Linus Torvalds: Linux 2.6.15-rc5

There’s a rc5 out there now, largely because I’m going to be out
of email contact for the next week, and while I wish people were
religiously testing all the nightly snapshots, the fact is, you
guys don’t.

So making the current state available as an -rc makes sense,
even though not a lot has changed since -rc4.

That said, if you didn’t test -rc4 either–shame on
you, and please do test -rc5.

The diffstat says “4562 insertions(+), 4997 deletions(-)” since
-rc4, but the bulk of those (by far) are the mips
defconfig updates (and the removal of the sk98lin-specific hw
checksum verifier, which the networking layer is better at
anyway).

So pretty much all of this is various one-liners etc, many of
them in V4L.

Shortlog and diffstat appended.
