I think this patch is rather obvious, so maybe I should ask Andrew to
apply it to -mm for now, to get some testing. Would that help to verify
it for acceptance?

My apologies for taking so long to look at these patches.
I agree there is an issue here, but large parts of this
we need to address kernel side. If the parameter buffer is allocated
after the kernel there is no guarantee that it will be addressable
from the kernels early page table so this fix
Hi Ingo;
I just built 51-31, mode 4, and although I spent an hour putting in
debug printouts in /etc/init.d/ntpd, I couldn't make it work, and
the /var/log/ntpd.log is being flooded with "bad file descriptor"
messages.
So I'm back on 51-30 in mode 3 for the time being so tvtime works.

I hit a small problem (first observed in 2.6.13-rc3-mm1) that resulted in
my kernels no longer building because of undefined references to
request_firmware and release_firmware.
After a little research, I found that the QLA stuff requires CONFIG_FW_LOADER.
I was using the sn2_defconfig as a star

Hi,
I recieved an email from someone claiming to be stuck with Linux 2.4, due to
relying on a Promise TX4200 disk controller (using the fdsata driver from
promise's website, which is 2.4-only):

I'm seeing the following compile error in 2.6.13-rc3-mm1 (but it doesn't
seem to be specific to -mm) with CONFIG_NET=n:
