2.4.20pre5aa2

[Andrea Arcangeli]

2.4.20pre5aa1 had a deadlock in the sched_yield changes (missing _irq
while taking the spinlock). this new one should be rock solid ;).

Changelog:

Only in 2.4.20pre5aa2: 00_ext3-o_direct-1

	O_DIRECT support for ext3, from Andrew and Stephen.

Only in 2.4.20pre5aa2: 00_find_or_create_page-1

	Cleanup patch from Christoph to start the xfs merging.

Only in 2.4.20pre5aa1: 00_net-softirq-2
Only in 2.4.20pre5aa2: 00_net-softirq-3

	This time I think I fixed the AF_UNIX latency in lmbench
	to go as fast as with irqrate applied (if yes, as I expect it was
	totally unrelated to the irqrate irq proper part). Please
	benchmark (totally untested).

Only in 2.4.20pre5aa1: 00_prepare-write-fixes-3-1
Only in 2.4.20pre5aa2: 98_prepare-write-fixes-3-1

	Moved at the end so it compiles even if you stop applying patches
	in the middle. From Christoph.

Only in 2.4.20pre5aa2: 00_reiserfs-o_direct-1

	Fixes for O_DIRECT with reiserfs from Chris.

Only in 2.4.20pre5aa1: 00_sched-O1-aa-2.4.19rc3-2.gz
Only in 2.4.20pre5aa2: 00_sched-O1-aa-2.4.19rc3-3.gz

	Fix deadlock in sched_yield (rq->lock must be acquired after
	disabling irqs). From Andi.

Only in 2.4.20pre5aa2: 00_slabinfo-shared-address-space-1

	Fix from Arnd Bergmann to avoid archs with shared/overlapped address
	space across kernel and userspace to show broken (literally ;) in
	/proc/slabinfo.

Only in 2.4.20pre5aa1: 10_rawio-vary-io-12
Only in 2.4.20pre5aa2: 10_rawio-vary-io-13

Only in 2.4.20pre5aa1: 60_tux-flush_icache_range-1

	Make UML compile and work again (didn't like too much the /usr/lib/uml
	hardcoded path just for this proggy:

andrea@dualathlon:~> ls /usr/lib/uml/
port-helper
andrea@dualathlon:~>

	to make the debugger working). I'd prefer to install it locally
	in my home dir.
