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?

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.

This patch adds the Intel ESB2 DID's to the i2c-i801.c and Kconfig files for
I2C support.

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!
