*	[BLOCK] Get rid of request_queue_t typedef	Jens Axboe	2007-07-24
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Some of the code has been gradually transitioned to using the proper struct request_queue, but there's lots left. So do a full sweet of the kernel and get rid of this typedef and replace its uses with the proper type. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
*	[PATCH] Fix soft lockup with iSeries viocd driver	Tony Breeds	2007-03-05
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Fix soft lockup with iSeries viocd driver, caused by eventually calling end_that_request_first() with nr_bytes 0. Some versions of hald do an SG_IO ioctl on the viocd device which becomes a request with hard_nr_sectors and hard_cur_sectors set to zero. Passing zero as the number of sectors to end_request() (which calls end_that_request_first()) causes an infinite loop when the bio is being freed. This patch makes sure that the zero is never passed. It only requires some number larger the the request size the terminate the loop. The lockup is triggered by hald, interrogating the device.

*	[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 3	Arjan van de Ven	2007-02-12
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

\| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Just removes a few unused #defines and fixes some comments due to devfs now being gone. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

*	[PATCH] kill cdrom ->dev_ioctl method	Christoph Hellwig	2006-03-23
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Since early 2.4.x all cdrom drivers implement the block_device methods themselves, so they can handle additional ioctls directly instead of going through the cdrom layer.

*	Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	2005-04-16
	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!
