History
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!

[SPARC64]: Add clocksource/clockevents support. I'd like to thank John Stul and others for helping me along the way. A lot of cleanups fell out of this. For example, the get_compare() tick_op was totally unused, so was deleted. And the most often used tick_op members were grouped together for cache-friendlyness. The sparc64 TSC is given to the kernel as a one-shot timer. tick_ops->init_timer() simply turns off the privileged bit in the tick register (when possible), and disables the interrupt by setting bit 63 in the compare register. The ->disable_irq() op also sets this bit. tick_ops->add_compare() is changed to: 1) Add the given delta to "tick" not to "compare" 2) Return a boolean which, if true, means that the tick value read after writing the compare value was found to have incremented past the initial tick value. This mirrors logic used in the HPET driver's ->next_event() method. Each tick_ops implementation also now provides a name string. And we feed this into the clocksource and clockevents layers.
