Linux 2.0.4 (and a small patch, d*mn)

I made 2.0.4 - it contains some minor fixes, and I hoped it would fix the sound
stuff, but I already got my first patch for a missing semi-colon in
sb_common.c. Damn, I hate it when that happens. As you can probably all guess,
I don't use the sound support at all - I consider it nice but not relevant to
what I do, and the way the config is set up I can't really test it without
going bananas so I have to rely on Hannu and you others out there.

Anyway, 2.0.4 looks largish, but a lot of that is just ppc-specific updates
that don't touch anything else (so that I later will have an easier time
keeping in sync). There are various minor driver updates in there too, along
with a few very small POSIX.1 patches.

If you have problems with the sound driver, you'll get a rather obvious parse
error compiling it - just add a ";" at the end of the appropriate line. Sorry
about that, I was hoping that these silly problems would be gone by now.

Thanks to all testing it out,

Linus
