Al Viro 516e0cc564 [PATCH] f_count may wrap around
make it atomic_long_t; while we are at it, get rid of useless checks in affs,
hfs and hpfs - ->open() always has it equal to 1, ->release() - to 0.

Pavel Emelyanov 5c80f1ae98 [AF_UNIX]: Convert socks to unix_socks in scan_inflight, not in callbacks
The scan_inflight() routine scans through the unix sockets and calls
some passed callback. The fact is that all these callbacks work with
the unix_sock objects, not the sock ones, so make this conversion in
the scan_inflight() before calling the callbacks.

This removes one unneeded variable from the inc_inflight_move_tail().

Pavel Emelyanov 9305cfa444 [AF_UNIX]: Make unix_tot_inflight counter non-atomic
This counter is _always_ modified under the unix_gc_lock spinlock, 
so its atomicity can be provided w/o additional efforts.

Miklos Szeredi 1fd05ba5a2 [AF_UNIX]: Rewrite garbage collector, fixes race.
Throw out the old mark & sweep garbage collector and put in a
refcounting cycle detecting one.

The old one had a race with recvmsg, that resulted in false positives
and hence data loss.  The old algorithm operated on all unix sockets
in the system, so any additional locking would have meant performance
problems for all users of these.

The new algorithm instead only operates on "in flight" sockets, which
are very rare, and the additional locking for these doesn't negatively
impact the vast majority of users.

In fact it's probable, that there weren't *any* heavy senders of
sockets over sockets, otherwise the above race would have been
discovered long ago.

The patch works OK with the app that exposed the race with the old
code.  The garbage collection has also been verified to work in a few
simple cases.

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

David S. Miller fbe9cc4a87 [AF_UNIX]: Use spinlock for unix_table_lock
This lock is actually taken mostly as a writer,
so using a rwlock actually just makes performance
worse especially on chips like the Intel P4.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo c752f0739f [TCP]: Move the tcp sock states to net/tcp_states.h
Lots of places just needs the states, not even linux/tcp.h, where this
enum was, needs it.

This speeds up development of the refactorings as less sources are
rebuilt when things get moved from net/tcp.h.

David S. Miller 8728b834b2 [NET]: Kill skb->list
Remove the "list" member of struct sk_buff, as it is entirely
redundant.  All SKB list removal callers know which list the
SKB is on, so storing this in sk_buff does nothing other than
taking up some space.

Two tricky bits were SCTP, which I took care of, and two ATM
drivers which Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com> fixed
up.

Linus Torvalds 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!
