2007-10-16ide: remove "idex=dma" kernel parameterBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
It has been obsoleted since 1 Nov 2004, is valid only when used together with "ide=nodma" kernel parameter (which makes no sense) and only for aec62xx, cmd64x, cs5220, generic, hpt366, sl82c105, tc86c001 and triflex host drivers.

2007-03-03ide: make legacy IDE VLB modules check for the "probe" kernel params (v2)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
Legacy IDE VLB host drivers didn't check for "probe" options when compiled as modules, which was obviously wrong as we don't want module to poke at random I/O ports by simply loading it. Fix it by adding "probe" module param to legacy IDE VLB host drivers. v2: * don't obsolete old "ide0=dtc2278/ht6560b/qd65xx/ali14xx/umc8672" IDE driver options yet (per Alan Cox's request) and enhance documentation Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
2007-03-03ide: remove some obsoleted kernel params (v2)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
Remove * "hdx=serialize" * "idex=noautotune" * "idex=autotune" kernel params, they have been obsoleted for ages. "idex=serialize", "hdx=noautotune" and "hdx=autotune" are still available so there is no funcionality loss caused by this patch. v2: * fix CONFIG_BLK_DEV_4DRIVES=y build broken by version 1 of the patch [ /me wearing brown paper bag ] Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

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!
