  • do_each_thread() is rcu-safe, and all tasks which use this ->mm must sleep
    in wait_for_completion(&mm->core_done) at this point, so we can use RCU
    locks.

    Also, remove unneeded INIT_LIST_HEAD(new) before list_add(new, head).

  • Adjust the ELF-FDPIC binfmt driver to conform much more to the CodingStyle,
    silly though it may be.

    Further changes:

    (*) Drop the casts to long for addresses in kdebug() statements (they're
    unsigned long already).

    (*) Use extra variables to avoid expressions longer than 80 chars by splitting
    the statement into multiple statements and letting the compiler optimise
    them back together.

    (*) Eliminate duplicate call of ksize() when working out how much space was
    actually allocated for the stack.

    (*) Discard the commented-out load_shlib prototype and op pointer as this will
    not be supported in ELF-FDPIC for the foreseeable future.

  • Fix FDPIC compile errors.

    (akpm: we suspect it fixes a warning)

  • This is the fs/ part of the big kfree cleanup patch.

    Remove pointless checks for NULL prior to calling kfree() in fs/.

  • How is anon_rss initialized? In dup_mmap, and by mm_alloc's memset; but
    that's not so good if an mm_counter_t is a special type. And how is rss
    initialized? By set_mm_counter, all over the place. Come on, we just need to
    initialize them both at once by set_mm_counter in mm_init (which follows the
    memcpy when forking).

  • 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!
