0b7f22aab4 [IPV4]: Prevent oops when printing martian source
In some cases, we may be generating packets with a source address that
qualifies as martian. This can happen when we're in the middle of setting
up the network, and netfilter decides to reject a packet with an RST.
The IPv4 routing code would try to print a warning and oops, because
locally generated packets do not have a valid skb->mac.raw pointer
at this point.

bb1d23b026 [IPV4]: Bug fix in rt_check_expire()
- rt_check_expire() fixes (an overflow occured if size of the hash
  was >= 65536)

reminder of the bugfix:

The rt_check_expire() has a serious problem on machines with large
route caches, and a standard HZ value of 1000.

With default values, ie ip_rt_gc_interval = 60*HZ = 60000 ;

the loop count :

     for (t = ip_rt_gc_interval << rt_hash_log; t >= 0;


overflows (t is a 31 bit value) as soon rt_hash_log is >= 16  (65536
slots in route cache hash table).

In this case, rt_check_expire() does nothing at all

22c047ccbc [NET]: Hashed spinlocks in net/ipv4/route.c
- Locking abstraction
- Spinlocks moved out of rt hash table : Less memory (50%) used by rt 
  hash table. it's a win even on UP.
- Sizing of spinlocks table depends on NR_CPUS

2c2910a401 [IPV4]: Snmpv2 Mib IP counter ipInAddrErrors support
I followed Thomas' proposal to see every martian destination as a case
where the ipInAddrErrors counter has to be incremented. There are
two advantages by doing so: (1) The relation between the ipInReceive
counter and all the other ipInXXX counters is more accurate in the
case the RTN_UNICAST code check fails and (2) it makes the code in
ip_route_input_slow easier.

b6544c0b4c [NETLINK]: Correctly set NLM_F_MULTI without checking the pid
This patch rectifies some rtnetlink message builders that derive the
flags from the pid. It is now explicit like the other cases
which get it right. Also fixes half a dozen dumpers which did not
set NLM_F_MULTI at all.

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!
