  • The conditions that cause these calls to MD_BUG are not kernel bugs, just
    oddities in what userspace is asking for.

    Also convert analyze_sbs to return void, and the value it returned was
    always 0.

  • There is a tiny race when de-registering an MD thread, in that the thread
    could disappear before it is set a SIGKILL, causing send_sig to have
    problems.

    This is most easily closed by holding tasklist_lock between enabling the
    thread to exit (setting ->run to NULL) and telling it to exit.

    (akpm: ick. Needs to use kthread API and stop using signals)

  • 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!
