG_IDE_GENERIC is not set

Tested on tiger, bigsur, and zx1.
