The ClearPageDirty() in there is wrong - it doesn't adjust the VM's dirty
memory accounting.  The system thinks it's full of dirty memory and stops.

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

It's not used anymore since ALSA switched to traditional devices and device
nodes in procfs are a bad idea in general..

Also update the docs.

From: rwhron@earthlink.net

It returns sizeof(compat_ulong_t) even if put_user() faulted.

(version 1.8.0 -> 1.9.0)

Update gsc_ps2 for recent changes.

Add two PA-RISC sysctls.

PA-RISC doesn't have PCI<->EISA bridges (they're all GSC<->EISA).

parisc64 machines should build parisc kernels.

arch/parisc, drivers/parisc and include/asm-parisc updates:

 - Fixups for struct timespec changes (James Bottomley)
 - Add CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER (Thibaut Varene)
 - Fix hpux ustat emulation (Helge Deller)
 - Add a ->remove operation to struct parisc_device (James Bottomley)
 - More work on modules (James Bottomley)
 - More unaligned instructions handled (LaMont Jones)
 - Fix byteswap assembly (Grant Grundler)
 - Allow ISA support to be selected (Matthew Wilcox)
 - Fix swapping (James Bottomley)

util-linux is waiting for this: it needs to update "struct loop_info64"
to add the encryption policy name.

via-agp.c has the agp_try_unsupported test reverted

full range of an "unsigned long" (sparc64).

tokenring drivers.

i think we want fast_poll to behave the same with HZ=100 and HZ=1000

following patch fixes some bogus additions to jiffies (w/o HZ beeing involved)
- appletalk/cops.c
- appletalk/ltpc.c
- declance.c
- sb1250-mac.c
- sk_mca.c
- via-rhine.c
against 2.5.73-bk

Below patch cleans the mkiss driver.  After the previous cleanup in
2.4.0-prerelease various code had become unreachable because nothing
was ever setting MKISS_DRIVER_MAGIC.  This fixes fixes an oops - the
mkiss pointer was potencially NULL.  And it also removes the
MOD_{INC,DEC}_USE_COUNT calls.

Alan, lemme know if you want me to cook a 2.4 patch also.

Patch from Jeroen Vreeken PE1RXQ.

Ralf

This converts the parallel network driver to use alloc_netdev instead
of doing it's own allocation.

Tested (load/unload) on 2.5.74

* Allow changing Wake On LAN when EEPROM disabled
* Change Log updated
* Version changed

* Bug fix: 82557 (with National PHY) timeout during init
