Shea Levy a589bfae17 Update and fix kernel packages to new kernel build
In most cases, this just meant changing kernelDev (now removed from
linuxPackagesFor) to kernel.dev. Some packages needed more work (though
whether that was because of my changes or because they were already
broken, I'm not sure). Specifics:

* psmouse-alps builds on 3.4 but not 3.10, as noted in the comments that
  were already there
* blcr builds on 3.4 but not 3.10, as noted in comments that were
  already there
* open-iscsi, ati-drivers, wis-go7007, and openafsClient don't build on
  3.4 or 3.10 on this branch or on master, so they're marked broken
* A version-specific kernelHeaders package was added

The following packages were removed:

* atheros/madwifi is superceded by official ath*k modules
* aufs is no longer used by any of our kernels
* broadcom-sta v6 (which was already packaged) replaces broadcom-sta
* exmap has not been updated since 2011 and doesn't build
* iscis-target has not been updated since 2010 and doesn't build
* iwlwifi is part of mainline now and doesn't build
* nivida-x11-legacy-96 hasn't been updated since 2008 and doesn't build

Everything not specifically mentioned above builds successfully on 3.10.
I haven't yet tested on 3.4, but will before opening a pull request.

Shea Levy 4fa4ab3a6e Partially revert my recent kernelPackages changes
First, pass in `self' again so that overriding works properly (thanks
for pointing that out, @edolstra)

Second, instead of having linuxPackages*.kernel mean something different
inside the set and out, add a new attribute linuxPackages*.kernelDev,
which for the generic kernel is simply linuxPackages*.kernel but for the
manual-config kernel is the `dev' output (which has the build tree,
source tree, etc.)

The second change required trivial modifications in a bunch of
expressions, I verified that all of the linuxPackages* sets defined in
all-packages.nix have the same drv paths before and after the change.

Eelco Dolstra c556a6ea46 * "ensureDir" -> "mkdir -p". "ensureDir" is a rather pointless
function, so obsolete it.

Eelco Dolstra 0aea0db581 * Put all packages that depend on a specific kernel (notably kernel
modules) together in an attribute set returned by the function
  "kernelPackagesFor" that takes a kernel as argument.  For instance,
  kernelPackages_2_6_23 is the result of calling this function with
  kernel_2_6_23.

  This is necessary in NixOS to make it easier to override the kernel:
  it's not enough to just specify a different kernel (via the
  boot.kernel option), but you also need matching nvidiaDriver, aufs,
  iwlwifi, etc.  Having a single attribute set that contains all
  kernel-related packages makes this much easier.

* The kernel now has a passthru attribute "features" that allows NixOS
  expressions to test whether a kernel has certain features.  For
  instance, the externel "iwlwifi" kernel module package should only
  be built on kernels < 2.6.24, as kernels >= 2.6.24 have iwlwifi
  support integrated.  So the NixOS expressions can do the test
  "kernel.features ? iwlwifi" to see if the iwlwifi package should be
  built.

  Kernel patches can declare additional features.  E.g., the fbsplash
  patch adds a "fbSplash" feature.
