07563c711f [PATCH] EISA bus MODALIAS attributes support
Add modalias attribute support for the almost forgotten now EISA bus and
(at least some) EISA-aware modules.

The modalias entry looks like (for an 3c509 NIC):

 eisa:sTCM5093

and the in-module alias like:

 eisa:sTCM5093*

The patch moves struct eisa_device_id declaration from include/linux/eisa.h
to include/linux/mod_devicetable.h (so that the former now #includes the
latter), adds proper MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(eisa, ...) statements for all
drivers with EISA IDs I found (some drivers already have that DEVICE_TABLE
declared), and adds recognision of __mod_eisa_device_table to
scripts/mod/file2alias.c so that proper modules.alias will be generated.

There's no support for /lib/modules/$kver/modules.eisamap, as it's not used
by any existing tools, and because with in-kernel modalias mechanism those
maps are obsolete anyway.

The rationale for this patch is:

 a) to make EISA bus to act as other busses with modalias
    support, to unify driver loading

 b) to foget about EISA finally - with this patch, kernel
    (who still supports EISA) will be the only one who knows
    how to choose the necessary drivers for this bus ;)

97af50f60f [SCSI] aic7xxx/aic79xx: fix module removal path not to panic
In these drivers, scsi_remove_host() is called too late, at the point
it is called, the driver has already shut down too far to accept any
I/O that the shutdown might generate.  Any generated I/O actually
triggers a panic.

Fix this by calling scsi_remove_host() as early as possible and not
calling scsi_host_put() until just before we kfree the ahc_softc.

d6cbbad729 [SCSI] aic7xxx: clean up eisa support
- the eisa layer only probes when it's actually safe, no need for
   a driver option
 - store the id table directly in linux format instead of convering
   at runtime

dedd831081 [SCSI] aic7xxx: remove Linux 2.4 ifdefs
There's not much sense in sharing code anymore now that aic7xxx uses
various transport class facilities.

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!
