Martin Schwidefsky	6252d702c5	[S390] dynamic page tables. Add support for different number of page table levels dependent on the highest address used for a process. This will cause a 31 bit process to use a two level page table instead of the four level page table that is the default after the pud has been introduced. Likewise a normal 64 bit process will use three levels instead of four. Only if a process runs out of the 4 tera bytes which can be addressed with a three level page table the fourth level is dynamically added. Then the process can use up to 8 peta byte.

[S390] dynamic page tables.

Add support for different number of page table levels dependent
on the highest address used for a process. This will cause a 31 bit
process to use a two level page table instead of the four level page
table that is the default after the pud has been introduced. Likewise
a normal 64 bit process will use three levels instead of four. Only
if a process runs out of the 4 tera bytes which can be addressed with
a three level page table the fourth level is dynamically added. Then
the process can use up to 8 peta byte.

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!
