Pull firewire updates from Takashi Sakamoto:
- Guarantee asynchronous packet and transaction callbacks in process
context
Both the 1394 OHCI driver and the core transaction layer have been
changed to guarantee that asynchronous packet and transaction
callbacks are invoked in process context. In v6.17, the execution
context depended on the transaction destination: callbacks for
transactions destined for remote nodes were invoked from a workqueue,
whereas callbacks for transactions destined for the local node or
terminated due to internal errors were invoked in the transaction
initiator's context.
All such callbacks are now guaranteed to execute in process context,
eliminating the need to account for different execution contexts when
implementing callback functions.

powerpc/irq: Fix build with CONFIG_PROC_FS=n
Commit fbb22ceaaf8f ("powerpc/irq: Make irqstats array based") made
arch_show_interrupts() call irq_proc_emit_counts(). That function lives
in kernel/irq/proc.c, which is only built with CONFIG_PROC_FS, so
kernels without procfs no longer link:
powerpc64-linux-ld: arch/powerpc/kernel/irq.o: in function `arch_show_interrupts':
arch/powerpc/kernel/irq.c:134:(.text+0x4b8c): undefined reference to `irq_proc_emit_counts'
arch_show_interrupts() is only called from irq_seq_show(), which is in
kernel/irq/proc.c as well, so build it only with CONFIG_PROC_FS, as x86
already does.
