  • Bitmap functions for the minix filesystem and the ext2 filesystem except
    ext2_set_bit_atomic() and ext2_clear_bit_atomic() do not require the atomic
    guarantees.

    But these are defined by using atomic bit operations on several architectures.
    (cris, frv, h8300, ia64, m32r, m68k, m68knommu, mips, s390, sh, sh64, sparc,
    sparc64, v850, and xtensa)

    This patch switches to non atomic bit operation.

  • The ia64-version of fls() never worked as intended (the bitnumbering
    was off by 1 and fls(0) was undefined). This patch fixes the problem
    by using a popcnt-based fls(), which on McKinley-derived cores is
    slightly faster than both ia64_fls() and generic_fls(). The resulting
    code, however, is bigger (7-8 bundles instead of about 3 bundles).
    Also switch ia64_popcnt() to __builtin_popcountl() for GCC v3.4 or
    newer since the compiler can predicate that and schedule it better.

    Thanks to Simon Derr and Matt Mackall for tracking down this bug.

  • 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!
