Subject: [patch] Eliminate generic.videoramm generic.videoram_size
To: submit@mamedev.org

Hi mamedev,
This set of patches removes generic.videoram and
generic.videoram_size. These generics have no core use, they are
simply there for the convenience of drivers. Now that drivers are
required to have devices, the data should move there.
The first patch sets the stage for the rest of the patch. It includes
several changes.
1. It replaces all the uses of generic.videoram_size with appropriate
constants.
2. It eliminates the write handlers from pc_video.c. These are
unused in MAME and MESS appears to have a private copy.
3. It splits some drivers:
a. It separates mcr68 from the mcr driver, mostly by dividing
machine/mcr.c.
b. It separates naughtyb from the phoenix driver by introducing an
audio/pleiads.h include.
c. It replaces video/system1.h with includes/system1.h.
4. It fixes some videoram related bugs.
a. balsente, mole didn't need videoram.
b. sbowling has a dangling reference to videoram from an earlier
driver_data conversion
5. It expands some namcona functions to multiple lines so that later
scripted-edits look sensible.
The second patch is generated by vram01_1.pl. It introduces videoram
local variables in function that use videoram read-only and removes
AM_SIZE_GENERIC(videoram).
The third patch is generated by vram01_2.pl. It replaces all
occurances of generic.videoram with state->videoram,
introducing/modifying driver_device classes as needed.
The fourth patch then actually removes the generics, and fixes one
issue the scripts didn't handle.

Not for whatsnew: This is not complete or well-tested yet, I'm checking in
early mostly so Kale can play with it while I'm at work today. It should at
least function better than current for most images.
for the common case where these are done outside the context of a read
or write handler (it was annoying to pass in the fake address space
for these cases).
Added DEVCB_DEVICE_MEMBER() macros which allow you to specify a
READ8_MEMBER or WRITE8_MEMBER in a device callback (via dynamically
generated trampolines).
Replaced all remaining calls to okim6295_r/okim6295_w with calls to
the new methods, and removed the static functions.
address map case so that updated devices can shed their old-style read/write
handlers in favor of member functions.
Bulk converted all okim6295_r/okim6295_w references in the address maps to
call to the modern member functions.
properly. Hooked the correct TMS9980 CPU, added a preliminary memory
map and some technical notes. [Roberto Fresca]
