Nov 21st, 2006
==============

Author : Albert Ke <ake at marvell dot com>

Change :     1. Added 'make' target for non-raid open source code to patch a 
	 kernel tree.

	     2. Include config.h only when AUTOCONF_INCLUDED is not defined.
	 ( as #include <config.h> is phasing out of kernel ).

	     3. Place TSC-dependent code under CONFIG_X86 flags to prevent
 	 compilation on non-x86 platforms.

	     4. Successfully cross-compiled the driver for mips(32).
	
	     5. Patch Kconfig diff using customized script.
