Al Viro fdd33961e9 amd64: fix get_user() on bitwise
We really need force-cast when converting to final result type;
unsigned long can be silently converted to integer types and
to pointers, but not to bitwise.

Andi Kleen 0812a579c9 [PATCH] x86-64: Add __copy_from_user_nocache
This does user copies in fs write() into the page cache with write combining.
This pushes the destination out of the CPU's cache, but allows higher bandwidth
in some case.

The theory is that the page cache data is usually not touched by the
CPU again and it's better to not pollute the cache with it. Also it is a little
faster.

Tilman Schmidt 16cf5b39b8 [PATCH] fix sparse warnings from {asm,net}/checksum.h
Rename the variable "sum" in the __range_ok macros to avoid name collisions
causing lots of "symbol shadows an earlier one" warnings by sparse.

Roland McGrath 5ad0d383dd [PATCH] x86_64: fix put_user for 64-bit constant
On x86-64, a put_user call using a 64-bit pointer and a constant value that
is > 0xffffffff will produce code that doesn't assemble.  This patch fixes
the asm construct to use the Z constraint for 32-bit constants.

Andi Kleen 3022d734a5 [PATCH] Fix zeroing on exception in copy_*_user
- Don't zero for __copy_from_user_inatomic following i386.
This will prevent spurious zeros for parallel file system writers when
one does a exception
- The string instruction version didn't zero the output on
exception. Oops.

Also I cleaned up the code a bit while I was at it and added a minor
optimization to the string instruction path.

Ingo Molnar 652050aec9 [PATCH] mark several functions __always_inline
Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org>

Mark a number of functions as 'must inline'.  The functions affected by this
patch need to be inlined because they use knowledge that their arguments are
constant so that most of the function optimizes away.  At this point this
patch does not change behavior, it's for documentation only (and for future
patches in the inline series)

Jan Beulich 5f1d189f8a [PATCH] x86_64: Display meaningful part of filename during BUG()
When building in a separate objtree, file names produced by BUG() & Co. can
get fairly long; printing only the first 50 characters may thus result in
(almost) no useful information. The following change makes it so that rather
the last 50 characters of the filename get printed.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-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!
