*	[PATCH] devfs: Remove the gendisk devfs_name field as it's no longer needed	Greg Kroah-Hartman	2006-06-26	1	-1/+0
\| \| \| \| \| \| \|	And remove the now unneeded number field. Also fixes all drivers that set these fields. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
*	[PATCH] drivers/block: Use ARRAY_SIZE macro	Tobias Klauser	2006-01-08	1	-3/+3
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Use ARRAY_SIZE macro instead of sizeof(x)/sizeof(x[0]) and remove a duplicate of ARRAY_SIZE. Some trailing whitespaces are also removed. drivers/block/acsi* has been left out as it's marked BROKEN.

*	[PATCH] Add block_device_operations.getgeo block device method	Christoph Hellwig	2006-01-08	1	-12/+13
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting the start sector. This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a ->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now. [1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard sector size.

*	[PATCH] drivers/block: fix-up schedule_timeout() usage	Nishanth Aravamudan	2005-09-10	1	-4/+2
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Use schedule_timeout_{un,}interruptible() instead of set_current_state()/schedule_timeout() to reduce kernel size.

*	[PATCH] janitor: block/xd: replace schedule_timeout() with ↵	Nishanth Aravamudan	2005-09-10	1	-9/+6
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	msleep()/msleep_interruptible() Use msleep() or msleep_interruptible() [as appropriate] instead of schedule_timeout() to gurantee the task delays as expected. As a result changed the units of the timeout variable from jiffies to msecs.

	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!
