It built and booted on the first try for my Dell Latitude D820 laptop, Core2
T7200 x86_64 kernel. Now at about 5 hours of uptime. I guess I got lucky and my
stock .config doesn't trip over any of the issues others are hitting. I did
hit *one* problem:

Under 2.6.22-rc6-mm1, 'modprobe tpm_tis' did this:

[ 10.028000] tpm_tis 00:0f: 1.2 TPM (device-id 0x1001, rev-id 2)
[ 10.088000] tpm_tis 00:0f: Unable to request irq: 8 for probe

and the modprobe returned immediately. Under 23-rc1-mm1, the modprobe
takes a *long* time:

[ 23.787331] tpm_tis 00:0f: 1.2 TPM (device-id 0x1001, rev-id 2)
[ 23.787353] tpm0 (IRQ 3) handled a spurious interrupt
[ 143.803891] tpm_tis 00:0f: tpm_transmit: tpm_send: error -62
[ 143.803920] tpm0 (IRQ 3) handled a spurious interrupt
[ 263.736163] tpm_tis 00:0f: tpm_transmit: tpm_send: error -62
[ 383.668381] tpm_tis 00:0f: tpm_transmit: tpm_send: error -62
[ 385.667261] tpm_tis 00:0f: tpm_transmit: tpm_send: error -62

then it finally returns. I snuck in a few 'echo t > /proc/sysrq_trigger',
and it's always waiting here:

(tpm0 on 3 is new with 23-rc1-mm1. I have *no* idea why 22-rc6-mm1 tried to
put it on irq 8. Yes, kernel is currently tainted with nvidia module, but
at the time of the traceback listed above, I had not yet even gotten the module
built, so the kernel was untainted at that point).
