Summary of changes from v2.4.27-pre3 to v2.4.27-pre4

---

:

• [TG3]: Fix ethtool -S
• [TG3]: Make sure RX/TX flow control settings actually get
  set

:

• [XFS] Remove speculative preallocation from
  linvfs_get_block_core

:

• [XFS] Remove the 128K limitation on pagebuf_get_no_daddr() and
  allow the kmem_alloc() to fail.

:

• [TG3]: Count rx_discards in rx_errors
• [TG3]: Add more ethtool -S stats

:

• [SPARC64]: Pull in drivers/i2c/Config.in
• [SPARC64]: Use $(CC) in check for egcs/gcc3
• [SPARC64]: Backport some lvalue warning fixes from 2.6.x
• [SPARC32]: Use $(LD) -V for NEW_GAS check

:

• [XFS] xfs_iomap_write_delay() was doing speculative allocations
  without checking if there were any real blocks already in the
  speculative allocation area. This could result in an allocation
  that overlaps pre-allocated space. This would result in an ASSERT
  failure in debug kernels, or invalid output from xfs_bmap.
• [XFS] Add support for allocating additional file space in
  stripe width sized chunks. A new fstab/mount option, “swalloc” has
  been defined. If specified when mounting a striped file system,
  allocation requests will be rounded up to a stripe width if the
  file size is >= stripe width, and the data is being appended to
  eof. The ‘swalloc’ option is “off” by default.
