  • After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
    recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
    There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
    anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
    macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
    course of cleaning it up.

    To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
    removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

    Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
    arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
    allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
    configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
    introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
    by unnecessarily included header files).

  • Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion".
    Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept.

    The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core
    backing-dev congestion functions.

    This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion
    functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.

  • - ->releasepage() annotated (s/int/gfp_t), instances updated
    - missing gfp_t in fs/* added
    - fixed misannotation from the original sweep caught by bitwise checks:
    XFS used __nocast both for gfp_t and for flags used by XFS allocator.
    The latter left with unsigned int __nocast; we might want to add a
    different type for those but for now let's leave them alone. That,
    BTW, is a case when __nocast use had been actively confusing - it had
    been used in the same code for two different and similar types, with
    no way to catch misuses. Switch of gfp_t to bitwise had caught that
    immediately...

    One tricky bit is left alone to be dealt with later - mapping->flags is
    a mix of gfp_t and error indications. Left alone for now.

  • - added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t;

    - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly
    the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change
    generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with
    typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

  • 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!
