2005-07-11[IA64] assign_irq_vector() should not panicKenji Kaneshige
Current assign_irq_vector() will panic if interrupt vectors is running out. But I think how to handle the case of lack of interrupt vectors should be handled by the caller of this function. For example, some PCI devices can raise the interrupt signal via both MSI and I/O APIC. So even if the driver for these device fails to allocate a vector for MSI, the driver still has a chance to use I/O APIC based interrupt. But currently there is no chance for these driver to use I/O APIC based interrupt because kernel will panic when assign_irq_vector() fails to allocate interrupt vector. The following patch changes assign_irq_vector() for ia64 to return -ENOSPC on error instead of panic (as i386 and x86_64 versions do).

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!
