3106dbcd91 [PATCH] __get_unaligned() turned into macro
Turns __get_unaligned() and __put_unaligned into macros.  That is
definitely safe; leaving them as inlines breaks on e.g.  alpha [try to
build ncpfs there and you'll get unresolved symbols since we end up
getting __get_unaligned() not inlined].

8f6c99c11a [PATCH] freepgt: remove arch pgd_addr_end
ia64 and sparc64 hurriedly had to introduce their own variants of
pgd_addr_end, to leapfrog over the holes in their virtual address spaces which
the final clear_page_range suddenly presented when converted from pgd_index to
pgd_addr_end.  But now that free_pgtables respects the vma list, those holes
are never presented, and the arch variants can go.

dae409a277 [PATCH] add Big Endian variants of ioread/iowrite
In the new io infrastructure, all of our operators are expecting the
underlying device to be little endian (because the PCI bus, their main
consumer, is LE).

However, there are a fair few devices and busses in the world that are
actually Big Endian.  There's even evidence that some of these BE bus and
chip types are attached to LE systems.  Thus, there's a need for a BE
equivalent of our io{read,write}{16,32} operations.

The attached patch adds this as io{read,write}{16,32}be.  When it's in,
I'll add the first consume (the 53c700 SCSI chip driver).

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!
