- added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t;
- replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly
the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change
generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with
typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

Fix another bug in dm-raid1.c that the dirty region may stay in or be moved
to clean list and freed while in use.
It happens as follows:
CPU0 CPU1
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
rh_dec()
if (atomic_dec_and_test(pending))
<the region is still marked dirty>
rh_inc()
if the region is clean
mark the region dirty
and remove from clean list
mark the region clean
and move to clean list
atomic_inc(pending)
At this stage, the region is in clean list and will be mistakenly reclaimed
by rh_update_states() later.

This code was never designed to handle more than one instance of do_work()
running at once.

Set the target's split_io field when building a dm-mirror device so
incoming bios won't span the mirror's internal regions. Without this,
regions can be accessed while not holding correct locks and data corruption
is possible.

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!
