Ok, more of the "lots of small fixes" patches. The most notable of which
is probably the atomic PTE patches by Ben LaHaise, which fixes the
long-standing lost dirty bits problem under SMP, and also cleans up some
of the ia32 PAE mode issues.
The other noticeable one is the undefined C code thing - we've all seen
the discussion, and this basically has the raw patch. I expect maintainers
who care about how this is done will send me their versions of the safe
code - most probably don't care that much, but judging by the discussion
some certainly care a LOT ;)
Linus
