  • Most of the stuff from kernel/sched.c was moved to kernel/sched/core.c long time
    back and the comments/Documentation never got updated.

    I figured it out when I was going through sched-domains.txt and so thought of
    fixing it globally.

    I haven't crossed check if the stuff that is referenced in sched/core.c by all
    these files is still present and hasn't changed as that wasn't the motive behind
    this patch.

  • In recent months, two different network projects erroneously
    strayed down the rw_lock path. Update the Documentation
    based upon comments by Eric Dumazet and Paul E. McKenney in
    those threads.

    Further updates await somebody else with more expertise.

    Changes:
    - Merged with extensive content by Stephen Hemminger.
    - Fix one of the comments by Linus Torvalds.

  • Checkpatch will throw an error if code doesn't use the correct initializers
    for static spinlocks:

    ERROR: Use of SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED is deprecated: see Documentation/spinlocks.txt

    This is fine, but Documentation/spinlocks.txt isn't very clear on how to
    _use_ the new initializers for static variables. To save people time in the
    future, I added two small examples of how to fix old-style static
    initializers to be more lockdep friendly.

  • Static initialization of spinlocks is preferable to dynamic initialization
    when it is practical. This patch updates documentation for consistency
    with comments in spinlock_types.h.

  • 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!
