2005-10-21[PARISC] Specify level to fix binutils level promotion bugGrant Grundler
fixup.S needs to specify .level and use correct LDREG macro. New binutils has a bug where it doesn't "promote" from PA1.0 to PA1.1 correctly when using ",s" completer. remove use of __LP64__ in assembly.h and add some white space.

2005-10-21[PARISC] Fix the alloc_slabmgmt panicJames Bottomley
Fix the alloc_slabmgmt panic Hopefully this should also fix a lot of other intermittent kernel bugs. The problem has been around since 2.6.9-rc2-pa6 when we allowed floating point registers to be used in kernel code. The essence of the problem is that gcc prefers to use floating point for integer divides and multiples. Further, it can rely on the values in the no clobber fp regs being correct across a function call. Unfortunately, our task switch function only saves the integer no clobber registers, not the fp ones, so if gcc makes a function call to any function in the kernel which could sleep, the values it is relying on in any no clobber floating point register may be lost. In the case of alloc_slabmgmt, the value of the page offset is being stored in %fr12 across a call to kmem_getpages(), which sleeps if no pages are available. Thus, the offset can be trashed and the slab code can end up with a completely bogus address leading to corruption. Kudos to Randolph who came up with the program to trip this problem at will and thus allowed it to be tracked and fixed.

2005-10-21[PARISC] Make sure use of RFI conforms to PA 2.0 and 1.1 arch docsGrant Grundler
2.6.12-rc4-pa3 : first pass at making sure use of RFI conforms to PA 2.0 arch pages F-4 and F-5, PA 1.1 Arch page 3-19 and 3-20. The discussion revolves around all the rules for clearing PSW Q-bit. The hard part is meeting all the rules for "relied upon translation". .align directive is used to guarantee the critical sequence ends more than 8 instructions (32 bytes) from the end of page.

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!
