2009-03-24	mca: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(), dev_set_name()	Kay Sievers	1	-2/+2

2008-07-21	driver core: remove DEVICE_NAME_SIZE define	Kay Sievers	1	-1/+1
	There is no such thing as a "device name size" in the driver core, so remove the define and fix up any users of this odd define in the rest of the kernel. Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2008-04-29	proc: remove proc_root from drivers	Alexey Dobriyan	1	-1/+1
	Remove proc_root export. Creation and removal works well if parent PDE is supplied as NULL -- it worked always that way. So, one useless export removed and consistency added, some drivers created PDEs with &proc_root as parent but removed them as NULL and so on.

2007-05-09	mca: add integrated device bus matching	James Bottomley	2	-10/+29
	The MCA bus has a few "integrated" functions, which are effectively virtual slots on the bus. The problem is that these special functions don't have dedicated pos IDs, so we have to manufacture ids for them outside the pos space ... and these ids can't be matched by the standard matching function, so add a special registration that requests a list of pos ids or a particular integrated function.

2007-05-09	mca: fix bus matching	James Bottomley	1	-1/+1
	There's a bug in the MCA bus matching algorithm in that it promotes from signed short to int before comparing with the actual id and does sign extension on anything > 0x7fff (which means that pos ids > 0x7fff never get correctly matched).

2005-10-30	[PATCH] fix missing includes	Tim Schmielau	1	-0/+1
	I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

2005-06-25	[PATCH] unexport mca_find_device_by_slot	Adrian Bunk	1	-1/+0
	I didn't find any possible modular usage of mca_find_device_by_slot in the kernel, and this patch therefore removes the EXPORT_SYMBOL. This patch should be safe since mca-legacy is nothing drivers should move to.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	7	-0/+1034
	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!
