There are still a few things hanging around.

I have these queued:

aio-fix-buggy-put_ioctx-call-in-aio_complete-v2.patch
kexec-avoid-migration-of-already-disabled-irqs-ia64.patch
net-smc911x-match-up-spin-lock-unlock.patch
rtc-pcf8563-detect-polarity-of-century-bit-automatically.patch
alpha-fix-epoll-syscall-enumerations.patch
revert-blockdev-direct-io-back-to-2619-version.patch
scsi-sd-udev-accessing-an-uninitialized-scsi_disk-results-in-a-crash.patch
altix-more-acpi-prt-support.patch

Would you forward the x86-64 dma_noncoherent API build fix I posted? Anything that uses that API won't build on x86-64 without my [simple and obvious] patch.


- I have r8169-fix-a-race-between-pci-probe-and-dev_open.patch floating
about, but I forget its status.

I posted a preferred patch (which someone then noted need to use setup_timer), and am waiting for an "it works" response of some sort
