  • Update kernel-parameters.txt to point users to the authoritative comment
    for name_to_dev_t. In addition, updates other places where some
    name_to_dev_t behavior was discussed. All other references to root=
    appear to be for explicit sample usage or just side comments when
    discussing other kernel parameters.

  • This patch removes some code that became dead code after the ATARI_ACSI
    removal.

    It also indirectly fixes the following bug introduced by
    commit c2bcf3b8978c291e1b7f6499475c8403a259d4d6:

    config ATARI_SLM
    tristate "Atari SLM laser printer support"
    - depends on ATARI && ATARI_ACSI!=n
    + depends on ATARI

  • Please, please now delete the Atari CONFIG_STRAM_SWAP code. It may be
    excellent and ingenious code, but its reference to swap_vfsmnt betrays that it
    hasn't been built since 2.5.1 (four years old come December), it's delving
    deep into matters which are the preserve of core mm code, its only purpose is
    to give the more conscientious mm guys an anxiety attack from time to time;
    yet we keep on breaking it more and more.

    If you want to use RAM for swap, then if the MTD driver does not already
    provide just what you need, I'm sure David could be persuaded to add the
    extra. But you'd also like to be able to allocate extents of that swap for
    other use: we can give you a core interface for that if you need. But unbuilt
    for four years suggests to me that there's no need at all.

    I cannot swear the patch below won't break your build, but believe so.

  • 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!
