Pavel Emelyanov 5cd204550b Deprecate find_task_by_pid()
There are some places that are known to operate on tasks'
global pids only:

* the rest_init() call (called on boot)
* the kgdb's getthread
* the create_kthread() (since the kthread is run in init ns)

So use the find_task_by_pid_ns(..., &init_pid_ns) there
and schedule the find_task_by_pid for removal.

Mark Fasheh 52f7c21b61 ocfs2: Move /sys/o2cb to /sys/fs/o2cb
/sys/fs is where we really want file system specific sysfs objects.

Ocfs2-tools has been updated to look in /sys/fs/o2cb. We can maintain
backwards compatibility with old ocfs2-tools by using a sysfs symlink. After
some time (2 years), the symlink can be safely removed. This patch also adds
documentation to make it easier for people to figure out what /sys/fs/o2cb
is used for.

Stephen Hemminger 548c36e983 sk98lin: remove obsolete driver
All the hardware supported by this driver is now supported
by the skge driver. The last remaining issue was support for ancient
dual port SysKonnect fiber boards, and the skge driver now does these
correctly (p.s. sk98lin was always broken on these old dual port
boards anyway).
