63551ae0fe [PATCH] Hugepage consolidation
A lot of the code in arch/*/mm/hugetlbpage.c is quite similar.  This patch
attempts to consolidate a lot of the code across the arch's, putting the
combined version in mm/hugetlb.c.  There are a couple of uglyish hacks in
order to covert all the hugepage archs, but the result is a very large
reduction in the total amount of code.  It also means things like hugepage
lazy allocation could be implemented in one place, instead of six.

Tested, at least a little, on ppc64, i386 and x86_64.

Notes:
	- this patch changes the meaning of set_huge_pte() to be more
	  analagous to set_pte()
	- does SH4 need s special huge_ptep_get_and_clear()??

37053cc84d [PATCH] sh: PREEMPT_ACTIVE fix
Port Paulus's ppc64 fix to sh:

  When the generic IRQ stuff went in, it seems that HARDIRQ_BITS got bumped
  from 9 (for ppc64) up to 12.  Consequently, the PREEMPT_ACTIVE bit is now
  within HARDIRQ_MASK, and I get in_interrupt() falsely returning true when
  PREEMPT_ACTIVE is set, and thus a BUG_ON tripping in arch/ppc64/mm/tlb.c.

b1ecb4c3a9 [PATCH] asm/signal.h unification
New file - asm-generic/signal.h.  Contains declarations of
__sighandler_t, __sigrestore_t, SIG_DFL, SIG_IGN, SIG_ERR and default
definitions of SIG_BLOCK, SIG_UNBLOCK and SIG_SETMASK.

asm-*/signal.h switched to including it.  The only exception is
asm-parisc/signal.h that wants its own declaration of __sighandler_t;
that one is left as-is.

asm-ppc64/signal.h required one more thing - unlike everybody else it
used __sigrestorer_t instead of usual __sigrestore_t.  PPC64 switched to
common spelling.

e49332bd12 [PATCH] misc verify_area cleanups
There were still a few comments left refering to verify_area, and two
functions, verify_area_skas & verify_area_tt that just wrap corresponding
access_ok_skas & access_ok_tt functions, just like verify_area does for
access_ok - deprecate those.

There was also a few places that still used verify_area in commented-out
code, fix those up to use access_ok.

After applying this one there should not be anything left but finally
removing verify_area completely, which will happen after a kernel release
or two.

7f261b5f0d [PATCH] move SA_xxx defines to linux/signal.h
The attached patch moves the IRQ-related SA_xxx flags (namely, SA_PROBE,
SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM and SA_SHIRQ) from all the arch-specific headers to
linux/signal.h.  This looks like a left-over after the irq-handling code
was consolidated.  The code was moved to kernel/irq/*, but the flags are
still left per-arch.

Right now, adding a new IRQ flag to the arch-specific header, like this
patch does:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/alsa/alsa-driver/utils/patches/pcsp-kernel-2.6.10-03.diff?rev=1.1
no longer works, it breaks the compilation for all other arches, unless you
add that flag to all the other arch-specific headers too.  So I think such
a clean-up makes sense.

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!
