stable kernel snapshot 980719



Just uploaded a snapshot of stable tree to bring us to 2.0.35 and fix some
other stuff.

You can fetch by anonymous ftp at:

ftp://vger.rutgers.edu/pub/linux/Sparc/kernel/v2.0/980719/

sparclinux-2.0-980719.tar.gz        entire source tree
sparclinux-980625-980719.diff.gz    patch against 980625 snapshot
sparclinux-2.0.35-980719.diff.gz    patch against plain 2.0.35 source

vmlinux-980719.gz
modules-980719.tar.gz
System.map-980719.gz

vmlinuxSMP-980719.gz
modulesSMP-980719.tar.gz
System.mapSMP-980719.gz

What's new:

- merge to 2.0.35 
- dummy audio device supports reading what's being written to it by
  opening device for reading
- more system calls exported
- lousy, not correct, but good enough to boot Turbosparc patch


I think the problem where we keep ending up needing more system calls is 
because e.g. configure is checking unistd for various system calls, and
finding them even if we export them only for SunOS. I think the correct fix
for this would be to ifdef __KERNEL__ all of the SunOS-only ones, but I'm not
sure.
