Type 0x103 ("TCL MFNM05-4") in the Hauppauge eeprom is a more recent tuner
that maps to TUNER_PHILIPS_FM1236_MK3. This had been previously defined but

This patch fixes graceful stop timeout handling in PPC4xx EMAC driver.
Currently, when we stop TX/RX channels we just do some number of loops
without relying on actual spent time. This has finally bitten me on
one of our systems (heavy network traffic during start up, RX channel
is stopped several times to configure multicast list).
Graceful channel stop can take up to 1 frame time, so I've added
device specific timeout counter which depends on current link speed
and calls to udelay() to really wait required amount of time before
giving up.

I've been able to (finally !) successfully suspend and resume various

Alan, please verify the UHCI bit I did, I only verified that it builds.
It's very simple so I wouldn't expect any issue there. If you aren't
confident, then just drop the hunks that change uhci-hcd.c
I also made the patch a little bit more "safer" by making sure the store
to the interrupt register that disables interrupts is not posted before
I set the flag and drop the spinlock.
Without this patch, you cannot reliably sleep/wakeup any recent Mac, and
I suspect PCs have some more sneaky issues too (they don't frankly crash
with machine checks because x86 tend to silently swallow PCI errors but
that won't last afaik, at least PCI Express will blow up in those
