Added driver data struct and save states to: cbasebal.c, chinsan.c, mitchell.c and quasar.c
Not to be mentioned: I also removed use of memory_set_bankptr from CPS1 sound banking and renamed a couple of rallyx.c constants to be less generic
Out of whatsnew: Unfortunately, I was unable to make both malzak and p2000t (in MESS) to work without a small kludge, clearly documented in the source. I plan to further investigating the problem once I manage to merge the other 505x variants (later)
* added driver data struct to neogeo.c and added GAME_SUPPORTS_SAVE flag to all sets, because save state support was already there
* added driver data struct and save state support to cps1.c, cps2.c and fcrash.c
* added saves to 6522via.c. this fixes problems of gameplan.c and trvquest.c games with -autosave
* added driver data struct and save states to toratora.c and sf.c
* enable GAME_SUPPORTS_SAVE flag to dday.c because some of the core changes have fixed the sound problem at loading
* added a couple of comments about header inclusions
@Aaron: now I think there is only a single occurrence of input_port_by_index in the whole source (in src/emu/sound/disc_inp.c), in case you want to remove the whole handler
Also, added driver data struct and save states to laserbas.c, laserbat.c, lastfght.c, lazercmd.c and lemmings.c
Finally, added driver data struct to lasso.c
* Fixed EIP displacement when executing FPU instructions with no 80387 present
* Added 32-bit implementations of SLDT and STR

Subject: More i386 fixes
To: submit@mamedev.org
Hi,
Here's two more small fixes for the i386 core.
First, is FPU instructions used on 80386. On a system without a
80387, FPU instructions should have no effect. Part of the FM Towns
TBIOS (runs as an MS-DOS device driver, providing extra system
functions) initialises the FPU, and tries to detect it. Upon hitting
the FSTCW instruction, though, it doesn't increase EIP enough when an
extra displacement byte is needed. So, I've added a call to GetEA to
the escape() function (called when there is no FPU) which will fetch
the extra byte if necessary.
Second, is a 32-bit implementation of the SLDT and STR instructions.
Basically, I copied it from the 16-bit versions, and modified it to
use 32-bit registers.
Thanks,
Barry Rodewald

part. Some shared systems still exist with globals, but this
tackles the atarigen module and the variables local to each
driver.
Also added validity check that AM_BASE_MEMBER and AM_SIZE_MEMBER
items point within the bounds of the driver_data structure.
Added driver data struct to jackal.c
out of the whatsnew, a couple of remarks:
- rallyx and nrallyx might require a separate driver data struct to deal with namco_soundregs, but I'll take care of this eventually (if really needed)
- jackal does not properly save the work ram banks atm, hence no SUPPORTS_SAVE flag, but I keep looking for a clean solution to the problem
Added driver data struct to pipedrm.c and added devices to gameplan.c driver data struct (to remove a few cputag calls)
Also, removed a couple of memory_set_bankptr that I had forgotten (buggychl.c & homedata.c)

Hi mamedev,
This patch improves the quality of the mame driver headers, by adding
missing prototypes and source comments, removing dead prototypes, and
marking some non-exported functions as static within the drivers. It
also eliminates about a dozen cases of #include "deprecat.h".
