Lot's of minor bug fixes. A few major bug fixes. A short rundown of stuff in there includes:
The usual updates for PCI devices Update for the ulaw.c sound driver file Stephen Tweedie's inode fix (the stuff about i_mmap ring corrupted, this is done differently than the approach Ben LaHaise took to the problem) Update to the 3c59x driver (to version 0.46c which has been reported to solve the transmitter errors and properly default the bus mastering) Update to the aic7xxx driver (fix a 2842 IRQ detect problem and a few device negotiation fixes as well) Update to the VM code (changes from Werner Fink and Ingo Molnar) to solve problems where the kernel locks up if it runs out of physical memory under certain conditions (news servers could trigger this rather easily) Update to locks.c to solve some race conditions Update to the IBM Token Ring driver Fix to solve /proc oops problems Fix to the rarp.c code in ipv4 so it won't forget to unregister its packet driver, and won't unregister it if it hasn't been registered (only effects the code if compiled as a module) APM screen blanking fix Pentium F0 0F bug fix Fix missing symbol exports so ext2fs can be a module Update to the kernel PPS time code (I think that's right....) Update to the FPU code so that apps that use the FPU can be debugged
Other assorted fixes I can't remember right now.....
