c8923c6b85 [NETFILTER]: Fix OOPSes on machines with discontiguous cpu numbering.
Original patch by Harald Welte, with feedback from Herbert Xu
and testing by Sébastien Bernard.

EBTABLES, ARP tables, and IP/IP6 tables all assume that cpus
are numbered linearly.  That is not necessarily true.

This patch fixes that up by calculating the largest possible
cpu number, and allocating enough per-cpu structure space given
that.

ab4060e858 [BRIDGE]: fix race on bridge del if
This fixes the RCU race on bridge delete interface.  Basically,
the network device has to be detached from the bridge in the first
step (pre-RCU), rather than later. At that point, no more bridge traffic
will come in, and the other code will not think that network device
is part of a bridge.

This should also fix the XEN test problems.

ba89966c19 [NET]: use __read_mostly on kmem_cache_t , DEFINE_SNMP_STAT pointers
This patch puts mostly read only data in the right section
(read_mostly), to help sharing of these data between CPUS without
memory ping pongs.

On one of my production machine, tcp_statistics was sitting in a
heavily modified cache line, so *every* SNMP update had to force a
reload.

6869c4d8e0 [NETFILTER]: reduce netfilter sk_buff enlargement
As discussed at netconf'05, we're trying to save every bit in sk_buff.
The patch below makes sk_buff 8 bytes smaller.  I did some basic
testing on my notebook and it seems to work.

The only real in-tree user of nfcache was IPVS, who only needs a
single bit.  Unfortunately I couldn't find some other free bit in
sk_buff to stuff that bit into, so I introduced a separate field for
them.  Maybe the IPVS guys can resolve that to further save space.

Initially I wanted to shrink pkt_type to three bits (PACKET_HOST and
alike are only 6 values defined), but unfortunately the bluetooth code
overloads pkt_type :(

The conntrack-event-api (out-of-tree) uses nfcache, but Rusty just
came up with a way how to do it without any skb fields, so it's safe
to remove it.

- remove all never-implemented 'nfcache' code
- don't have ipvs code abuse 'nfcache' field. currently get's their own
  compile-conditional skb->ipvs_property field.  IPVS maintainers can
  decide to move this bit elswhere, but nfcache needs to die.
- remove skb->nfcache field to save 4 bytes
- move skb->nfctinfo into three unused bits to save further 4 bytes

6a2e9b738c [NET]: move config options out to individual protocols
Move the protocol specific config options out to the specific protocols.
With this change net/Kconfig now starts to become readable and serve as a
good basis for further re-structuring.

The menu structure is left almost intact, except that indention is
fixed in most cases. Most visible are the INET changes where several
"depends on INET" are replaced with a single ifdef INET / endif pair.

Several new files were created to accomplish this change - they are
small but serve the purpose that config options are now distributed
out where they belongs.

9666dae510 [NETFILTER]: Fix connection tracking bug in 2.6.12
In 2.6.12 we started dropping the conntrack reference when a packet
leaves the IP layer. This broke connection tracking on a bridge,
because bridge-netfilter defers calling some NF_IP_* hooks to the bridge
layer for locally generated packets going out a bridge, where the
conntrack reference is no longer available. This patch keeps the
reference in this case as a temporary solution, long term we will
remove the defered hook calling. No attempt is made to drop the
reference in the bridge-code when it is no longer needed, tc actions
could already have sent the packet anywhere.

7ce54e3f42 [BRIDGE]: receive path optimization
This improves the bridge local receive path by avoiding going
through another softirq.  The bridge receive path is already being called
from a netif_receive_skb() there is no point in going through another
receiveq round trip.

Recursion is limited because bridge can never be a port of a bridge
so handle_bridge() always returns.

Linus Torvalds
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!
