4661e3eace [SCSI] advansys driver: limp along on x86
Let people enable the advansys driver on x86-32, even though it's broken
on other architectures due to missing DMA mapping infrastructure.

It's used by Jeffrey Phillips Freeman <jeffreyfreeman@syncleus.com> and
possibly others.

c9475cb0c3 [PATCH] kfree cleanup: drivers/scsi
This is the drivers/scsi/ part of the big kfree cleanup patch.

Remove pointless checks for NULL prior to calling kfree() in drivers/scsi/.

b21a413851 [SCSI] add global timeout to the scsi mid-layer
There are certain rogue devices (and the aic7xxx driver) that return
BUSY or QUEUE_FULL forever.  This code will apply a global timeout (of
the total number of retries times the per command timer) to a given
command.  If it is exceeded, the command is completed regardless of its
state.

The patch also removes the unused field in the command: timeout and
timeout_total.

This solves the problem of detecting an endless loop in the mid-layer
because of BUSY/QUEUE_FULL bouncing, but will not recover the device.
In the aic7xxx case, the driver can be recovered by sending a bus reset,
so possibly this should be tied into the error handler?

12413197ee [SCSI] remove scsi_set_device
scsi_add_host is the proper place to set the device, but people copy
the scsi_set_device usage from older drivers again and again.

note that this leaves some legacy drivers like qlogicisp/qlogicfc
without pci association in sysfs, but they're scheduled to go away soon
anyway.

c6295cdf65 [PATCH] scsi: remove meaningless scsi_cmnd->serial_number_at_timeout field
scsi_cmnd->serial_number_at_timeout doesn't serve any purpose
anymore.  All serial_number == serial_number_at_timeout tests
are always true in abort callbacks.  Kill the field.  Also, as
->pid always equals ->serial_number and ->serial_number
doesn't have any special meaning anymore, update comments
above ->serial_number accordingly.  Once we remove all uses of
this field from all lldd's, this field should go.

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!
