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!

+ *
+ * Finds length of a 0-terminated string.  Optimized for the
+ * Alpha architecture:
+ *
+ *      - memory accessed as aligned quadwords only
+ *      - uses bcmpge to compare 8 bytes in parallel
+ *      - does binary search to find 0 byte in last
+ *        quadword (HAKMEM needed 12 instructions to
+ *        do this instead of the 9 instructions that
+ *        binary search needs).
