2005-09-09[PATCH] matroxfb: read MGA PInS data on PowerPCIan Romanick
This updates the matroxfb code so that it can find the PInS data embedded in the BIOS on PowerPC cards. The process for finding the data is different on OpenFirmware cards than on x86 cards, and the code for doing so was missing. After patching, building, installing, and booting a kernel, you should grep for "PInS" in /var/log/messages. You should see two messages in the log: PInS data found at offset XXXXX PInS memtype = X On the GXT135p card I get "31168" and "5". The first value is irrelevant, but it's presence lets me know that the PInS data was actually found. On a GXT130p, the second value should be 3. Since I don't have access to that hardware, if someone can verify that, I will submit a follow-on patch that rips out all the memtype parameter stuff.

2005-09-05[PATCH] I2C: Kill i2c_algorithm.id (5/7)Jean Delvare
Merge the algorithm id part (16 upper bits) of the i2c adapters ids into the definition of the adapters ids directly. After that, we don't need to OR both ids together for each i2c_adapter structure. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-06-21[PATCH] I2C: Kill address ranges in non-sensors i2c chip driversJean Delvare
Some months ago, you killed the address ranges mechanism from all sensors i2c chip drivers (both the module parameters and the in-code address lists). I think it was a very good move, as the ranges can easily be replaced by individual addresses, and this allowed for significant cleanups in the i2c core (let alone the impressive size shrink for all these drivers). Unfortunately you did not do the same for non-sensors i2c chip drivers. These need the address ranges even less, so we could get rid of the ranges here as well for another significant i2c core cleanup. Here comes a patch which does just that. Since the process is exactly the same as what you did for the other drivers set already, I did not split this one in parts. A documentation update is included. The change saves 308 bytes in the i2c core, and an average 1382 bytes for chip drivers which use I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD, 126 bytes for those which do not. This change is required if we want to merge the sensors and non-sensors i2c code (and we want to do this).

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!
