79befd0c08 [PATCH] oom-killer disable for iscsi/lvm2/multipath userland critical sections
iscsi/lvm2/multipath needs guaranteed protection from the oom-killer, so
make the magical value of -17 in /proc/<pid>/oom_adj defeat the oom-killer
altogether.

(akpm: we still need to document oom_adj and friends in
Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt!)

81ddef77bb [PATCH] re-export cancel_rearming_delayed_workqueue
This was unexported by Arjan because we have no current users.

However, during a conversion from tasklets to workqueues of the parisc led
functions, we ran across a case where this was needed.  In particular, the
open coded equivalent of cancel_rearming_delayed_workqueue was implemented
incorrectly, which is, I think, all the evidence necessary that this is a
useful API.

7a228aaa87 [PATCH] arm: add comment about dma_supported()
)


From: Russell King <rmk+lkml@arm.linux.org.uk>

The ARM dma_supported() is rather basic, and I don't think it takes into
account everything that it should do (eg, whether the mask agrees with what
we'd return for GFP_DMA allocations).  Note this.

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!
