README: Update version number reference When 4.0 is released, the README should reflect the new numbering. Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

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!

README: Use `X' and `x' consistently The text referred to `XX', when only a single `X' actually existed, so this commit changes it to just `X'; a similar change has been made for `xx'. Also, `N' was used when it would have been more consistent to use `X' again, so this commit replaces `N' with `X'. This commit also chooses to leave `X' as the placeholder for the current version of the source, and then makes `x' the placeholder for any version number; fortunately nothing really depends on this subtlety being understood. Because `x' is already being used when discussing version numbers, this commit changes such filename references as `xxx.rej' to `some-file-name.rej'.

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.
