IrDA patches on the way...

[Jean Tourrilhes]

	Hi Linus,

	It's now a tradition : here a few patches for you to merge in
the 2.5.6 kernel. A few cleanup that have been waiting for a while,
and a few critical fixes that recently showed up.
	I've asked Jeff if he wanted to be my "Patch Penguin (TM)" for
Linux-IrDA patches, but he was not very enthousiastic about IrDA (I
don't understand why ;-) I'll make seperate patches for Marcello.
	Patches have been tested in 2.5.6-pre2 (SMP). All non critical
patches have been on the IrDA list for more than one month (in
particular all the changes to LAP Tx queue).
        Have fun...
