[patch 2/2] s390: some qeth driver fixes
From: Frank Pavlic <fpavlic@de.ibm.com>
- fixed kernel panic when using EDDP support in Layer 2 mode
- NULL pointer exception in qeth_set_offline fixed.
- setting EDDP in Layer 2 mode did not set NETIF_F_(SG/TSO)
flags when device became online.
- use sscanf for parsing and converting IPv4 addresses
from string to __u8 values.
- qeth_string_to_ipaddr6 fixed. in case of double colon
the converted IPv6 address out from the string was not correct
in previous implementation.

- Remove all CVS generated information like e.g. revision IDs from
drivers/s390 and include/asm-s390 (none present in arch/s390).
- Add newline at end of arch/s390/lib/Makefile to avoid diff message.

This is the drivers/s390/ part of the big kfree cleanup patch.
Remove pointless checks for NULL prior to calling kfree() in drivers/s390/.

[patch 10/10] s390: qeth bug fixes.
From: Frank Pavlic <pavlic@de.ibm.com>
qeth network driver related changes:
- due to OSA hardware changes in TCP Segmentation Offload
support we are able now to pack TSO packets too.
This fits perfectly in design of qeth buffer handling and
sending data respectively.
- remove skb_realloc_headroom from the sending path since
hard_header_len value provides enough headroom now.
- device recovery behaviour improvement
- bug fixed in Enhanced Device Driver Packing functionality

[patch 7/10] s390: qeth bug fixes.
From: Frank Pavlic <pavlic@de.ibm.com>
qeth network driver changes:
- Removed redundant code, use the same qeth_fill_buffer_frag
for TSO path either
- Using skb->frags solely is not correct since skb->data still
points to the beginning of the whole data, even when it is
a small portion we have to fill the qdio buffer with it.

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!
