Grrh, don't do last minute changes without retesting.

Adapt arch/alpha as well, other archs need to
o add LDFLAGS_BLOB to arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile
o add .init.ramfs to arch/$(ARCH)/vmlinux.lds.S

See arch/i386/{Makefile,vmlinux.lds.S} for guidance ;)

Use ld to link the cpio archive into the image, build was broken
due to requiring a recent version of objcopy before, plus assorted
cleanups:

o Don't include arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile, export the needed arch-specific
  flags instead.
o Name the generated section consistently .init.ramfs everywhere.

This patch changes how media-change is detected to use a mechanism more
similar to what 'popular' OSes use.

The motive for this change is that more and more emulated-SCSI devices
(sbp2, usb-storage, etc) don't support START_STOP unless they need it.
Other OSes won't send a START_STOP unless the device reports NOT_READY,
indicating that it needs an explicit command to start up.

One could argue that these devices are out-of-spec, but they are so common
that they basically define the de facto spec.

Basically, any device that needs a START_STOP should still get it, but ones
that don't need it won't.

The i386 LDT code had it's own set of arch hooks (??_segments), I've
replaced most of them with the mmu context hooks in a previous patch.
The attached patch completes that change: replace release_segments with
destroy_context.

The patch is part of the -ac kernels in 2.4.  The patch breaks x86-64,
Andi Kleen promised to send you the corresponding
s/release_segments/destroy_context/ patch.

Cleaning simplified by descending down in aicasm when cleaning.

Fixed firmware build, someone made a spelling mistakei (aix -> aic).

No longer include Rules.make.

Made the *docs targets work after the restructuring of the kbuild files.

Fix cleaning up after make htmldocs, there are some directories
that needs to be deleted in that case.

This patch updates the p4-clockmod.c driver to correctly manage
HyperThreading-enabled Pentium IVs as well as those models which do
not support HyperThreading - thanks to Venkatesh Pallipadi for
explaining cpu_sibling_map to me. Additionally, an EXPORT_SYMBOL
was missing. (spotted by Marc-Christian Petersen - thanks!)

Update to the latest parport_gsc in the PA tree.

Some misc updates:
 - adapt our config.in changes to arch/parisc/Kconfig
 - general Makefile updaes for the new build system
 - remove asm-parisc/gsc.h in favour of asm-parisc/io.h
 - Alan-approved fix for the loff_t problem
 - Define POLLREMOVE like other architectures.
 - irq handling updates from Grant Grundler

x86 doesn't evaluate the argument to flush_dcache_page so this compilation
problem has gone overlooked:

SOM is the file format used for HPUX binaries.

This huge patch moves a bunch of drivers from arch/parisc/kernel to
drivers/parisc and adds some new drivers in drivers/parisc.

Some might argue that HPUX already has quite enough of a personality.

Build fixes, PA64 fixes, some new hpux syscalls, VFS fixes.

M68k: Remove obsolete cruft

Add Sun-3 DVMA debugging code (currently disabled, from Sam Creasey)

Zorro: trivial patch to use loff_t and not int (from Silvio Cesare
<silvio@qualys.com>)

Add Sun-3 VME support (by Sam Creasey):
  - Added VME version of the Sun-3 NCR5380 scsi driver.
  - Modified the Sun-3 dvma routines to support VME.
  - Added sun3_map_test() -- uses the ex_table to trap faults on VME mappings
    in order to determine if a card is present.  This seems a little hackish to
    be, but:
      1) All changes are entirely within Sun3-only code paths,
      2) netbsd, sunos, and mach all use this mechanism for VME probes anyway.

Update m68k for the change of xtime from struct timeval to struct timespec,
which has a higher resolution (ns vs. us), in 2.5.35.

Fix rwsemtrace() message

Add ElBox Computer FastATA 1200/4000/ZIV to the Zorro ID database (from
zorroutils)

General cleanup/updating of purely sun3/3x code (from Sam Creasey)
  - arch/m68k/sun3(x):
      o Cleaned up prom code slightly
      o Added reporting of prom revision in /proc/hardware
      o Removed some warnings
  - Use common idprom code for both Sun-3 and Sun-3x
  - Sun-3x idprom updates
  - drivers/scsi/sun3*: updated scsi drivers to reflect new struct scatterlist.

Sun-3 vectored interrupts update:
  - Add define for SUN3_INT_VECS
  - Let show_sun3_interrupts() report vectored ints on machines which have them

Z2ram: Add missing closing brace

Sun-3 SCSI updates (from Sam Creasey):
  - compensate for upstream block layer changes
  - use new Sun-3 ioremap()

M68k: add TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE to macros __[sg]et_tsk_thread_flag (from Roman
Zippel)

M68k: optimize stacked irq check (from Roman Zippel)

Remove duplicate `the' in Mac/m68k interrupt handling code

Sun-3 doc updates:
  - Add maintainer for Sun-3/3x
  - Fix Config.help for CONFIG_SUN{3/3x}

Add ioremap() support for Sun-3 and modify the Sun-3 LANCE and i82586 OBIO
Ethernet drivers to use it (from Sam Creasey)

Update Sam Creasey's email address

Make local function rs_read_proc() static in Amiga serial port driver (from
2.4.x).
