Various patches to fix bugs in imote2 and im2sb modules

[GoogleCodeExporter]

While doing development for imote2 using the TinyOS, I stumbled over some bugs 
in the current code for imote2 as well as for the sensors on im2sb
Please find the following patches attached:

- first one enables the LPL interface for ActiveMessage

- second one corrects I2C address for digital temperature sensor, restores 
leading bits of accel data (so the 2-complement values can be decoded 
again),fixes several atomic compiler warnings, fixes a fan-out problem when 
using multiple SPI-Interfaces

- third one fixes high-level DMA module not working due to wrong initialization 
and corrects a typo in that module as well (I must admit, that patch needs some 
cleaning though)

Is there an infrastructure where I can add the patches to the code (gerrit 
etc.)?

The LPL (first patch) has been already fixed. I can commit the other two 
patches for you, but cannot verify it. Anyone using imote2's?

First of all, thanks for taking a look at the patches!

However, I can't see the changes from the first patch in the current trunk. Can 
you point me to the commit where this was fixed?

I really hope the bugs do get fixed, some of them make the hardware quite 
unusable. On the other hand, not many people are using it anymore...or so it 
seems.

Sorry, you're right...the first issue was fixed on github.

Can I (Should I) port the other issues over to github? Or maybe create pull 
requests there?
