35bc37a0e0 [PATCH] IPMI: fix for handling bad ACPI data
If the ACPI register bit width is zero (an invalid value) assume it is the
default spacing.  This avoids some coredumps on invalid data and makes some
systems work that have broken ACPI data.

9206880198 [PATCH] IPMI: fix for handling bad IPMI DMI data
Ignore the bottom bit of the base address from the DMI data.  It is
supposed to be set to 1 if it is I/O space.  Few systems do this, but this
enables the ones that do set it to work properly.

e49332bd12 [PATCH] misc verify_area cleanups
There were still a few comments left refering to verify_area, and two
functions, verify_area_skas & verify_area_tt that just wrap corresponding
access_ok_skas & access_ok_tt functions, just like verify_area does for
access_ok - deprecate those.

There was also a few places that still used verify_area in commented-out
code, fix those up to use access_ok.

After applying this one there should not be anything left but finally
removing verify_area completely, which will happen after a kernel release
or two.

696f9486d0 [PATCH] hangcheck-timer: Update to 0.9.0.
I recently realized that the in-kernel copy of hangcheck-timer was quite
stale.  Here's the latest.  It adds support for s390, ppc64, and ia64 too.

67639deb09 [IA64] Altix system controller event handling
The following is an update of the patch I sent yesterday
(3/9/05) incorporating suggestions from Christoph Hellwig and
Andreas Schwab.  It allows Altix and Altix-like systems to
handle environmental events generated by the system controllers,
and should apply on top of Jack Steiner's patch of 3/1/05 ("New
chipset support for SN platform") and Mark Goodwin's patch of
3/8/05 ("Altix SN topology support for new chipsets and pci
topology").

0c541b4406 [PATCH] ppc32: Fix AGP and sleep again
My previous patch that added sleep support for uninorth-agp and some AGP
"off" stuff in radeonfb and aty128fb is breaking some configs.  More
specifically, it has problems with rage128 setups since the DRI code for
these in X doesn't properly re-enable AGP on wakeup or console switch
(unlike the radeon DRM).

This patch fixes the problem for pmac once for all by using a different
approach.  The AGP driver "registers" special suspend/resume callbacks with
some arch code that the fbdev's can later on call to suspend and resume
AGP, making sure it's resumed back in the same state it was when suspended.
 This is platform specific for now.  It would be too complicated to try to
do a generic implementation of this at this point due to all sort of weird
things going on with AGP on other architectures.  We'll re-work that whole
problem cleanly once we finally merge fbdev's and DRI.

In the meantime, please apply this patch which brings back some r128 based
laptops into working condition as far as system sleep is concerned.

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!
