[PATCH] Put back tcp_timer_bug_msg[] symbol export.
This wrecks the ipv6 modular build for a lot of people.
In fact, since I always build ipv6 modular I am surprised
I never hit this. My best guess is that my compiler is
optimizing the reference away, but that can never be
depended upon and the symbol export really is needed.
[TCP]: Put back tcp_timer_bug_msg[] symbol export.
It is needed for tcp_reset_xmit_timer(), which is invoked by
tcp_prequeue() which is invoked from tcp_ipv6.c

While working on the saa7110 driver I found a problem with the way
various video drivers (found on Zoran-based boards) prepare i2c messages
to be used by i2c_transfer. The drivers improperly copy the i2c client
flags as the message flags, while both sets are mostly unrelated. The
net effect in this case is to trigger an I2C block read instead of the
expected I2C block write. The fix is simply not to pass any flag,
because none are needed.
I think this patch qualifies hands down as a "critical bug fix" to be
included in whatever bug-fix-only trees exist these days. As far as I
can see, all Zoran-based boards are broken in 2.6.11 without this patch.

[PATCH] cramfs: small stat(2) fix
When I stat(2) a device node on a cramfs, the st_blocks field is bogus
(it's derived from the size field which in this case holds the major/minor
numbers). This makes du(1) output completely wrong.

[PATCH] fix amd64 2.6.11 oops on modprobe (saa7110)
This is a rewrite of the saa7110_write_block function, which was plain
broken in the case where the underlying adapter supports I2C_FUNC_I2C.
It also includes related fixes which ensure that different parts of the
driver agree on the number of registers the chip has.

Some ACPI-related changes were recently made to i8042 discovery for ia64.
Unfortunately this broke a significant number of Dell laptops due to their
having incorrect BIOS tables.
So, for now, arrange for the new code to be ia64-only.
[PATCH] Fix for trivial fix for 2.6.11 raid6 compilation on ppc w/ Altivec
Here's a patch that will work for both PPC and PPC64. The proper way to
fix this in mainline is to merge -mm's cpu_has_feature patch, but for
the stable 2.6.11-series, this much less intrusive (i.e. just the pure
bugfix, not the cleanup part).
