Linus Torvalds: Linux 2.6.19-rc5

Ok, things are finally calming down, it seems.

The -rc5 thing is mainly a few random architecture updates (arm,
mips, uml, avr, power) and the only really noticeable one there is
likely some fixes to the local APIC accesses on x86, which
apparently fixes a few machines.

The rest is really mostly one-liners (or close) to various
subsystems. New PCI ID’s, trivial fixes, cifs, dvb, things like
that. I’m feeling better about this – there may be a -rc6, but
maybe we don’t even need one.

As usual, thanks to everybody who tested and chased down some of
the regressions,
       Linus
