  • If an error occurs on opcontrol start, the event and per cpu buffers
    are released. If later opcontrol shutdown is called then the free
    function will be called again to free buffers that no longer
    exist. This results in a kernel oops. The following changes
    prevent the call to delete buffers that don't exist.

  • 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.

  • - Move capable() from sched.h to capability.h;

    - Use where capable() is used
    (in include/, block/, ipc/, kernel/, a few drivers/,
    mm/, security/, & sound/;
    many more drivers/ to go)

  • 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!
