Ok, this kernel hopefully contains all the high-priority merges with Alan,
which means that as far as that is concerned, I'm done with 2.4.x and
ready to pass it on to Marcelo.

Which means that I'd also like people to double-check that there are no
embarrassing missing pieces due to the merge (or other patches).

Known issue: Al Viro fixed the nasty overflow with /proc/cpuinfo and
multiple CPU's, but only for x86. So other architectures need to convert
from the old "get_cpuinfo()" to the seq-file-based "show_cpuinfo()". The
conversion should be pretty mindless and straightforward.. (ie use
"seq_printf()"  instead of "sprintf()" etc - see arch/i386/kernel/setup.c
for the example code).

Changelog appeded,

		Linus
