82ddcb0405 [PATCH] extend the set of "__attribute__" shortcut macros
Extend the set of "__attribute__" shortcut macros, and remove identical
(and now superfluous) definitions from a couple of source files.

based on a page at robert love's blog:

	http://rlove.org/log/2005102601

extend the set of shortcut macros defined in compiler-gcc.h with the
following:

#define __packed                       __attribute__((packed))
#define __weak                         __attribute__((weak))
#define __naked                        __attribute__((naked))
#define __noreturn                     __attribute__((noreturn))
#define __pure                         __attribute__((pure))
#define __aligned(x)                   __attribute__((aligned(x)))
#define __printf(a,b)                  __attribute__((format(printf,a,b)))

Once these are in place, it's up to subsystem maintainers to decide if they
want to take advantage of them.  there is already a strong precedent for
using shortcuts like this in the source tree.

The ones that might give people pause are "__aligned" and "__printf", but
shortcuts for both of those are already in use, and in some ways very
confusingly.  note the two very different definitions for a macro named
"ALIGNED":

  drivers/net/sgiseeq.c:#define ALIGNED(x) ((((unsigned long)(x)) + 0xf) & ~(0xf))
  drivers/scsi/ultrastor.c:#define ALIGNED(x) __attribute__((aligned(x)))

also:

  include/acpi/platform/acgcc.h:
    #define ACPI_PRINTF_LIKE(c) __attribute__ ((__format__ (__printf__, c, c+1)))

Given the precedent, then, it seems logical to at least standardize on a
consistent set of these macros.

9202f32558 [MIPS] Export local_flush_data_cache_page for sake of IDE.
On a CPU with aliases the IDE core needs to flush caches in the special
IDE variants of insw, insl etc.  If IDE support is built as a module this
will only work if local_flush_data_cache_page happens is exported as a
module.

As per policy export local_flush_data_cache_page as GPL symbol only.

585fa72493 [MIPS] Retire flush_icache_page from mm use.
On the 34K the redundant cache operations were causing excessive stalls
resulting in realtime code running on the second VPE missing its deadline.
For all other platforms this patch is just a significant performance
improvment as illustrated by below benchmark numbers.

750ccf687f Fix zero length sys_cacheflush
Cacheflush(0, 0, 0) was crashing the system.  This is because
flush_icache_range(start, end) tries to flushing whole address space
(0 - ~0UL) if both start and end are zero.

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!
