linux-kernel:
This is 2.1.131ac12. I've merged various fixes and some driver updates.
The 8390 SMP problem isn't fixed because it needs a fundamental problem
in the enable/disable_irq() code to be fixed. Basically what was sane 2.0
behaviour isnt sane 2.1 behaviour.
I've also sent a first small subset of patches (about 26 8)) to Linus for
merging.
