We only call pageout() for dirty pages, so this test is redundant.

[PATCH] oom-killer disable for iscsi/lvm2/multipath userland critical sections
iscsi/lvm2/multipath needs guaranteed protection from the oom-killer, so
make the magical value of -17 in /proc/<pid>/oom_adj defeat the oom-killer
altogether.
(akpm: we still need to document oom_adj and friends in
Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt!)

[PATCH] filemap_getpage can block when MAP_NONBLOCK specified
We will return NULL from filemap_getpage when a page does not exist in the
page cache and MAP_NONBLOCK is specified, here:
page = find_get_page(mapping, pgoff);
if (!page) {
if (nonblock)
return NULL;
goto no_cached_page;
}
But we forget to do so when the page in the cache is not uptodate. The
following could result in a blocking call:
/*
* Ok, found a page in the page cache, now we need to check
* that it's up-to-date.
*/
if (!PageUptodate(page))
goto page_not_uptodate;

[PATCH] SELinux: fix bug in Netlink message type detection
This patch fixes a bug in the SELinux Netlink message type detection code,
where the wrong constant was being used in a case statement. The incorrect
value is not valid for this class of object so it would not have been
reached, and fallen through to a default handler for all Netlink messages.

[PATCH] fix crash in entry.S restore_all
Fix the access-above-bottom-of-stack crash.
1. Allows to preserve the valueable optimization
2. Works for NMIs
3. Doesn't care whether or not there are more of the like instances
where the stack is left empty.
4. Seems to work for me without the crashes:)

[PATCH] re-export cancel_rearming_delayed_workqueue
This was unexported by Arjan because we have no current users.
However, during a conversion from tasklets to workqueues of the parisc led
functions, we ran across a case where this was needed. In particular, the
open coded equivalent of cancel_rearming_delayed_workqueue was implemented
incorrectly, which is, I think, all the evidence necessary that this is a
useful API.

The ARM dma_supported() is rather basic, and I don't think it takes into

From: Russell King <rmk+lkml@arm.linux.org.uk>
ARM wasn't raising a SIGBUS with a siginfo structure. Fix
__do_user_fault() to allow us to use it for SIGBUS conditions, and arrange
for the sigbus path to use this.
We need to prevent the siginfo code being called if we do not have a user
space context to call it, so consolidate the "user_mode()" tests.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
