2018-07-05	autofs: rename 'autofs' module back to 'autofs4'	Linus Torvalds
	It turns out that systemd has a bug: it wants to load the autofs module early because of some initialization ordering with udev, and it doesn't do that correctly. Everywhere else it does the proper "look up module name" that does the proper alias resolution, but in that early code, it just uses a hardcoded "autofs4" for the module name. The result of that is that as of commit a2225d931f75 ("autofs: remove left-over autofs4 stubs"), you get systemd[1]: Failed to insert module 'autofs4': No such file or directory in the system logs, and a lack of module loading. All this despite the fact that we had very clearly marked 'autofs4' as an alias for this module. What's so ridiculous about this is that literally everything else does the module alias handling correctly, including really old versions of systemd (that just used 'modprobe' to do this), and even all the other systemd module loading code. Only that special systemd early module load code is broken, hardcoding the module names for not just 'autofs4', but also "ipv6", "unix", "ip_tables" and "virtio_rng". Very annoying. Instead of creating an _additional_ separate compatibility 'autofs4' module, just rely on the fact that everybody else gets this right, and just call the module 'autofs4' for compatibility reasons, with 'autofs' as the alias name. That will allow the systemd people to fix their bugs, adding the proper alias handling, and maybe even fix the name of the module to be just "autofs" (so that they can _test_ the alias handling). And eventually, we can revert this silly compatibility hack.

2010-10-05	autofs3: move to drivers/staging	Arnd Bergmann
	Nobody appears to be interested in fixing autofs3 bugs any more and it uses the BKL, which is going away. Move this to staging for retirement. Unless someone complains until 2.6.38, we can remove it for good. The include/linux/auto_fs.h header file is still used by autofs4, so it remains in place.

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds
	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!
