  • The MCA bus has a few "integrated" functions, which are effectively virtual
    slots on the bus. The problem is that these special functions don't have
    dedicated pos IDs, so we have to manufacture ids for them outside the pos
    space ... and these ids can't be matched by the standard matching function,
    so add a special registration that requests a list of pos ids or a particular
    integrated function.

  • There's a bug in the MCA bus matching algorithm in that it promotes from
    signed short to int before comparing with the actual id and does sign
    extension on anything > 0x7fff (which means that pos ids > 0x7fff never get
    correctly matched).

  • I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of
    sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h
    from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h
    by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
    this disentangling (patch to follow later).
    However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.

    In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
    possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
    i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real
    patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only
    adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any
    hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts
    will pick it up again in the next round.

  • I didn't find any possible modular usage of mca_find_device_by_slot in
    the kernel, and this patch therefore removes the EXPORT_SYMBOL.

    This patch should be safe since mca-legacy is nothing drivers should
    move to.

  • 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!
