e3aa205aa1 Documentation usb serial: fixed how to provide vendor and product id
While trying to test a Cinterion GSM/GPS/3G module I had reconfigured
the USB interface by mistake and therefore needed to run a different
USB driver than CDC-ACM. It turned out that I need the "usbserial" driver.

This file is an official description how to use it:
Documentation/usb/usb-serial.txt

But it is outdated. The parameters vendor= and product= have been
superseded by a /sys interface.

Here was the solution:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=175499

  insmod usbserial vendor=0x#### product=0x####

becomes (first #### is vendor, second is product)

  modprobe usbserial
  echo #### #### >/sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/generic/new_id

This patch changes the documentation file to describe the modern variant.
Please note that the old one still works (if compiled as module).

0ea6e61122 Documentation: update broken web addresses.
Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.

b69578df7e USB: usbserial: mos7720: add support for parallel port on moschip 7715
Add support for the parallel port on the moschip MCS7715 device.  The port
registers itself with the parport subsystem as a low-level driver.  A separate
entry to the kernel configuration is added beneath that for the mos7720, to
avoid the need to link with the parport subsystem code for users who don't have
or don't want the parallel port.  Only compatibility mode is currently supported
(no ECP/EPP).  Tested with both moschip devices (7720 and 7715) on UP and SMP
hosts, including regression testing of serial port, concurrent operation of
serial and parallel ports, and various connect / disconnect scenarios.

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!
