8728b834b2 [NET]: Kill skb->list
Remove the "list" member of struct sk_buff, as it is entirely
redundant.  All SKB list removal callers know which list the
SKB is on, so storing this in sk_buff does nothing other than
taking up some space.

Two tricky bits were SCTP, which I took care of, and two ATM
drivers which Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com> fixed
up.

1934b8b656 [PATCH] Sync up ieee-1394
Lots of this patch is trivial code cleanups (static vars were being
intialized to 0, etc).

There's also some fixes for ISO transmits (max buffer handling).
Aswell, we have a few fixes to disable IRM capabilites correctly.  We've
also disabled, by default some generally unused EXPORT symbols for the
sake of cleanliness in the kernel.  However, instead of removing them
completely, we felt it necessary to have a config option that allowed
them to be enabled for the many projects outside of the main kernel tree
that use our API for driver development.

The primary reason for this patch is to revert a MODE6->MODE10 RBC
conversion patch from the SCSI maintainers.  The new conversions handled
directly in the scsi layer do not seem to work for SBP2.  This patch
reverts to our old working code so that users can enjoy using Firewire
disks and dvd drives again.

We are working with the SCSI maintainers to resolve this issue outside
of the main kernel tree.  We'll merge the patch once the SCSI layer's
handling of the MODE10 conversion is working for us.

3e1d1d28d9 [PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezing
1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:

   frozen(process)		Check for frozen process
   freezing(process)		Check if a process is being frozen
   freeze(process)		Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
   thaw_process(process)	Restart process
   frozen_process(process)	Process is frozen now

2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
   kernel sources except sched.h

3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver

4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.

5. Some whitespace cleanup

6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
   cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
   PF_FROZEN).

This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!

6262d062a3 [PATCH] ieee1394: fix premature expiry of async packets
Set the initial sendtime to be 10 seconds in the future, to avoid the packet
timing out while it's still queued to be sent.  This fixes furthur "no tlabel
match" problems caused by premature expiry.

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!
