linux-next: Tree for May 16

[Stephen Rothwell]

Hi all,

Changes since next-20080515:

The build bug in upstream is gone.

The i2c revert is no longer needed.  But it gained a trivial conflict due
to the fix.

The net tree lost a couple of conflicts.

The semaphore-removal tree needed three patches reverted because similar
patches were merged into upstream and the scsi-rc-fixes trees.

I have applied the following temporary patches for known build problems:

	"move of_device_get_modalias fo drivers/of" - the powerpc-next
tree broke sparc - this should be in the powerpc-next tree shortly

	"initcalls: Fix m68k build and possible buffer overflow" - the
compiler was generating calls to strlen on m68k (this required me to also
apply two other patches that Linus applied to his tree).  These three are
already in Linus' tree.

	"Fix various 8390 builds" - the net tree broke builds on various
architectures - hopefully this patch will go into the net tree shortly.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have created today's linux-next tree at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git
(tar balls and patches at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/sfr/linux-next/).  If you
are tracking the linux-next tree using git, you should not use "git pull"
to do so as that will try to merge the new linux-next release with the
old one.  You should use "git fetch" as mentioned in the FAQ on the wiki
(see below).

You can see which trees have been included by looking in the Next/Trees
file in the source.  There are also quilt-import.log and merge.log files
in the Next directory.  Between each merge, the tree was built with
a ppc64_defconfig for powerpc and an allmodconfig for x86_64. After the
final fixups, it is also built with powerpc allnoconfig,
44x_defconfig and allyesconfig and i386, sparc and sparc64 defconfig.

Below is a summary of the state of the merge.

We are up to 74 trees (counting Linus' and 13 trees of patches pending for
Linus' tree), more are welcome (even if they are currently empty).
Thanks to those who have contributed, and to those who haven't, please do.

Status of my local build tests will be at
http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/linux-next .  If maintainers want to give
advice about cross compilers/configs that work, we are always open to add
more builds.

Thanks to Jan Dittmer for adding the linux-next tree to his build tests
at http://l4x.org/k/ , the guys at http://test.kernel.org/ and Randy
Dunlap for doing many randconfig builds.

There is a wiki covering stuff to do with linux-next at
http://linux.f-seidel.de/linux-next/pmwiki/ .  Thanks to Frank Seidel.
