* cpu/i8x41 should be renamed to UPI-4x, since UPI-41/42 was an intel chip family
postponed for now until core moved to pointers.
* removed I8041 definition from mcs48
* removed I8x41 cpu definition and config struct
* added I8041, I8741, I8042, I8242 and I8742 cpus to i8x41.c
* added internal memory maps
* internal ram now uses DATA memory space
* updated drivers
* increased interleave to 70 in decocass. This fixes decocass hanging in countdown around 13
No idea when this bug was introduced.

Subject: [patch] More header files for mame
Hi mamedev,
Here's another set of about 20 new include files for MAME. As before,
the only issues discovered by the migration were some dead prototypes.

Subject: [patch] New include files for drivers
Hi mamedev,
Here's a patch that adjusts a few existing include files, but
principally adds new include files for about twenty existing drivers.
This found a few dead prototypes, but otherwise didn't reveal any
errors.

Subject: [patch] Add ADDRESS_MAP_NAME macro
Hi mamedev,
In theory, MAME's interface macros should completely hide the naming
conventions from the drivers and sound/cpu cores. So as an
experiment, I renamed all the core apis and looked to see what broke.
The most common api coupling was with address maps in the CPU cores,
which this patch addresses by introducing a new macro,
ADDRESS_MAP_NAME (mimicing what is done in devintrf.h). There were a
handful of related problems in some drivers which this patch also
fixes. Some remaining issues I left alone (laserdisk apis reference
rom, video_update, machine_config, ksys573 use of nvram_handler,
megadriv use of ipt), in principle all the apis need _NAME variants to
encode the conventions.

Subject: psycho nics oscar revision change
I changed Psicho Nics Oscar (japan revision 0) to (world revision 0)
since there is no japan disclaimer
please find herewith attached a new game dumped from Russia.
The PCB has been lent by "Soviet Arcade Games Museum" www.15kop.ru
Dump and diff by "Antro" (my Italian friend living in Moskow)
Snezhnaja Koroleva [Antro]
* Added proper clock speed to plygonet.c and internal divider to dsp56k.c
* Fixed up disassembler add/sub, 05xx, and bsr ops.
* Handle mysterious uuuuF instruction found in plygonet add op.
* Partially implemented add, sub, mac, mpy, inc, cmpm, macr, asr16, jscc, lea, and movec ops.
* Added dual X memory read and data move with short displacement parallel moves.
* Merged DS5002FP
* Disassembler now uses type specific memory names
* Merged DS5002FP disasm
* added 83C751 memory names to disassembler
* delete DS5002FP specific files
* removed unnecessary cpu callback in wrally
* DATA_MAP ==> IO_MAP in wrally
* Fixed bitmap zooming in Virtual Mahjong 2 - My Fair Lady;
* Worked around a major graphic bug in ElanDoree;
* Added some missing alpha blending effects,Pro Mahjong Kiwame S title screen needs it but it doesn't work yet due to other problems (still investigating)
* Fixed a crash bug with Astra Super Stars when the debugger is active.
(this is to sync with svn tree,ST-V will be further improved on a later stage)
working on something, hold off syncing.
Defined macros for core CPU functions: CPU_INIT, CPU_RESET, CPU_EXIT,
CPU_EXECUTE, along with macros for the name and for calling, in the
spirit of the devintrf.h macros. More will come later.
Changed init, reset, exit, and execute interfaces to be passed a
const device_config * object. This is a fake object for the moment,
but encapsulates the machine pointer and token. Eventually this will
be a real device.
Changed the CPU IRQ callbacks to a proper type, and added a device
parameter to them.
Updated all CPU cores to the new macros and parameters.
Note that this changes the way we "pointer"-ify cores. I'll send an
update shortly.
Began the process of pruning options from the 68000 core, hard-coding it
for MAME's needs. We've hacked on it sufficiently that it is no longer
generic, so this is a good opportunity to simplify the code so that it
can actually be followed.
means of setting the minimum useful scheduling quantum, and clamping
all quanta to that value.
Changed interleave/boost handling to use scheduling quanta instead
of timers.
Added machine parameter to cpu_boost_interleave.
Updated cpuexec to compute the "perfect" interleave value taking into
account the minimum number of cycles per instruction specified by the
CPU core. Updated Z80 core to indicate that the minimum cpi is 2. Fixed
incorrect minimum cpi in the 68020+ cores.
Simplified a bit of logic in cpuexec_timeslice.
