5e7b83ffc6 [PATCH] uml: fix syscall table by including $(SUBARCH)'s one, for i386
Split the i386 entry.S files into entry.S and syscall_table.S which is
included in the previous one (so actually there is no difference between them)
and use the syscall_table.S in the UML build, instead of tracking by hand the
syscall table changes (which is inherently error-prone).

We must only insert the right #defines to inject the changes we need from the
i386 syscall table (for instance some different function names); also, we
don't implement some i386 syscalls, as ioperm(), nor some TLS-related ones
(yet to provide).

48c88211a6 [PATCH] x86: entry.S trap return fixes
do_debug() and do_int3() return void.

This patch fixes the CONFIG_KPROBES variant of do_int3() to return void too
and adjusts entry.S accordingly.

a879cbbb34 x86: make traps on 'iret' be debuggable in user space
This makes a trap on the 'iret' that returns us to user space
cause a nice clean SIGSEGV, instead of just a hard (and silent)
exit.

That way a debugger can actually try to see what happened, and
we also properly notify everybody who might be interested about
us being gone.

This loses the error code, but tells the debugger what happened
with ILL_BADSTK in the siginfo.

5df240826c [PATCH] fix crash in entry.S restore_all
Fix the access-above-bottom-of-stack crash.

1. Allows to preserve the valueable optimization

2. Works for NMIs

3.  Doesn't care whether or not there are more of the like instances
   where the stack is left empty.

4. Seems to work for me without the crashes:) 

(akpm: this is still under discussion, although I _think_ it's OK.  You might
want to hold off)

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!
