This is the "Juju" FireWire stack, a new alternative implementation
designed for robustness and simplicity. You can build either this
- stack, or the classic stack (the ieee1394 driver, ohci1394 etc.)
- or both. Please read http://wiki.linux1394.org/JujuMigration before

To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the module will be
called firewire-core. It functionally replaces ieee1394, raw1394,
and video1394.
