Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!

+/* Rusty: This is my (non-mathematically-inclined) understanding of
+ this algorithm. The `average rate' in jiffies becomes your initial
+ amount of credit `credit' and the most credit you can ever have
+ `credit_cap'. The `peak rate' becomes the cost of passing the
+ test, `cost'.
+
+ `prev' tracks the last packet hit: you gain one credit per jiffy.
+ If you get credit balance more than this, the extra credit is
+ discarded. Every time the match passes, you lose `cost' credits;
+ if you don't have that many, the test fails.
+
+ See Alexey's formal explanation in net/sched/sch_tbf.c.
+
+ To get the maxmum range, we multiply by this factor (ie. you get N
+ credits per jiffy). We want to allow a rate as low as 1 per day
+ (slowest userspace tool allows), which means
