This fixed the problem on the 3 platforms I've been able to test on.
I'm still of the oppinion that the BIOS should take care of this,
however some board makers only apply this when they spot a
SBLive! soundcard, but the problem exists even without a SBLive!.
This fix should probably go somewhere else, but for now I'll
keep it here since we havn't got a central place to put
such things.
problems currently experienced in -CURRENT.
This should fix the problem that the PS/2 mouse is detected
twice if the acpi module is not loaded on some systems.
refering to securelevels; also, update the unprivileged process text
to better indicate the scope of actions permittable when any system
flags are already set (limited).

sizeof(struct inode) into a new malloc bucket on the i386. This
didn't happen in -current due to the removal of i_lock, but it does
no harm to apply the workaround to -current first.
Reduce the size of the i_spare[] array in struct inode from 4 to
3 entries, and change ext2fs to use i_din.di_spare[1] so that it
does not need i_spare[3].

we're at least consistent with what tcsendbreak(3) is documented

I am not sure if this is absolutely necessary on all systems. Yet,
there certainly are motherboards and notebook systems which require
this, although there are other systems which just don't. I hope we
shall know when to do this on which systems, as the development of our
ACPI subsystem progresses... (I know we didn't need this for the APM
resume.)
all the debugging code into the function versions of the mutex operations
in kern_mutex.c. This reduced the __mtx_* macros to simply wrappers of
the _{get,rel}_lock_* macros, so the __mtx_* macros were also abolished in
favor of just calling the _{get,rel}_lock_* macros. The tangled hairy mass
of macros calling macros is at least a bit more sane now.
* Don't get confused when memory regions don't lie on page boundaries -
remember our page size is typically larger than the firmware's page size.
* Add a function ia64_running_in_simulator() which is intended to detect
whether the kernel is running in SKI or on real hardware.
ppc to go into EPP mode. These 8 inputs are timestamped in polled
loop so their resolution will be nanoseconds but their granularity
will only be 1/hz.
