Revert all this.  It can cause device-mapper to receive a different major from
earlier kernels and it turns out that the Amanda backup program (via GNU tar,
apparently) checks major numbers on files when performing incremental backups.

Which is a bit broken of Amanda (or tar), but this feature isn't important
enough to justify the churn.

A device can be removed from an md array via e.g.
  echo remove > /sys/block/md3/md/dev-sde/state

This will try to remove the 'dev-sde' subtree which will deadlock
since
  commit e7b0d26a86943370c04d6833c6edba2a72a6e240

With this patch we run the kobject_del via schedule_work so as to
avoid the deadlock.

* 'for-linus' of git://one.firstfloor.org/home/andi/git/linux-2.6:
  [PATCH] x86: Don't probe for DDC on VBE1.2
  [PATCH] x86-64: Increase NMI watchdog probing timeout
  [PATCH] x86-64: Let oprofile reserve MSR on all CPUs
  [PATCH] x86-64: Disable local APIC timer use on AMD systems with C1E

Fix the regression resulting from the recent change of suspend code
ordering that causes systems based on Intel x86 CPUs using the microcode
driver to hang during the resume.

The problem occurs since the microcode driver uses request_firmware() in
its CPU hotplug notifier, which is called after tasks has been frozen and
hangs.  It can be fixed by telling the microcode driver to use the
microcode stored in memory during the resume instead of trying to load it
from disk.
