[parisc-linux] HIL status

I've taken the hp300 HIL driver written by Phil Blundell and it `works'
on my 715/33.  It's producing the wrong keycodes, it's doing work that an
ASP driver ought to be doing and it's producing a fair bit of extraneous
crap on the screen.  But I'm getting interrupts and keycodes so I'm
happy for tonight :-)

The next obvious step is to have an ASP manager, like LASI.  In fact, so
much like LASI, it probably ought to be in the same driver.  This seems to
be how Mach does it, and there's a rumour this is also how HPUX does it.
My question is: how?  Mach hardcodes the address of ASP to 0xf0800000,
but there's nothing even close in the driver list.  I notice in the
bootlogs which have previously been posted, LASI was at the address of
`Core BA', but you can see that's wildly different on this machine.
Should I invent my own and insert it into the structures we have?

Here's the driver list printed at boot on the 715 (is someone collecting
these somewhere?)

  Actually, the last one failed on some machines, I need sort out what
  happened. Then I'll put up a revised version that you may try (and others).
  From now on I'll be distributing them on the FTP site so people can 
  pick them up more easily.
