There is a race between shutdown and creation of devices: fw-core may
attempt to add a device with the same name of an already existing
device. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9828
Impact of the bug: Happens rarely (when shutdown of a device coincides
with creation of another), forces the user to unplug and replug the new
device to get it working.
The fix is obvious: Free the minor number *after* instead of *before*
device_unregister(). This requires to take an additional reference of
the fw_device as long as the IDR tree points to it.
And while we are at it, we fix an additional race condition:
fw_device_op_open() took its reference of the fw_device a little bit too
late, hence was in danger to access an already invalid fw_device.

fw_device.node_id and fw_device.generation are accessed without mutexes.
We have to ensure that all readers will get to see node_id updates
before generation updates.

Use a speed probe to determine the speed over 1394b buses and of nodes
which report a link speed less than their PHY speed.
Log the effective maximum speed of newly created nodes in dmesg.
Also, read the config ROM (except bus info block) at the maximum speed
rather than S100. This isn't a real optimization though because we
still only use quadlet read requests for the entire ROM.
The patch also adds support for S1600 and S3200, although such hardware
does not exist yet.

The attribute /sys/bus/scsi/devices/*:*:*:*/ieee1394_id, as generated by
the old sbp2 driver, is typically used to create persistently named
links in /dev/disk/by-id.

We dynamically create an attribute group for the key present on the
device in hand and point device->group to it. This way the device
core adds the sysfs attributes for us as the device is added.

Drop the event list semaphore and only use the wait queue and the list
to synchronize queue access. Break out of a poll or read whenever
the device is disconnected.

The old mechanism kept a struct cdev for each fw device, but fops->release
would reference this struct after the device got freed in some cases.

Instances of struct file_operations and struct fw_card_driver can be
qualified as "const". Ditto with struct fw_descriptor.data, struct
fw_device_id, and predefined instances of struct fw_address_region,
at least in the current implementation.
Data qualified as const is placed into the .rodata section which won't
be mixed with dirty data.
