2007-02-12	[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 5	Arjan van de Ven	1	-1/+1
	Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

2006-12-13	[PATCH] Fix numerous kcalloc() calls, convert to kzalloc()	Robert P. J. Day	1	-11/+11
	All kcalloc() calls of the form "kcalloc(1,...)" are converted to the equivalent kzalloc() calls, and a few kcalloc() calls with the incorrect ordering of the first two arguments are fixed.

2006-03-26	[PATCH] sem2mutex: misc static one-file mutexes	Ingo Molnar	1	-3/+4
	Semaphore to mutex conversion. The conversion was generated via scripts, and the result was validated automatically via a script as well.

2006-03-25	[PATCH] Fix memory leak in isapnp	Jesper Juhl	1	-1/+3
	Spotted by the Coverity checker as bug #666 akpm; there are several other `return 1;'s in there which aren't freeing `dev'. (A fix which converts this function to single-exit would be preferred..)

2005-11-07	[PATCH] drivers/pnp/: cleanups	Adrian Bunk	1	-0/+2
	This patch contains the following possible cleanups: - make needlessly global code static - #if 0 the following unused global function: - core.c: pnp_remove_device - #if 0 the following unneeded EXPORT_SYMBOL's: - card.c: pnp_add_card - card.c: pnp_remove_card - card.c: pnp_add_card_device - card.c: pnp_remove_card_device - card.c: pnp_add_card_id - core.c: pnp_register_protocol - core.c: pnp_unregister_protocol - core.c: pnp_add_device - core.c: pnp_remove_device - pnpacpi/core.c: pnpacpi_protocol - driver.c: pnp_add_id - isapnp/core.c: isapnp_read_byte - manager.c: pnp_auto_config_dev - resource.c: pnp_register_dependent_option - resource.c: pnp_register_independent_option - resource.c: pnp_register_irq_resource - resource.c: pnp_register_dma_resource - resource.c: pnp_register_port_resource - resource.c: pnp_register_mem_resource Note that this patch #if 0's exactly one functions and removes no functions. Most it does is the #if 0 of EXPORT_SYMBOL's, so if any modular code will use any of them, re-adding will be trivial. Modular ISAPnP might be interesting in some cases, but this is more legacy code. If someone would work on it to sort all the issues out (starting with the point that most users of __ISAPNP__ will have to be fixed) re-enabling the required EXPORT_SYMBOL's won't be hard for him.

2005-09-07	[PATCH] pnp: consolidate kmalloc wrappers	Bjorn Helgaas	1	-22/+11
	ISAPNP, PNPBIOS, and PNPACPI all had their own kmalloc wrappers that reimplemented kcalloc(). Remove the wrappers and just use kcalloc() directly. Note that this also removes the PNPBIOS error message when the kmalloc fails.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	5	-0/+1436
	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!
