Subject: [PATCH 1/3] x86: fix init_8259A() to not use outb_pic
Content-Disposition: inline; filename=fix-8259-iodelay.patch

fix init_8259A() which initializes the 8259 PIC to not use outb_pic,
which is a renamed version of outb_p, and delete outb_pic define.
There is already code in the .c files that does accesses to CMD & IMR registers
in successive outb() calls without _p.  Thus the outb_p is obviously not
needed, if it ever was.  Research into chipset documentation and old BIOS
listings shows that IODELAY was not used even in early machines.  Thus
the delay between i/o port writes was deleted for the 8259.

Again, the primary reason for fixing this is to use proper delay strategy,
and in particular to fix crashes that can result from using port 80 writes
on machines that have resources on port 80, such as the ENE chips used by Quanta
in latops it designs and sells to, e.g. HP.
