The __deprecated marker is quite useful in highlighting the remnants of
old APIs that want removing.
However, it is quite normal for one or more years to pass, before the
(usually ancient, bitrotten) code in question is either updated or
deleted.
Thus, like __must_check, add a Kconfig option that permits the silencing
of this compiler warning.
This change mimics the ifdef-ery and Kconfig defaults of MUST_CHECK as
closely as possible.

This fixes some totally illogical and wrong code that converts things to
and from BCD mode essentially randomly, does math on values in BCD mode
etc etc. Introduce a few helper functions to make it a bit more obvious
what is going on, and make sure that we always do all the arithmetic
(and anythign else, for that matter) in binary, not BCD.
Tested by Mark Lord, who found the problem originally, and also pushed
the patch back and reminded me about it.

This patch (as1005) fixes a rather subtle problem. When
usb_set_configuration() registers the interfaces and their files in
sysfs, it doesn't expect those files to exist already. But when an
interface is registered, its driver may call usb_set_interface() and
thereby cause the sysfs files to be created. The result is an error
when usb_set_configuration() goes on to create those same files again.
The (not-so-great) solution is to have usb_set_configuration() remove
any existing files before creating them.

the NULL dereference is here:
(gdb) list *0xffffffff804a9504
0xffffffff804a9504 is in natsemi_poll (drivers/net/natsemi.c:717).
712 return count;
713 }
714
715 static inline void __iomem *ns_ioaddr(struct net_device *dev)
716 {
717 return (void __iomem *) dev->base_addr;
718 }
719
which is this code from natsemi.c:
2227 struct net_device *dev = np->dev;
2228 void __iomem * ioaddr = ns_ioaddr(dev);
2229 int work_done = 0;
seems like the NAPI changes in -rc1 added an np->dev field but forgot to
initialize it ...
does the patch below fix the oops for you?

added np->dev to drivers/net/natsemi.c's struct netdev_private, but
forgot to initialize that new field upon driver init. The result was
a predictable NULL dereference oops the first time the hardware
