bb30f36f9b [ARM] Introduce new PTE memory type bits
Provide L_PTE_MT_xxx definitions to describe the memory types that we
use in Linux/ARM.  These definitions are carefully picked such that:

1. their LSBs match what is required for pre-ARMv6 CPUs.
2. they all have a unique encoding, including after modification
   by build_mem_type_table() (the result being that some have more
   than one combination.)

09d9bae064 [ARM] sparse: fix several warnings
arch/arm/kernel/process.c:270:6: warning: symbol 'show_fpregs' was not declared. Should it be static?

This function isn't used, so can be removed.

arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:532:9: warning: symbol 'len' shadows an earlier one
arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:524:6: originally declared here

A function containing two 'len's.

46097c7dd8 [ARM] cachetype: move definitions to separate header
Rather than pollute asm/cacheflush.h with the cache type definitions,
move them to asm/cachetype.h, and include this new header where
necessary.

53cdb27a93 [ARM] Fix shared mmap when more than two maps of the same file exist
The shared mmap code works fine for the test case, which only checked
for two shared maps of the same file.  However, three shared maps
result in one mapping remaining cached, resulting in stale data being
visible via that mapping.  Fix this.

826cbdaff2 [ARM] 5092/1: Fix the I-cache invalidation on ARMv6 and later CPUs
This patch adds the I-cache invalidation in update_mmu_cache if the
corresponding vma is marked as executable. It also invalidates the
I-cache if a thread migrates to a CPU it never ran on.

cb36bb7516 [ARM] 4191/1: Remove redundant __flush_dcache_page() function prototype
Commit 1c9d3df5e8 added function prototype
__flush_dcache_page() in include/asm-arm/cacheflush.h.  So we can remove
the prototype for same in arch/arm/mm/fault-armv.c since it is now
redundant to have it there.

ad1ae2fe7f [ARM] Unuse another Linux PTE bit
L_PTE_ASID is not really required to be stored in every PTE, since we
can identify it via the address passed to set_pte_at().  So, create
set_pte_ext() which takes the address of the PTE to set, the Linux
PTE value, and the additional CPU PTE bits which aren't encoded in
the Linux PTE value.

69b0475456 [PATCH] mm: arm ready for split ptlock
Prepare arm for the split page_table_lock: three issues.

Signal handling's preserve and restore of iwmmxt context currently involves
reading and writing that context to and from user space, while holding
page_table_lock to secure the user page(s) against kswapd.  If we split the
lock, then the structure might span two pages, secured by to read into and
write from a kernel stack buffer, copying that out and in without locking (the
structure is 160 bytes in size, and here we're near the top of the kernel
stack).  Or would the overhead be noticeable?

arm_syscall's cmpxchg emulation use pte_offset_map_lock, instead of
pte_offset_map and mm-wide page_table_lock; and strictly, it should now also
take mmap_sem before descending to pmd, to guard against another thread
munmapping, and the page table pulled out beneath this thread.

Updated two comments in fault-armv.c.  adjust_pte is interesting, since its
modification of a pte in one part of the mm depends on the lock held when
calling update_mmu_cache for a pte in some other part of that mm.  This can't
be done with a split page_table_lock (and we've already taken the lowest lock
in the hierarchy here): so we'll have to disable split on arm, unless
CONFIG_CPU_CACHE_VIPT to ensures adjust_pte never used.

8830f04a09 [PATCH] ARM: Fix delayed dcache flush for ARMv6 non-aliasing caches
flush_dcache_page() did nothing for these caches, but since they
suffer from I/D cache coherency issues, we need to ensure that data
is written back to RAM.

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!
