8bff05b052 [POWERPC] iseries: A new iSeries console
This driver uses the hvc_console.c infrastructure that is used by the
pSeries virtual and RTAS consoles.  This will allow us to make viocons.c
obsolete and is another step along the way to a combined kernel (as
viocons could not coexist with CONFIG_VT).

a45b83957d [POWERPC] Add support for briq front panel
This adds the driver for the Briq front panel. This is a cleaned up
version of a driver that has been floating around for some time now,
initially written by Karsten Jeppesen <karsten@jeppesens.com> and
cleaned up by jk and myself.

681a3e7dab [PATCH] chardev: GPIO for SCx200 & PC-8736x: add new pc8736x_gpio module
Add the brand new pc8736x_gpio driver.  This is mostly based upon
scx200_gpio.c, but the platform_dev is treated separately, since its fairly
big too.

59f5d35f83 [PATCH] Remove old HW RNG support
This patch series replaces the old non-generic Hardware Random Number
Generator support by a fully generic RNG API.

This makes it possible to register additional RNGs from modules.  With this
patch series applied, Laptops with a bcm43xx chip (PowerBook) have a HW RNG
available now.

Additionally two new RNG drivers are added for the "ixp4xx" and "omap"
devices.  (Written by Deepak Saxena).  This patch series includes the old
patches by Deepak Saxena.

The old x86-rng driver has beed split.

The userspace RNG daemon can later be updated to select the RNG through
/sys/class/misc/hw_random/ for convenience.  For now it is sufficient to use
cat and echo -n on the sysfs attributes.

938473b246 [PATCH] powerpc: console_initcall ordering issues
From: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com>

The add_preferred_console call in rtas_console.c was not causing the
console to be selected.  It turns out that the add_preferred_console was
being called after the hvc_console driver was registered.  It only works
when it is called before the console driver is registered.

Reorder hvc_console.o after the hvc_console drivers to allow the selection
during console_initcall processing.

45d607ed92 [PATCH] powerpc: hvc_console updates
These are some updates from both Ryan and Arnd for the hvc_console
driver:

The main point is to enable the inclusion of a console driver
for rtas, which is currrently needed for the cell platform.

Also shuffle around some data-type declarations and moves some
functions out of include/asm-ppc64/hvconsole.h and into a new
drivers/char/hvc_console.h file.

67639deb09 [IA64] Altix system controller event handling
The following is an update of the patch I sent yesterday
(3/9/05) incorporating suggestions from Christoph Hellwig and
Andreas Schwab.  It allows Altix and Altix-like systems to
handle environmental events generated by the system controllers,
and should apply on top of Jack Steiner's patch of 3/1/05 ("New
chipset support for SN platform") and Mark Goodwin's patch of
3/8/05 ("Altix SN topology support for new chipsets and pci
topology").

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!
