This simple check was first suggested by Andrew Morton.  Pretty basic -
whines if a task exits with a nonzero preempt_count value.

I put an identical check in the 2.4 preempt-kernel patch and - sure
enough - it was found that XFS essentially disables preemption as it
destroys data structures containing locks without first unlocking.  The
SGI folks are working on that.

Anyhow, its a quick and clean solution to debugging potential problems.
Patch is against 2.5.7, please apply.

Hopefully this is all of them..

fix the build on ia32.

dev->rmem_{start,end} in skfp and smctr drivers.

Updated the CREDITS, Config.help, Config.in, and Makefile to be up to date
with the last round of USB changes.

  
   - An oopsable bug affecting unlink of interrupt
     transfers. Fix mirrors one done ages ago for ISO.
     (Original patch by Matt Hughes)
   - Better cleanup on init failure (Matthew Frederickson)
   - fixes the problem Stuart reported, where interrupt urbs
     couldn't be unlinked from their completion handlers, and it
     also makes OHCI return the correct status code for async
     unlink requests (-EINPROGRESS not zero).

added safe_serial driver
tweaks to the driver done by greg@kroah.com to get things to work on 2.5

added tiusb driver
some tweaks to the driver done by greg@kroah.com

The patch ensures that uhci.c doesn't use urb->status after the
completion callback if it doesn't need to.

fix the "small packet" problem and debug messages cleanup

removed CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV #ifdefs in the driver.

one more step closer to killing off ether=

once eth0 was found) - it is long since anyone shipped or built kernels
with all the ISA drivers compiled in.

This change will eliminate the need for adding "ether=...." at the boot 
prompt for a lot of users who build their own kernels and have multiple
ISA ethercards at standard (i.e. probed) I/O addresses.

Also got sick of counting zeros, so did a struct init cleanup,
i.e. {1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,9}  -> {one:1, nine:9}

based net cards and hence these should be moved into the dev->priv
for these cards.

This patch adds rmem_start and rmem_end to dev->priv in 8390.h, and does:

        s/dev->rmem_/ei_local.rmem_/g   on all 8390 shared mem drivers.

the rmem_end field to store an I/O port address in.  As rmem_end is going
away, this does a s/rmem_end/mem_start/g since mem_start is otherwise 
unused in sb1000.

(probably as a result of copying skeleton or similar).  Removed this as 
a step in the goal to remove rmem_start/end from netdev struct entirely.

dev->last_rx equal to jiffies.

Whitespace cleanup

Update a few stale comments

Bump version to 4.2.8-k1, use EXPORT_NO_SYMBOLS, minor changes
to ensure that reported link information is always correct, 
remove magic numbers in calls to memset.

ProcFS code updates, check for page boundaries.

change_mtu cleanup.  Allows frame sizes up to 2k on the 82542
instead of limiting the MTU to 1500, so that the 82542 can be 
used with software 802.1q VLANs.
