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!

+=========================================================================
+Register usage notes, originally from John Marvin, with some additional
+notes from Randolph Chung.
+
+For the general registers:
+
+r1,r2,r19-r26,r28,r29 & r31 can be used without saving them first. And of
+course, you need to save them if you care about them, before calling
+another procedure. Some of the above registers do have special meanings
+that you should be aware of:
+
+    r1: The addil instruction is hardwired to place its result in r1,
+        so if you use that instruction be aware of that.
+
+    r2: This is the return pointer. In general you don't want to
+        use this, since you need the pointer to get back to your
+        caller. However, it is grouped with this set of registers
+        since the caller can't rely on the value being the same
+        when you return, i.e. you can copy r2 to another register
+        and return through that register after trashing r2, and
+        that should not cause a problem for the calling routine.
+
+    r19-r22: these are generally regarded as temporary registers.
+        Note that in 64 bit they are arg7-arg4.
+
+    r23-r26: these are arg3-arg0, i.e. you can use them if you
+        don't care about the values that were passed in anymore.
+
+    r28,r29: are ret0 and ret1. They are what you pass return values
+        in. r28 is the primary return. When returning small structures
+        r29 may also be used to pass data back to the caller.
+
+    r30: stack pointer
+
+    r31: the ble instruction puts the return pointer in here.
+
+
+r3-r18,r27,r30 need to be saved and restored. r3-r18 are just
+    general purpose registers. r27 is the data pointer, and is
+    used to make references to global variables easier. r30 is
+    the stack pointer.
