* sk_g16: embedded ->priv
* sk_g16: fixed buggy check for signature (|| instead of &&, somebody
forgot to replace it when inverting the test).

Additional:
* add free_netdev
Rework de620 driver to new dynamic allocation
Originally by Al Viro.
* switched de620 to dynamic allocation
* de620: embedded ->priv
* de620: fixed IO before request_region()
The call to dev_get() in wanrouter_device_new_if is racy and redundant and should
be removed. The later 'register_netdev()' does the same test internally and will
return the appropriate error if the name already exists.
This patch is against 2.6.0-test6.
Resend of earlier patch because it was ignored, or missed.
[PATCH] wan/lmc -- convert to new network device model
Resend of LMC driver patch for 2.6.0-test6
* do proper probing
* allocate network device with alloc_netdev
* use standard pci_id's instead of local defines
* use standard PCI device interface to find and remove devices.

Fix subtle fork() race that Ingo noticed.
We must not mark the process TASK_STOPPED early, because
that might allow a signal to wake it up before we actually
got to the "wake_up_forked_process()" state. Total confusion
would happen.
Make wake_up_forked_process() verify the new world order.

[PATCH] ppc64: Add missing section definition
From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
For a laugh we moved the BSS and our world exploded. Turns out we zero
from __bss_start to _end. Add __bss_stop to our section definitions so
we can use it instead.

[PATCH] don't clear i_sb
From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
JFS currently clears i_sb in some error pathes which can make the
core kernel OOPS because it may never be NULL. Noticed because some
IBM people try to "fix" the core kernel for it now..

[PATCH] ia32 sched_clock() deadlock fix
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>,
Voyager is getting odd deadlocks due to the taking of xtime_lock() in
sched_clock()->get_jiffies_64().
I had this patch queued up to fix a different deadlock, which occurs when we
relax the requirement that TSC's be synchronised across CPUs. But it will
fix James' deadlock too.

[PATCH] JFS fix for NFS on little-endian systems
From: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>
After Jose debugged the problem down to the routine jfs_get_parent, we
were able to find the problem. I believe it only affects users of
NFS-exported JFS file systems on big-endian hardware.
The problem was a missing le32_to_cpu macro. The patch also fixes a
return code to be more consistent other implementations of get_parent.

[PATCH] Fix PnP BIOS call
The recent escd fix I have made corrects a thinko in the PnPBIOS code and it
turns out that faults from calling /proc/pnp/bus/escd were probably not caused
by BIOS bugs.
