* IDE: Report errors during drive reset back to user spaceElias Oltmanns2008-07-161-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Make sure that each error condition during the execution of an HDIO_DRIVE_RESET ioctl is actually reported to the calling process. Also, unify the exit path of reset_pollfunc() when returning ide_stopped since the need of ->port_ops->reset_poll() to be treated specially has vanished (way back, it seems).

| | | | | | | | | | | Alter the entry for HDIO_DRIVE_RESET in Documentation/ioctl/hdio.txt to reflect a functional change in the driver. Besides, the entry has been inaccurate before.

* Fix "can not" in Documentation and KconfigMatt LaPlante2006-10-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Randy brought it to my attention that in proper english "can not" should always be written "cannot". I donot see any reason to argue, even if I mightnot understand why this rule exists. This patch fixes "can not" in several Documentation files as well as three Kconfigs.

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!
