2012-12-06	propagate name change to comments in kernel source	Nadia Yvette Chambers	1	-1/+1
	I've legally changed my name with New York State, the US Social Security Administration, et al. This patch propagates the name change and change in initials and login to comments in the kernel source as well.

2012-08-09	net: Dont use ifindices in hash fns	Pavel Emelyanov	1	-0/+10
	Eric noticed, that when there will be devices with equal indices, some hash functions that use them will become less effective as they could. Fix this in advance by mixing the net_device address into the hash value instead of the device index. This is true for arp and ndisc hash fns. The netlabel, can and llc ones are also ifindex-based, but that three are init_net-only, thus will not be affected. Many thanks to David and Eric for the hash32_ptr implementation!

2011-08-17	mm: make HASHED_PAGE_VIRTUAL page_address' struct page argument const.	Ian Campbell	1	-1/+1
	Followup to 33dd4e0ec911 "mm: make some struct page's const" which missed the HASHED_PAGE_VIRTUAL case.

2008-02-06	hash: add explicit u32 and u64 versions of hash	Matthew Wilcox	1	-15/+27
	The 32-bit version is more efficient (and apparently gives better hash results than the 64-bit version), so users who are only hashing a 32-bit quantity can now opt to use the 32-bit version explicitly, rather than promoting to a long.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+58
	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!
