ata stuff

Tejun helpfully posted a bunch of clashing patches for all the ACPI stuff :) You might be better off dropping and getting a resend after the dust settles.

That LED trigger patch seems technically correct, but also filling a need that few have. IMO it craps up the hot path for little gain.

The other stuff should be in my mbox to be reviewed and applied

For netdev tree

8139too: needs review w/ attention paid to historical usage, and I haven't had time for months. Not sure its right.

sundance: I really think this is phy-dependent, and should not be universally applied. In the standard MII PHY, phy 0 is a ghost of another id.

forcedeth: TX NAPI wants more than that minimum effort

other stuff: in mbox


ppp_generic-fix-lockdep-warning.patch

Jeff, I guess. It's not clear that this is correct.

Usually PPP is paulus -> jgarzik -> linus, but you can bounce it straight to me if Paulus doesn't respond

ide-cs-recognize-2gb-compactflash-from-transcend.patch

Dominik is busy. Will probably re-review and send these direct to Linus.

I really wish "add ID" patches would not get buried in this tree.

Certainly they are trivial enough to go straight to Linus, but it would be nice to go through subsystem maintainers, some of whom have also picked up these new-id patches.

We don't send new-id patches for PCI drivers to GregKH, and we should similarly /not/ direct PCMCIA id patches to the PCMCIA bus tree. It's far more scalable to send new-id patches to the maintainers dealing with the subsystem under which each driver falls (net, scsi, IDE, ...)


pci-device-ensure-sysdata-initialised-v2.patch

This is for Jeff's git-pciseg.patch which is sort-of on hold at present.

HP was kind enough to dig up another machine for me. Other machines are appearing with x86 PCI domains (aka PCI segments) these days, so I need to get this into upstream.
