9810933701 [PATCH] stop CompactFlash devices being marked as removable
This patch stops CompactFlash devices being marked as removable.  They are
not removable (as defined by Linux) as the media and device are
inseparable.  When a card is removed, the whole device is removed from the
system and never sits in a media-less state.

This stops some nasty udev device creation/destruction loops.

Further, once this change is made, there is no need for ide to can be
removed from ide_drive_t.

ba027def7b [PATCH] Revert ide softirq handling
There's a problem with the REQ_BLOCK_PC handling as well (bad ->data_len
handling) where it could actually complete a request ahead of time.  I
suggest we just back this out for now, I will resubmit it later when I'm
fully confident in it.

This reverts commit 8672d57138

f36d4024ca [PATCH] mutex subsystem, semaphore to completion: IDE ->gendev_rel_sem
The patch changes semaphores that are initialized as
locked to complete().

Source: MontaVista Software, Inc.

Modified-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The following patch is from Montavista.  I modified it slightly.
Semaphores are currently being used where it makes more sense for
completions.  This patch corrects that.

8672d57138 [IDE] Use the block layer deferred softirq request completion
This patch makes IDE use the new blk_complete_request() interface.
There's still room for improvement, as __ide_end_request() really
could drop the lock after getting HWGROUP->rq (why does it need to
hold it in the first place? If ->rq access isn't serialized, we are
screwed anyways).

556e58febf [PATCH] ide: fix kmalloc_node breakage in ide driver
Patch fixes oops caused by ide interfaces not on pci.  pcibus_to_node
causes the kernel to crash otherwise.  Patch also adds a BUG_ON to check if
hwif is NULL.

1946089a10 [PATCH] NUMA aware block device control structure allocation
Patch to allocate the control structures for for ide devices on the node of
the device itself (for NUMA systems).  The patch depends on the Slab API
change patch by Manfred and me (in mm) and the pcidev_to_node patch that I
posted today.

Does some realignment too.

284e423811 [PATCH] timeout at boottime with NEC3500A (and possibly others) when inserted a CD in it
From: Marcello Maggioni <hayarms@gmail.com>

Problem: Some drives (NEC 3500, TDK 1616N, Mad-dog MD-16XDVD9, RICOH
MP5163DA, Memorex DVD9 drive and IO-DATA's too for sure), if a
CD/DVD is inserted into the tray when the system is booted and if
before the OS bootup the BIOS checked for the presence of a bootable
CD/DVD into the drive, during the IDE probe phase the drive may
result busy and remain so for the next 25/30 seconds . This cause the
drive to be skipped during the booting phase and not begin usable
until the next reboot (if the reboot goes well and the drive doesn't
timeout again).

Solution: Rising the timeout time from 10 seconds to 35 seconds
(during these 35 seconds every drive should wake up for sure
according to the tests I've done).

8604affde9 [PATCH] convert IDE device drivers to driver-model
* add ide_bus_match() and export ide_bus_type
* split ide_remove_driver_from_hwgroup() out of ide_unregister()
* move device cleanup from ide_unregister() to drive_release_dev()
* convert ide_driver_t->name to driver->name
* convert ide_driver_t->{attach,cleanup} to driver->{probe,remove}
* remove ide_driver_t->busy as ide_bus_type->subsys.rwsem
  protects against concurrent ->{probe,remove} calls
* make ide_{un}register_driver() void as it cannot fail now
* use driver_{un}register() directly, remove ide_{un}register_driver()
* use device_register() instead of ata_attach(), remove ata_attach()
* add proc_print_driver() and ide_drivers_show(), remove ide_drivers_op
* fix ide_replace_subdriver() and move it to ide-proc.c
* remove ide_driver_t->drives, ide_drives and drives_lock
* remove ide_driver_t->drivers, drivers and drivers_lock
* remove ide_drive_t->driver and DRIVER() macro

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!
