00977a59b9 [PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 6
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

5cbded585d [PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() calls
Run this:

	#!/bin/sh
	for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
	  echo "De-casting $f..."
	  perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
	done

And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.

And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

37e0333c68 [SCSI] SCSI osst: add error handling to module init, sysfs
- check all sysfs-related return codes, and propagate them back to callers

- properly unwind errors in osst_probe(), init_osst().  This fixes a
  leak that occured if scsi driver registration failed, and fixes an
  oops if sysfs creation returned an error.

(unrelated)
- kzalloc() cleanup in new_tape_buf()

45223fd77c [SCSI] Signdness issue in drivers/scsi/osst.c
another signdness warning from gcc 4.1

drivers/scsi/osst.c:5154: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false

The problem is that blk is defined as unsigned, but all usages of it are
normal int cases.  osst_get_frame_position() and osst_get_sector() return ints
and can return negative values.  If blk stays an unsigned int, the error check
is useless.

75e1fcc0b1 [PATCH] vfs: add lock owner argument to flush operation
Pass the POSIX lock owner ID to the flush operation.

This is useful for filesystems which don't want to store any locking state
in inode->i_flock but want to handle locking/unlocking POSIX locks
internally.  FUSE is one such filesystem but I think it possible that some
network filesystems would need this also.

Also add a flag to indicate that a POSIX locking request was generated by
close(), so filesystems using the above feature won't send an extra locking
request in this case.

Ok, so here is my first take at satisfying this request.
Be warned, that beyond compiling, and checking that the new module
doesn't immediately blow up, there hasn't yet been a lot of testing.

But this should allow you to comment on the changes, and move forward
with dropping scsi_request from the kernel code.

5e3c34c1e9 [SCSI] Remove devfs support from the SCSI subsystem
As devfs has been disabled from the kernel tree for a number of months
now (5 to be exact), here's a patch against 2.6.16-rc1-git1 that removes
support for it from the SCSI subsystem.

The patch also removes the scsi_disk devfs_name field as it's no longer
needed.

This should eliminate (at least in the mid layer) to make numeric
assumptions about any of the enumeration variables.  As a side effect,
it will also make all the messages consistent and line us up nicely for
the error logging strategy (if it ever shows itself again).

f9101210e7 [PATCH] vfree and kfree cleanup in drivers/
This patch does a full cleanup of 'NULL checks before vfree', and a partial
cleanup of calls to kfree for all of drivers/ - the kfree bit is partial in
that I only did the files that also had vfree calls in them.  The patch
also gets rid of some redundant (void *) casts of pointers being passed to
[vk]free, and a some tiny whitespace corrections also crept in.

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!
