ieee1394: support for slow links or slow 1394b phy ports
Add support for the following types of hardware: + nodes that have a link speed < PHY speed + 1394b PHYs that are less than S800 capable + 1394b/1394a adapter cable between two 1394b PHYs Also, S1600 and S3200 are now supported if IEEE1394_SPEED_MAX is raised. A probing function is added to nodemgr's config ROM fetching routine which adjusts the allowable speed if an access problem was encountered. Pros and Cons of the approach: + minimum code footprint to support this less widely used hardware + nearly no overhead for unaffected hardware - ineffective before nodemgr began to read the ROM of affected nodes - ineffective if ieee1394 is loaded with disable_nodemgr=1 The speed map CSRs which are published to the bus are not touched by the patch.
