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!

* all over the place, we put the common stuff here. Reasons for patching: in-kernel
* module-loader, virtual-to-physical patch-list, McKinley Errata 9 workaround, and gate
* shared library. Undoubtedly, some of these reasons will disappear and others will
* be added over time.

[IA64] remove per-cpu ia64_phys_stacked_size_p8 It's not efficient to use a per-cpu variable just to store how many physical stack register a cpu has. Ever since the incarnation of ia64 up till upcoming Montecito processor, that variable has "glued" to 96. Having a variable in memory means that the kernel is burning an extra cacheline access on every syscall and kernel exit path. Such "static" value is better served with the instruction patching utility exists today. Convert ia64_phys_stacked_size_p8 into dynamic insn patching. This also has a pleasant side effect of eliminating access to per-cpu area while psr.ic=0 in the kernel exit path. (fixable for per-cpu DTC work, but why bother?) There are some concerns with the default value that the instruc- tion encoded in the kernel image. It shouldn't be concerned. The reasons are: (1) cpu_init() is called at CPU initialization. In there, we find out physical stack register size from PAL and patch two instructions in kernel exit code. The code in question can not be executed before the patching is done. (2) current implementation stores zero in ia64_phys_stacked_size_p8, and that's what the current kernel exit path loads the value with. With the new code, it is equivalent that we store reg size 96 in ia64_phys_stacked_size_p8, thus creating a better safety net. Given (1) above can never fail, having (2) is just a bonus. All in all, this patch allow one less memory reference in the kernel exit path, thus reducing syscall and interrupt return latency; and avoid polluting potential useful data in the CPU cache.
