Log Message:
Enable input beep feature in Intel HDA sound driver.
Fix VMI crash on boot introduced in 2.6.27.7 (F10#476062)

linux-2.6.27.7-vmi-fix-crash-on-boot.patch:

--- NEW FILE linux-2.6.27.7-vmi-fix-crash-on-boot.patch ---
VMI initialiation can relocate the fixmap, causing early_ioremap
to malfunction if it is initialized before the relocation.
To fix this, VMI activation is split into two phases; the detection,
which must happen before setting up ioremap, and the activation,
which must happen after parsing early boot parameters.

This fixes a crash on boot when VMI is enabled under VMware.
