Subject: [PATCH] ieee1394: eth1394: don't autoload by hotplug when ohci1394
 starts

Until now, ieee1394 put an IP-over-1394 capability entry into each new
host's config ROM.  As soon as the controller was initialized --- i.e.
right after modprobe ohci1394 --- this entry triggered a hotplug event
which typically caused auto-loading of eth1394.

This irritated or annoyed many users and distributors.  Of course they
could blacklist eth1394, but then ieee1394 wrongly advertized IP-over-
1394 capability to the FireWire bus.

Therefore
  - remove the offending kernel config option
    IEEE1394_CONFIG_ROM_IP1394,
  - let eth193 add the ROM entry by itself, i.e. only after eth1394 was
    loaded,
  - add a new kernel config option which brings back the old behavior
    for those who liked it.  We don't re-use the old config option
    because then nobody would notice that there is a choice now.  This
    new option is scheduled to be removed soon.

This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7793 .

Autoloading of eth1394 when an _external_ IP-over-1394 capable device is
discovered is _not_ affected by this patch.

Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@...6.in-berlin.de>

Instead of keeping this until the proposed date of removal (June 2007),
should I kill CONFIG_IEEE1394_AUTOLOAD_ETH1394 right away?

+	  This lets the ieee1394 base driver include an IP-over-1394 in the
