2007-01-22PCI: rework Documentation/pci.txtGrant Grundler
Rewrite Documentation/pci.txt: o restructure document to match how API is used when writing init code. o update to reflect changes in struct pci_driver function pointers. o removed language on "new style vs old style" device discovery. "Old style" is now deprecated. Don't use it. Left description in to document existing driver behaviors. o add section "Legacy I/O Port free driver" by Kenji Kaneshige http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/11/22/25 (renamed to "pci_enable_device_bars() and Legacy I/O Port space") o add "MMIO space and write posting" section to help avoid common pitfall when converting drivers from IO Port space to MMIO space. Orignally posted http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/27/24 o many typo/grammer/spelling corrections from Randy Dunlap o two more spelling corrections from Stephan Richter o fix CodingStyle as per Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Grant Grundler <grundler@parisc-linux.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

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!
