Andi Kleen f083a329e6 [PATCH] x86_64: Clean up and tweak ACPI blacklist year code
- Move the core parser into dmi_scan.c.  It can be useful for other
   subsystems too.
 - Differentiate between field doesn't exist and field is 0 or
   unparseable.  The first case is likely an old BIOS with broken ACPI,
   the later is likely a slightly buggy BIOS where someone forget to
   edit the date.  Don't blacklist in the later case.

Andi Kleen e992867445 [PATCH] x86_64: Generalize DMI and enable for x86-64
Some people need it now on 64bit so reuse the i386 code for
x86-64. This will be also useful for future bug workarounds.

It is a bit simplified there because there is no need
to do it very early on x86-64. This means it doesn't need
early ioremap et.al. We run it as a core initcall right now.

I hope it's not needed for early setup.

I added a general CONFIG_DMI symbol in case IA64 or someone
else wants to reuse the code later too.

Brian Gerst 0d078f6f96 [PATCH] CONFIG_IA32
Add CONFIG_X86_32 for i386.  This allows selecting options that only apply
to 32-bit systems.

(X86 && !X86_64) becomes X86_32
(X86 ||  X86_64) becomes X86

Andrey Panin ebad6a4230 [PATCH] dmi: add onboard devices discovery
This patch adds onboard devices and IPMI BMC discovery into DMI scan code.
Drivers can use dmi_find_device() function to search for devices by type and
name.

Dmitry Torokhov e70c9d5e61 [PATCH] I8K: use standard DMI interface
I8K: Change to use stock dmi infrastructure instead of homegrown
     parsing code. The driver now requires box's DMI data to match
     list of supported models so driver can be safely compiled-in
     by default without fear of it poking into random SMM BIOS
     code. DMI checks can be ignored with i8k.ignore_dmi option.

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!
