2005-06-21	[PATCH] __read_page_state(): pass unsigned long instead of unsigned	Benjamin LaHaise	1	-1/+1
	By making the offset argument of __read_page_state an unsigned long instead of unsigned, we can avoid forcing the compiler to sign extend a usually constant argument. This saves 1 instruction on x86-64. Signed-off-by: Benjamin LaHaise <benjamin.c.lahaise@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-06-21	[PATCH] mm: remove PG_highmem	Badari Pulavarty	1	-16/+15
	Remove PG_highmem, to save a page flag. Use is_highmem() instead. It'll generate a little more code, but we don't use PageHigheMem() in many places. Signed-off-by: Badari Pulavarty <pbadari@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-05-01	[PATCH] count bounce buffer pages in vmstat	KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki	1	-0/+1
	This is a patch for counting the number of pages for bounce buffers. It's shown in /proc/vmstat. Currently, the number of bounce pages are not counted anywhere. So, if there are many bounce pages, it seems that there are leaked pages. And it's difficult for a user to imagine the usage of bounce pages. So, it's meaningful to show # of bouce pages.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+324
	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!
