Al found a potential problem in epoll_create(), where the
file->private_data member was set after fd_install(). This is obviously
wrong since another thread might do a close() on that fd# before we set the
file->private_data member. This goes over 2.6.13 and passes a few basic
tests I've done here.
(akpm: snuck in a kzalloc() cleanup too)

This patch gets rid of some macro obfuscation from fs/eventpoll.c by
removing slab allocator wrappers and converting macros to static inline
functions.

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!
