Subject: x86: fix in/out_p delays
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>
Debugged by David P. Reed <dpreed@...d.com>.
Do not use port 0x80, it can cause crashes, see:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6307
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9511
instead of just removing _p postfixes en masse, lets just first
remove the 0x80 port usage, then remove any unnecessary _p io ops
gradually. It's more debuggable this way.
