Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-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!

+        The syncppp drivers in Linux provide a fairly complete 
+        implementation of Cisco HDLC and a minimal implementation of
+        PPP. The longer term goal is to switch the PPP layer to the
+        generic PPP interface that is new in Linux 2.3.x. The API should
+        remain unchanged when this is done, but support will then be
+        available for IPX, compression and other PPP features
