  • The beast had a long and not very happy history. At one
    point, a friend (netdump) had asked that he open up a little.
    Well, the friend was long gone now, and the beast had
    this dangling piece hanging (netpoll_queue).

    It wasn't hard to stitch the netpoll_queue back in
    where it belonged and make everything tidy.

  • The beast was not always healthy. When it was sick,
    it tended to be laconic and not tell anyone the real problem.
    A few small changes had it telling the world about its
    problems, if they really wanted to hear.

  • The boot cmdline is parsed in parse_early_param() and
    parse_args(,unknown_bootoption).

    And __setup() is used in obsolete_checksetup().

    start_kernel()
    -> parse_args()
    -> unknown_bootoption()
    -> obsolete_checksetup()

    If __setup()'s callback (->setup_func()) returns 1 in
    obsolete_checksetup(), obsolete_checksetup() thinks a parameter was
    handled.

    If ->setup_func() returns 0, obsolete_checksetup() tries other
    ->setup_func(). If all ->setup_func() that matched a parameter returns 0,
    a parameter is seted to argv_init[].

    Then, when runing /sbin/init or init=app, argv_init[] is passed to the app.
    If the app doesn't ignore those arguments, it will warning and exit.

    This patch fixes a wrong usage of it, however fixes obvious one only.

  • 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!
