This patch includes:
- more of the function calls needed/requested for the licence manager folks.
- change config option for lparcfg back to tristate
- exported those pesky symbols needed via lparcfg as a module.   (with
kallsyms exporting all symbols, this issue might be masked depending
upon your kernel config)
- change H_SET_PURR to H_PURR

i realise i've also got some whitespace in the patch, i'll clean those
out before i push anything up to ames.
