d2d1acdb6a VLAN: kill_vid is only useful for VLAN filtering devices
The interface for network device VLAN extension was confusing.
The kill_vid function is only really useful for devices that do
hardware filtering. Devices that only do VLAN receiption without
filtering were being forced to provide the hook, and there were
bugs in those devices.

Many drivers had kill_vid routine that called vlan_group_set_device, with
NULL, but that is done already.

7562f876cd [NET]: Rework dev_base via list_head (v3)
Cleanup of dev_base list use, with the aim to simplify making device
list per-namespace. In almost every occasion, use of dev_base variable
and dev->next pointer could be easily replaced by for_each_netdev
loop. A few most complicated places were converted to using
first_netdev()/next_netdev().

3ff50b7997 [NET]: cleanup extra semicolons
Spring cleaning time...

There seems to be a lot of places in the network code that have
extra bogus semicolons after conditionals.  Most commonly is a
bogus semicolon after: switch() { }

5c15bdec5c [VLAN]: Avoid a 4-order allocation.
This patch splits the vlan_group struct into a multi-allocated struct. On
x86_64, the size of the original struct is a little more than 32KB, causing
a 4-order allocation, which is prune to problems caused by buddy-system
external fragmentation conditions.

I couldn't just use vmalloc() because vfree() cannot be called in the
softirq context of the RCU callback.

6c753c3d3b [VLAN]: Fix link state propagation
When the queue of the underlying device is stopped at initialization time
or the device is marked "not present", the state will be propagated to the
vlan device and never change. Based on an analysis by Patrick McHardy.

5dd8d1e9eb [PATCH] lockdep: annotate vlan net device as being a special class
vlan network devices have devices nesting below it, and are a special
"super class" of normal network devices; split their locks off into a
separate class since they always nest.

ddd7bf9fe4 [VLAN]: translate IF_OPER_DORMANT to netif_dormant_on()
this patch adds support to the VLAN driver to translate IF_OPER_DORMANT of the
underlying device to netif_dormant_on(). Beside clean state forwarding, this
allows running independant userspace supplicants on both the real device and
the stacked VLAN. It depends on my RFC2863 patch.

f4637b55ba [VLAN]: Fix early vlan adding leads to not functional device
OK, I can see what's happening here. eth0 doesn't detect link-up until
after a few seconds, so when the vlan interface is opened immediately
after eth0 has been opened, it inherits the link-down state. Subsequently
the vlan interface is never properly activated and are thus unable to
transmit any packets.

dev->state bits are not supposed to be manipulated directly. Something
similar is probably needed for the netif_device_present() bit, although
I don't know how this is meant to work for a virtual device.

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!
