Grant Grundler	3499495205	[PARISC] Use work queue in LED/LCD driver instead of tasklet. 2.6.12-rc1-pa6 use work queue in LED/LCD driver instead of tasklet. Main advantage is it allows use of msleep() in the led_LCD_driver to "atomically" perform two MMIO writes (CMD, then DATA). Lead to nice cleanup of the main led_work_func() and led_LCD_driver().

[PARISC] Use work queue in LED/LCD driver instead of tasklet.

2.6.12-rc1-pa6 use work queue in LED/LCD driver instead of tasklet.

Main advantage is it allows use of msleep() in the led_LCD_driver to
"atomically" perform two MMIO writes (CMD, then DATA).
Lead to nice cleanup of the main led_work_func() and led_LCD_driver().
Kudos to David for being persistent.

[IPV4]: Replace __in_dev_get with __in_dev_get_rcu/rtnl

The following patch renames __in_dev_get() to __in_dev_get_rtnl() and
introduces __in_dev_get_rcu() to cover the second case.

1) RCU with refcnt should use in_dev_get().
2) RCU without refcnt should use __in_dev_get_rcu().
3) All others must hold RTNL and use __in_dev_get_rtnl().

There is one exception in net/ipv4/route.c which is in fact a pre-existing
race condition.  I've marked it as such so that we remember to fix it.

This patch is based on suggestions and prior work by Suzanne Wood and
Paul McKenney.

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!
