485fb2c998 [IrDA]: Use alloc_skb() in IrDA TX path
As pointed out by Christoph Hellwig, dev_alloc_skb() is not intended to be
used for allocating TX sk_buff. The IrDA stack was exclusively calling
dev_alloc_skb() on the TX path, and this patch fixes that.

f6c90b71a3 [NET]: Fix ipx/econet/appletalk/irda ioctl crashes
Fix kernel oopses whenever somebody issues compatible ioctl on AppleTalk,
Econet, IPX or IRDA socket.  For AppleTalk/Econet/IRDA it restores state
in which these sockets were before compat_ioctl was introduced to the socket
ops, for IPX it implements support for 4 ioctls which were not implemented
before - as these ioctls use structures which match between 32bit and 64bit
userspace, no special code is needed, just call 64bit ioctl handler.

b5e5fa5e09 [NET]: Add a dev_ioctl() fallback to sock_ioctl()
Currently all network protocols need to call dev_ioctl as the default
fallback in their ioctl implementations.  This patch adds a fallback
to dev_ioctl to sock_ioctl if the protocol returned -ENOIOCTLCMD.
This way all the procotol ioctl handlers can be simplified and we don't
need to export dev_ioctl.

90ddc4f047 [NET]: move struct proto_ops to const
I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share
a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default
linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at
least)

This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const,
so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing.

This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure
if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly)

I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make
them const.

This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and
speedup some socket system calls.

c1cbe4b7ad [NET]: Avoid atomic xchg() for non-error case
It also looks like there were 2 places where the test on sk_err was
missing from the event wait logic (in sk_stream_wait_connect and
sk_stream_wait_memory), while the rest of the sock_error() users look
to be doing the right thing.  This version of the patch fixes those,
and cleans up a few places that were testing ->sk_err directly.

c752f0739f [TCP]: Move the tcp sock states to net/tcp_states.h
Lots of places just needs the states, not even linux/tcp.h, where this
enum was, needs it.

This speeds up development of the refactorings as less sources are
rebuilt when things get moved from net/tcp.h.

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!
