Several drivers miss filling in the access_align field.  So this patch has
them fill it in.

df529338d9 [PATCH] intelfb: fix accel detection when changing video modes
Changed the tests in intelfb_set_par to check also the parameter
var.accel_flags.  If null, do nothing about ring buffers.

Now, the DirectFB i830 driver could nicely work even if intelfb is hw
accelerated.  Just change the /etc/fb.modes file to disable console hw
acceleration when starting a DirectFB app.

5a3b5899f1 [PATCH] intelfbdrv naming fix
Can't use this fancy name, because it's used to generate a sysfs filename:

kobject_register failed for Intel(R) 830M/845G/852GM/855GM/865G/915G

346e399b2a [PATCH] intelfb section fix
On Nov 16 2004 a change to intelfbdrv.c was commited (as part of 0.9.2 it
looks like) that added __initdata to all of the module param variables that
seems to create the opportunity for an oops.

I've recently been chasing an OOPS
(http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=111552250920370&w=2) I
created by reading every file on the /sys file system and I've traced it
back to this code in the intelfbdrv.  Though I had root privs in my initial
problem report, it turns out they are un-necessary to generate the oops -
all you've got to do is "cat /sys/module/intelfb/parameters/mode" enough
times and eventually it will oops.

This is because sysfs automatically exports all module_param declarations
to the sysfs file system..  which means those variables can be dynamically
evaluated at any later time, which of course means marking them __initdata
is a bad idea ;)..  when they happen to be char *'s it is an especially bad
idea ;).

Applying the patch below clears up the OOPS for me.

14c6f52f60 [PATCH] intelfb: Remove intelfbdrv.h
Ingo Oeser noticed that all that intelfbdrv.h contains are prototypes for
static functions - and such prototypes don't belong into header files.

This patch therefore removes drivers/video/intelfb/intelfbdrv.h and moves the
prototypes to intelfbdrv.c .

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!
