Subject: linux-next: clean up time (pass 1)

Hi all,

Looking through the trees currently included in linux-next, I get the
feeling that some of them may be obsolete.

Here is a list of tree that had no commits in them at the openning of the
previous two merge windows:

linux-spec
pxa
galak
ceph
configfs
jfs
squashfs
vfs-scale
kconfig
ide
powertools
swiotlb
input-mt
lsm
embedded
firmware
backlight
uclinux
hdlc
lblnet
bdev
cputime
jc_docs
nommu
audit
irda
i7300_edac
gpio
xen
sfi
asm-generic
hwpoison
sysctl
slabh
scsi-post-merge

I have no problem with including trees that are only used now and then,
but if any of the above have fullfilled their need, please let me know
and I will remove them. (In some cases being in the above list may just
mean that the proicess is not working very well and things are not being
included in linux-next before the merge window opens.)

This definitely is a dead branch. It was a temporary testing branch
preparing for wide-scale update and the whole thing has been in
mainline for a very long time now. Sorry about not updating it
earlier.

Thank you.

This is a surprise ... I'm sure I had commits in my squashfs
linux-next tree at the opening of the last but one merge window...

Linux 2.6.38 released 14 Mar 2011

$ git log --pretty="%ci %s"
...
2011-02-28 18:43:48 +0000 Squashfs: wrap squashfs_mount() definition
2011-02-28 18:35:44 +0000 Squashfs: xz_wrapper doesn't need to include squashfs_
2011-02-28 18:35:36 +0000 Squashfs: Update documentation to include compression
2011-02-28 18:35:28 +0000 Squashfs: Update Kconfig help text to include xz compr
2011-02-28 18:34:24 +0000 Squashfs: add compression options support to xz decomp
2011-02-28 18:21:59 +0000 Squashfs: extend decompressor framework to handle comp

plus or minus 1 day (and timezone jitter :-)):

$ git rev-list --no-merges next/20110314/origin..next/20110314/squashfs | wc -l
0
$ git rev-list --no-merges next/20110315/origin..next/20110315/squashfs | wc -l
0
$ git rev-list --no-merges next/20110316/origin..next/20110316/squashfs | wc -l
6

It doesn't really matter, it was just a quick metric to choose a subset
of trees to look at.

Bugger, maybe I forgot to push, though I thought I did :-)
