2005-04-18[PATCH] I2C: Fix incorrect sysfs file permissions in it87 and via686a driversJean Delvare
The it87 and via686a hardware monitoring drivers each create a sysfs file named "alarms" in R/W mode, while they should really create it in read-only mode. Since we don't provide a store function for these files, write attempts to these files will do something undefined (I guess) and bad (I am sure). My own try resulted in a locked terminal (where I attempted the write) and a 100% CPU load until next reboot. As a side note, wouldn't it make sense to check, when creating sysfs files, that readable files have a non-NULL show method, and writable files have a non-NULL store method? I know drivers are not supposed to do stupid things, but there is already a BUG_ON for several conditions in sysfs_create_file, so maybe we could add two more?

2005-04-18[PATCH] I2C: via686a cleanupsJean Delvare
Here comes a small cleanup patch for the via686a driver. I noticed the following two non-fatal problems: 1* The device parent is explicitely set, but it's not needed because the i2c core will do as the client is registered. 2* snprintf is used where strlcpy would suffice. Fixing them brings the via686a driver in line with what other similar drivers do. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

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!
