docs: blockdev: convert to ReST Rename the blockdev documentation files to ReST, add an index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html output via the Sphinx build system. The drbd sub-directory contains some graphs and data flows. Add those too to the documentation. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>

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!

ata: pata_parport: add driver (PARIDE replacement) The pata_parport is a libata-based replacement of the old PARIDE subsystem - driver for parallel port IDE devices. It uses the original paride low-level protocol drivers but does not need the high-level drivers (pd, pcd, pf, pt, pg). The IDE devices behind parallel port adapters are handled by the ATA layer. This will allow paride and its high-level drivers to be removed. Unfortunately, libata drivers cannot sleep so pata_parport claims parport before activating the ata host and keeps it claimed (and protocol connected) until the ata host is removed. This means that no devices can be chained (neither other pata_parport devices nor a printer). paride and pata_parport are mutually exclusive because the compiled protocol drivers are incompatible. Tested with: - Imation SuperDisk LS-120 and HP C4381A (EPAT) - Freecom Parallel CD (FRPW) - Toshiba Mobile CD-RW 2793008 w/Freecom Parallel Cable rev.903 (FRIQ) - Backpack CD-RW 222011 and CD-RW 19350 (BPCK6) The following bugs in low-level protocol drivers were found and will be fixed later: Note: EPP-32 mode is buggy in EPAT - and also in all other protocol drivers - they don't handle non-multiple-of-4 block transfers correctly. This causes problems with LS-120 drive. There is also another bug in EPAT: EPP modes don't work unless a 4-bit or 8-bit mode is used first (probably some initialization missing?). Once the device is initialized, EPP works until power cycle. So after device power on, you have to: echo "parport0 epat 0" >/sys/bus/pata_parport/new_device echo pata_parport.0 >/sys/bus/pata_parport/delete_device echo "parport0 epat 4" >/sys/bus/pata_parport/new_device (autoprobe will initialize correctly as it tries the slowest modes first but you'll get the broken EPP-32 mode) Note: EPP modes are buggy in FRPW, only modes 0 and 1 work.
