David S. Miller 4f07118f65 [SPARC64]: More fully work around Spitfire Errata 51.
It appears that a memory barrier soon after a mispredicted
branch, not just in the delay slot, can cause the hang
condition of this cpu errata.

So move them out-of-line, and explicitly put them into
a "branch always, predict taken" delay slot which should
fully kill this problem.

David S. Miller 6593eaed81 [SPARC64]: Non-atomic bitops do not need volatile operations
Noticed this while comparing sparc64's bitops.h to ppc64's.
We can cast the volatile memory argument to be non-volatile.

While we're here, __inline__ --> inline.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
