516793c61b [ARM] ARMv6: add CPU_HAS_ASID configuration
Presently, we check for the minimum ARM architecture that we're
building for to determine whether we need ASID support.  This is
wrong - if we're going to support a range of CPUs which include
ARMv6 or higher, we need the ASID.

Convert the checks to use a new configuration symbol, and arrange
for ARMv6 and higher CPU entries to select it.

8678c1f042 [ARM] Fix ASID version switch
Close a hole in the ASID version switch, particularly the following
scenario:

CPU0 MM PID			CPU1 MM PID
	idle
				  A	pid(A)
				  A	idle(lazy tlb)
		* new asid version triggered by B *
  B	pid(B)
  A	pid(A)
		* MM A gets new asid version *
  A	idle(lazy tlb)
				  A	pid(A)
		* CPU1 doesn't see the new ASID *

The result is that CPU1 continues running with the hardware set
for the original (stale) ASID value, but mm->context.id contains
the new ASID value.  The result is that the next MM fault on CPU1
updates the page table entries, but flush_tlb_page() fails due to
wrong ASID.

There is a related case with a threaded application is allocated
a new ASID on one CPU while another of its threads is running on
some different CPU.  This scenario is not fixed by this commit.

d6dd61c831 [PATCH] x86: PARAVIRT: add hooks to intercept mm creation and destruction
Add hooks to allow a paravirt implementation to track the lifetime of
an mm.  Paravirtualization requires three hooks, but only two are
needed in common code.  They are:

arch_dup_mmap, which is called when a new mmap is created at fork

arch_exit_mmap, which is called when the last process reference to an
  mm is dropped, which typically happens on exit and exec.

The third hook is activate_mm, which is called from the arch-specific
activate_mm() macro/function, and so doesn't need stub versions for
other architectures.  It's called when an mm is first used.

ff0daca525 [ARM] Add section support to ioremap
Allow section mappings to be setup using ioremap() and torn down
with iounmap().  This requires additional support in the MM
context switch to ensure that mappings are properly synchronised
when mapped in.

Based an original implementation by Deepak Saxena, reworked and
ARMv6 support added by rmk.

002547b4f8 [ARM] nommu: adjust headers for !MMU ARM systems
Majorily based on Hyok Choi's patches, this fixes up the asm-arm
header files for mmuless systems.  Over and above Hyok's patches:

- nommu.h merged into mmu.h (it's only a structure)
- nommu_context.h is essentially the same as mmu_context.h, but
  without the MM switching code.

so there's no point having separate files.  Also, in memory.h,
there's no point #ifndef'ing PHYS_OFFSET and END_MEM - both
CONFIG_DRAM_BASE and CONFIG_DRAM_SIZE will always be set by the
configuration scripts.

Other files have minor formatting changes, but are essentially
the same.  Hyok's original patches were signed off thusly:

8dc39b883e [ARM] Add linux/compiler.h includes where required
atomic.h, bitops.h and mmu_context.h are using likely/unlikely.
thread_info.h uses __attribute_const__.  Hence these files require
linux/compiler.h to be included.

7e5e6e9a50 [ARM SMP] Do not clear cpu_vm_mask for VIPT caches
Since we do not invalidate TLBs/caches on MM switches, we should not
clear the cpu_vm_mask for the CPU.

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!
