2011-03-22adfs: add hexadecimal filetype suffix optionStuart Swales
ADFS (FileCore) storage complies with the RISC OS filetype specification (12 bits of file type information is stored in the file load address, rather than using a file extension). The existing driver largely ignores this information and does not present it to the end user. It is desirable that stored filetypes be made visible to the end user to facilitate a precise copy of data and metadata from a hard disc (or image thereof) into a RISC OS emulator (such as RPCEmu) or to a network share which can be accessed by real Acorn systems. This patch implements a per-mount filetype suffix option (use -o ftsuffix=1) to present any filetype as a ,xyz hexadecimal suffix on each file. This type suffix is compatible with that used by RISC OS systems that access network servers using NFS client software and by RPCemu's host filing system.

2011-03-22adfs: fix E+/F+ dir size > 2048 crashing kernelStuart Swales
Kernel crashes in fs/adfs module when accessing directories with a large number of objects on mounted Acorn ADFS E+/F+ format discs (or images) as the existing code writes off the end of the fixed array of struct buffer_head pointers. Additionally, each directory access that didn't crash would leak a buffer as nr_buffers was not adjusted correctly for E+/F+ discs (was always left as one less than required). The patch fixes this by allocating a dynamically-sized set of struct buffer_head pointers if necessary for the E+/F+ case (many directories still do in fact fit in 2048 bytes) and sets the correct nr_buffers so that all buffers are released. Addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26072 Tested by tar'ing the contents of my RISC PC's E+ format 20Gb HDD which contains a number of large directories that previously crashed the kernel.

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!
