Constify variables where possible.
Initialize programmer-related variables explicitly in programmer_init to
allow running programmer_init from a clean state after
programmer_shutdown.
Prohibit registering programmer shutdown functions before init or after
shutdown.
Kill some dead code.
Rename global variables with namespace-polluting names.
Use a previously unused locking helper function in sst49lfxxxc.c.

This is needed for libflashrom.

Effects on the binary size of flashrom are minimal (300 bytes
shrinkage), but the data section shrinks by 4384 bytes, and that's a
good thing if flashrom is operating in constrained envionments.

Unistd.h was only used to get a definition of NULL in all files. Add our
own NULL #define and remove unistd.h from flash.h
stdio.h has no place in flash.h, it should be included only in files
which really need it.
Add #include statements in individual .c files where needed.

Replace a few printf with msg_* to eliminate the need for stdio.h.

- x86/x86_64 (little endian)
- PowerPC (big endian)
- MIPS (big+little endian)

No changes to programmer specific code. This means any drivers with MMIO
access will _not_ suddenly start working on big endian systems, but with
this patch everything is in place to fix them.

Compilation should work on all architectures listed above for all
drivers except nic3com and nicrealtek which require PCI Port IO which is
x86-only for now.

To compile without nic3com and nicrealtek, run
make distclean
make CONFIG_NIC3COM=no CONFIG_NICREALTEK=no

Thanks to Misha Manulis for testing early versions of this patch on
PowerPC (big endian) with the satasii programmer.
Thanks to Segher Boessenkool for design review and for helping out with
compiler tricks and pointing out that we need eieio on PowerPC.
Thanks to Vladimir Serbinenko for compile testing on MIPS (little
endian) and PowerPC (big endian) and for runtime testing on MIPS (little
endian).
Thanks to David Daney for compile testing on MIPS (big endian).
Thanks to Uwe Hermann for compile and runtime testing on x86_64.

DO NOT RUN flashrom ON NON-X86 AFTER APPLYING THIS PATCH!
This patch only provides the infrastructure, but does not convert any
drivers, so flashrom will compile, but it won't do the right thing on
non-x86 platforms.

Msr_t memory layout may depend on compiler; with optimizations this may
lead to writing incorrect data to MSR. Create a temporary buffer with
correct layout to avoid this problem.

Now the DS selector limit is set to 4GB and all mmio accesses goes
through DS, the 1:1 mapping is fixed so the _DS base is taken onto
account. Plus is that the hwaccess.c needs no change and memcpy etc can
be used on mmaped space.

This should take care of picky Linux kernels which do not allow uncached
mappings to cached areas. Handle mapping failure gracefully (no forced
exit()) if the caller specifies it.

Such cached areas which can handle mapping failure are DMI tables and
coreboot tables. On failure we just ignore those tables. That is not
perfect, but a lot better than aborting flashrom due to an error in
nonessential functionality.

This should fix flashrom on a sizable number of machines where it
currently aborts early.

Yes, I could have exploited a Linux kernel bug to "solve" this, but
relying on such bugs is not exactly the best idea.

 - Document new 'satasii' programmer in -L output and manpage.

 - Drop PCI_IO_BASE_ADDRESS, pci.h has such #defines already.

 - Beautify flashrom output and make it more consistent.
 
 - Same for the 'make' output (reordered some $CC parameters).
   Build-tested on i386, shouldn't break any builds, I think.

 - Some variable renaming and other cosmetic fixes.

Flash mapping/unmapping was performed without an abstraction layer,
so even the dummy flasher caused memory mappings to be set up. Add
map/unmap functions to the external flasher abstraction.

Fix a possible scribble-over-low-memory corner case which fortunately
never triggered so far.

With this patch, --programmer dummy works fine as non-root.
