c7c694d196 [AX.25]: Fix potencial memory hole.
If the AX.25 dialect chosen by the sysadmin is set to DAMA master / 3
(or DAMA slave / 2, if CONFIG_AX25_DAMA_SLAVE=n) ax25_kick() will fall
through the switch statement without calling ax25_send_iframe() or any
other function that would eventually free skbn thus leaking the packet.

Fix by restricting the sysctl inferface to allow only actually supported
AX.25 dialects.

The system administration mistake needed for this to happen is rather
unlikely, so this is an uncritical hole.

Coverity #651.

4595f25105 [AX.25]: Fix signed char bug
On architectures where the char type defaults to unsigned some of the
arithmetic in the AX.25 stack to fail, resulting in some packets being dropped
on receive.

3bf0ae7b57 [AX.25]: Add more PIDs
Add a few more PID definitions.  AX.25 PIDs are the equivalent to IP
protocol numbers.

6f74998e5c [AX.25]: Rename ax25_encapsulate to ax25_hard_header
Rename ax25_encapsulate to ax25_hard_header which these days more
accurately describes what the function is supposed to do.

baed16a7ff [AX.25]: Make asc2ax() thread-proof
Asc2ax was still using a static buffer for all invocations which isn't
exactly SMP-safe.  Change asc2ax to take an additional result buffer as
the argument.  Change all callers to provide such a buffer.

This one only really is a fix for ROSE and as per recent discussions
there's still much more to fix in ROSE ...

f2ccd8fa06 [NET]: Kill skb->real_dev
Bonding just wants the device before the skb_bond()
decapsulation occurs, so simply pass that original
device into packet_type->func() as an argument.

It remains to be seen whether we can use this same
exact thing to get rid of skb->input_dev as well.

01d7dd0e9f [AX25]: UID fixes
o Brown paperbag bug - ax25_findbyuid() was always returning a NULL pointer
   as the result.  Breaks ROSE completly and AX.25 if UID policy set to deny.

 o While the list structure of AX.25's UID to callsign mapping table was
   properly protected by a spinlock, it's elements were not refcounted
   resulting in a race between removal and usage of an element.

Also to get the _type_trans open coded sequence grouped, next changesets

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
