Change prototypes for __chk_user_ptr and __chk_io_ptr to take const
void* instead of void*, so that code can pass "const void *" to them.
(Right now sparse does not warn about passing const void* to void*
functions, but that is a separate bug that I believe Josh is working on,
and once sparse does check this, the changed prototypes will be
necessary.)

The kernel doesn't compile with GCC <3.2, do not allow it to succeed if GCC
3.0.x or 3.1.x are used.

The lock annotation macros __acquires, __releases, __acquire, and __release
all currently throw away the lock expression passed as an argument. Now
that sparse can parse __context__ and __attribute__((context)) with a
context expression, pass the lock expression down to sparse as the context
expression. This requires a version of sparse from GIT commit
37475a6c1c3e66219e68d912d5eb833f4098fd72 or later.

Currently, __acquire and __release take a lock expression, but __cond_lock
takes only a condition, not the lock acquired if the expression evaluates
to true. Change __cond_lock to accept a lock expression, and change all
the callers to pass in a lock expression.

Those 1500 warnings can be a bit of a pain. Add a config option to shut them
up.

There's one scsi driver which doesn't compile due to weird __VA_ARGS__ tricks
and the rather useful scsi/sd.c is currently getting an ICE. None of the new
SAS code compiles, due to extensive use of anonymous unions. The V4L guys are
very good at exploiting the gcc-2.95.x macro expansion bug (_why_ does each
driver need to implement its own debug macros?) and various people keep on
sneaking in anonymous unions, which are rather nice.
Plus anonymous unions are rather useful.

Add a deprecated_for_modules macro that allows symbols to be deprecated only

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!
