[PATCH] thread information block
syscall latency improvement
* There's now an asm/thread_info.h header file with the basic structure
def and asm offsets in it.
* There's now a linux/thread_info.h header file which includes the asm
version and wraps some bitops calls to make convenience functions for
accessing the low-level flags.
* The task_struct has had some fields removed (and some flags), and has
acquired a pointer to the thread_info struct.
* task_struct's are now allocated on slabs in kernel/fork.c, whereas
thread_info structs are allocated at the bottom of the stack pages.
* Some more convenience functions are provided at the end of linux/sched.h to
access flags in other tasks (these are here because they need to access the
task_struct).

[PATCH] tkill ia64 syscall table entry
minor nit, but it seems the tkill() patch added a sys_tkill entry without
removing an ia64_ni_syscall entry.

[PATCH] BLKGETSIZE64 (bytes not sectors)
Linus, below is a patch to return the size of a device in bytes, not
in units of 512-byte sectors (which is incorrect per function
definition). Tim Pepper submitted an equivalent patch for 2.4.x, now
included in 2.4.18-pre4. Please apply.

This patch updates the input core to the current version, fixing a bunch

Remove deprecated SIOCDEVPRIVATE ioctls from several net drivers. The same capabilities have been accessible via SIOCxMIIxxx ioctls

eventually remove SIOCDEVPRIVATE during the 2.5.x series.

[PATCH] (9/9) more ->get_sb() stuff
More ->get_sb() patches: nfs. It still acts as nodev - what we want to
(and can) do now is to give it enough smarts to recognize that same tree
might be already mounted.
We are almost done with nodev filesystems by now.
