2005-10-28[PATCH] PATCH: usb-storage: use kthread APIAlan Stern
This patch is originally from Alan Stern (as569). It has been rediffed against a current tree. This patch converts usb-storage to use the kthread API for creating its control and scanning threads. The new code doesn't use kthread_stop because the threads need (or will need in the future) to exit asynchronously.

2005-10-28[PATCH] PATCH: usb-storage: allocate separate sense bufferAlan Stern
This patch is from Alan Stern (as560). It has been rediffed against a current tree. This patch allocates a separate buffer for usb-storage to use when auto-sensing. Up to now we have been using the sense buffer embedded in a scsi_cmnd struct, which is dangerous on hosts that (a) don't do cache-coherent DMA or (b) have DMA alignment restrictions.

2005-09-08[PATCH] USB Storage: remove dependency on SCSI-provided serial/tag numberMatthew Dharm
This patch started life as as531 from Alan Stern. It has been rediffed against the latest tree. The SCSI people have deprecated the use of scsi_cmnd.serial_number for anything other than printk. Worse than that, the SCSI core doesn't always increment the number (when the error handler is running, for example). So this patch creates a locally-stored value for use in bulk-only tags. The net result is a simplification, since we no longer have to save & restore the serial_number value while autosensing.

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!
