2008-04-24seqlock: livelock fixIngo Molnar
Thomas Gleixner debugged a particularly ugly seqlock related livelock: do not process the seq-read section if we know it beforehand that the test at the end of the section will fail ... Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2006-12-12[PATCH] lockdep: fix seqlock_init()Ingo Molnar
seqlock_init() needs to use spin_lock_init() for dynamic locks, so that lockdep is notified about the presence of a new lock. (this is a fallout of the recent networking merge, which started using the so-far unused seqlock_init() API.) This fix solves the following lockdep-internal warning on current -git: INFO: trying to register non-static key. the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation. turning off the locking correctness validator. __lock_acquire+0x10c/0x9f9 lock_acquire+0x56/0x72 _spin_lock+0x35/0x42 neigh_destroy+0x9d/0x12e neigh_periodic_timer+0x10a/0x15c run_timer_softirq+0x126/0x18e __do_softirq+0x6b/0xe6 do_softirq+0x64/0xd2 ksoftirqd+0x82/0x138 Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-04-11[PATCH] x86_64: inline function prefix with __always_inline in vsyscallmao, bibo
In vsyscall function do_vgettimeofday(), some functions are declared as inlined, which is a hint for gcc to compile the function inlined but it not forced. Sometimes compiler does not compile the function as inlined, so here inline is replaced by __always_inline prefix. It does not happen in gcc compiler actually, but it possibly happens.

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!
