9f38c636ab [PATCH] b44: alternate allocation option for DMA descriptors
This is a (final?) hack to support the odd DMA allocation requirements
of the b44 hardware.  The b44 hardware has a 30-bit DMA mask.  On x86,
anything less than a 32-bit DMA mask forces allocations into the 16MB
GFP_DMA range.  The memory there is somewhat limited, often resulting
in an inability to initialize the b44 driver.

This hack uses streaming DMA allocation APIs in order to provide an
alternative in case the GFP_DMA allocation fails.  It is somewhat ugly,
but not much worse than the similar existing hacks to support SKB
allocations in the same driver.  FWIW, I have received positive
feedback on this from several Fedora users.

e254e9bff5 [PATCH] b44: check link state during open
Check the link state during b44_open.  This closes a 1 HZ window
that existed after b44_open ran but before the b44_timer handler ran,
during which ethtool would report "Link detected: yes" no matter what
the link state actually was.

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!
