Randy Dunlap e19360f294 [PATCH] net drivers: fix section attributes for gcc
If CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n, gcc doesn't like some __initdata to be const (rodata)
and other __initdata not const, so make the non-const __initdata const.

gcc errors:
drivers/net/bnx2.c:66: error: version causes a section type conflict
drivers/net/starfire.c:338: error: version causes a section type conflict
drivers/net/typhoon.c:137: error: version causes a section type conflict
drivers/net/natsemi.c:241: error: version causes a section type conflict

Eric Sesterhenn 5d9428de1a BUG_ON() Conversion in drivers/net/
this changes if() BUG(); constructs to BUG_ON() which is
cleaner, contains unlikely() and can better optimized away.

Olaf Hering 733482e445 [PATCH] changing CONFIG_LOCALVERSION rebuilds too much, for no good reason
This patch removes almost all inclusions of linux/version.h.  The 3
#defines are unused in most of the touched files.

A few drivers use the simple KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) macro, which is
unfortunatly in linux/version.h.

There are also lots of #ifdef for long obsolete kernels, this was not
touched.  In a few places, the linux/version.h include was move to where
the LINUX_VERSION_CODE was used.

quilt vi `find * -type f -name "*.[ch]"|xargs grep -El '(UTS_RELEASE|LINUX_VERSION_CODE|KERNEL_VERSION|linux/version.h)'|grep -Ev '(/(boot|coda|drm)/|~$)'`

search pattern:
/UTS_RELEASE\|LINUX_VERSION_CODE\|KERNEL_VERSION\|linux\/\(utsname\|version\).h

Ion Badulescu 67974231d4 [netdrvr starfire] fix highmem and broken firmware issues
Unfortunately, [your patch] might address the crash but doesn't address
the real problem. It turns out that the problem is one of padding
(the firmware cksum engine works only on 32-bit chunks, yuck), so
the special casing for length == 1 wasn't sufficient anyway.

This patch addresses the issue, as well the other issue of i386 +
CONFIG_HIGHMEM being broken. It is pretty much the same workaround
that Adaptec themselves used in their Windows driver. I have yet to
check if it fixes the problem when the skb is non-linear, but this
patch _will_ solve the problem for 99% of the users out there (those
not using sendfile).

David S. Miller 689be43945 [NET]: Remove gratuitous use of skb->tail in network drivers.
Many drivers use skb->tail unnecessarily.

In these situations, the code roughly looks like:

	dev = dev_alloc_skb(...);

	[optional] skb_reserve(skb, ...);

	... skb->tail ...

But even if the skb_reserve() happens, skb->data equals
skb->tail.  So it doesn't make any sense to use anything
other than skb->data in these cases.

Another case was the s2io.c driver directly mucking with
the skb->data and skb->tail pointers.  It really just wanted
to do an skb_reserve(), so that's what the code was changed
to do instead.

Another reason I'm making this change as it allows some SKB
cleanups I have planned simpler to merge.  In those cleanups,
skb->head, skb->tail, and skb->end pointers are removed, and
replaced with skb->head_room and skb->tail_room integers.

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!
