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!

[PATCH] pcmcia: add some Documentation Add some information useful for PCMCIA device driver authors to Documentation/pcmcia/, and reference it in dmesg in case of hash mismatches. Also add a reference to pcmciautils to Documentation/Changes. With recent changes, you don't need to concern yourself with pcmcia-cs even if you have PCMCIA hardware, so the example above the list needed to be adapted as well.

[PATCH] oprofile: report anonymous region samples The below patch passes samples from anonymous regions to userspace instead of just dropping them. This provides the support needed for reporting anonymous-region code samples (today: basic accumulated results; later: Java and other dynamically compiled code). As this changes the format, an upgrade to the just-released 0.9 release of the userspace tools is required.
