Thomas Petazzoni 2d6ffcca62 inflate: refactor inflate malloc code
Inflate requires some dynamic memory allocation very early in the boot
process and this is provided with a set of four functions:
malloc/free/gzip_mark/gzip_release.

The old inflate code used a mark/release strategy rather than implement
free.  This new version instead keeps a count on the number of outstanding
allocations and when it hits zero, it resets the malloc arena.

This allows removing all the mark and release implementations and unifying
all the malloc/free implementations.

The architecture-dependent code must define two addresses:
 - free_mem_ptr, the address of the beginning of the area in which
   allocations should be made
 - free_mem_end_ptr, the address of the end of the area in which
   allocations should be made. If set to 0, then no check is made on
   the number of allocations, it just grows as much as needed

The architecture-dependent code can also provide an arch_decomp_wdog()
function call.  This function will be called several times during the
decompression process, and allow to notify the watchdog that the system is
still running.  If an architecture provides such a call, then it must
define ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG so that the generic inflate code calls
arch_decomp_wdog().

Work initially done by Matt Mackall, updated to a recent version of the
kernel and improved by me.

Hirokazu Takata d93f7de8c5 [PATCH] m32r: bootloader support for OPSPUT platform
This patch supports "m32r-g00ff" bootloader for an OPSPUT platform.

Applying this patch, it is possible to do ATA-boot from an IDE drive or
HTTP-boot from network by m32r-g00ff.

    * arch/m32r/boot/compressed/m32r_sio.c: Fix hangup on OPSPUT at boot.

    * arch/m32r/kernel/io_opsput.c: IDE support for OPSPUT.
    * arch/m32r/kernel/setup_opsput.c: ditto.
    * include/asm-m32r/ide.h: ditto.

Hirokazu Takata 9287d95ea1 [PATCH] m32r: Support M32104UT target platform
This patch is for supporting a new target platform, Renesas M32104UT
evaluation board.

The M32104UT is an eval board based on an uT-Engine specification.  This board
has an MMU-less M32R family processor, M32104.
http://www-wa0.personal-media.co.jp/pmc/archive/te/te_m32104_e.pdf

This board is one of the most popular M32R platform, so we have ported
Linux/M32R to it.

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!
