734004072e CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the AX25 protocol
Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from
the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds.

Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id().

Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id().  In some places it makes more
sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be
addressed by later patches.

This lockdep report shows that ax25_route_lock is taken for reading in
softirq context, and for writing in process context with BHs enabled.
So, to make this safe, all write_locks in ax25_route.c are changed to
_bh versions.

9a32144e9d [PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 7
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

c9266b99e2 [AX.25]: Mark all kmalloc users __must_check
The recent fix 0506d4068b made obvious that
error values were not being propagated through the AX.25 stack.  To help
with that this patch marks all kmalloc users in the AX.25, NETROM and
ROSE stacks as __must_check.

f75268cd6c [AX25]: Make ax2asc thread-proof
Ax2asc was still using a static buffer for all invocations which isn't
exactly SMP-safe.  Change ax2asc to take an additional result buffer as
the argument.  Change all callers to provide such a buffer.

01d7dd0e9f [AX25]: UID fixes
o Brown paperbag bug - ax25_findbyuid() was always returning a NULL pointer
   as the result.  Breaks ROSE completly and AX.25 if UID policy set to deny.

 o While the list structure of AX.25's UID to callsign mapping table was
   properly protected by a spinlock, it's elements were not refcounted
   resulting in a race between removal and usage of an element.

1da177e4c3 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!
