3a45975681 [PATCH] IA64,sparc: local DoS with corrupted ELFs
This prevents cross-region mappings on IA64 and SPARC which could lead
to system crash.  They were correctly trapped for normal mmap() calls,
but not for the kernel internal calls generated by executable loading.

This code just moves the architecture-specific cross-region checks into
an arch-specific "arch_mmap_check()" macro, and defines that for the
architectures that needed it (ia64, sparc and sparc64).

Architectures that don't have any special requirements can just ignore
the new cross-region check, since the mmap() code will just notice on
its own when the macro isn't defined.

0a41e25011 [IA64] Rationalise Region Definitions
Currently, region numbers are defined in several files, with several 
names.  For example, we have REGION_KERNEL in asm/page.h and 
RGN_KERNEL in pgtable.h 
 
We also have address definitions that should depend on the 
RGN_XXX macros, but are currently just long constants. 
 
The following patch reorganises all the definitions so that they have 
the same form (RGN_XXX), are in one place, and that addresses that 
depend on RGN_XXX are derived from them. 

(This is a necessary but not sufficient patch to allow UML-like 
operation on IA64). 

Thanks to David Mosberger for catching the change I missed in mmu_context.h.

d11cf326bd [IA64] sys_mmap doesn't follow posix.1 when parameter len=0
In IA64 kernel, sys_mmap calls do_mmap2 and do_mmap2 returns addr if
len=0, which means the mmap sys call succeeds.

Posix.1 says:
The mmap() function shall fail if:
[EINVAL] The value of len is zero. 

Here is a patch to fix it.

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!
