edb5e46fc0 [BRIDGE]: limited ethtool support
Add limited ethtool support to bridge to allow disabling
features.

Note: if underlying device does not support a feature (like checksum
offload), then the bridge device won't inherit it.

4433f420e5 [BRIDGE]: handle speed detection after carrier changes
Speed of a interface may not be available until carrier
is detected in the case of autonegotiation. To get the correct value
we need to recheck speed after carrier event.  But the check needs to
be done in a context that is similar to normal ethtool interface (can sleep).

Also, delay check for 1ms to try avoid any carrier bounce transitions.

4505a3ef72 [BRIDGE]: allow setting hardware address of bridge pseudo-dev
Some people are using bridging to hide multiple machines from an ISP
that restricts by MAC address. So in that case allow the bridge mac
address to be set to any of the existing interfaces.  I don't want to
allow any arbitrary value and confuse STP.

81d35307dd [BRIDGE]: set features based on enslaved devices
Make features of the bridge pseudo-device be a subset of the underlying
devices.  Motivated by Xen and others who use bridging to do failover.

Linus Torvalds
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!
