Hi,
Third version of the patchset. Changes since v2:
- Get rid of ->next and use the ->page field as a next pointer.
This saves some space in the scatterlist structure, at the cost
of one extra sg segment per chained list. Should definitely be
a space win.
- Cleanup linux/scatterlist.h,
This converts libata to using the sg helpers for looking up sg

whereas previously it was a dummy function in this case.

This patch applies to the 2.6.21.1 kernel.
disable_irq_wake call must be symmetric with enable_irq_wake. This patch fix
that problem

Hi list,
I have a small question regarding the accessing the data in the DMA
mapped region (in the driver). In my driver I only have the
'dma_addr_t addr' variable which is result after the 'dma_map_single'.
I don't have access to the virtual address of the data region.
Is there helper

Hi, Steven.
Nice to meet you again.
I have read the rt-mutex-design.txt that you wrote. That is excellent

Hi Linus,
please pull from:

Please test this on your Evo before pushing it upstream.
Due to a crash on some ACER laptops, this reverts
the Notify-on-stack fix from 2.6.21 and goes
back to an updated notify

Please forget the [PATCH] at91: fix enable/disable_irq_wake symmetry in pcmcia
