Nothing very interesting here, which is just how I like it. Various random

semantics for the new SR-IOV VF netlink interface. And even that wasn't
a _big_ patch by any means.

So 2.6.34 is out, and the merge window is thus officially open. As usual,
I probably won't do any real pulls for a day or two, in the (probably
futile) hope that we'll have more people running plain 2.6.34 for a while.
But you can certainly start sending me pull requests.

Go forth and test,

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the ibmcam stopped working. And since my test machine is a security cam server, that's not good.

The good news is that it was originally reported as a bug in Fedora, because I saw it first in one of their pre-beta upgrades. There is a bunch of related information at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=588900
which hopefully will be useful.

Built with the Fedora 2.6.33.3-85.fc13.x86_64 config, plus make oldconfig.

Otherwise looks functional, ran light testing on it, but really had to fall back.
