Subject2.5.65-mm1

http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/2.5/2.5.65/2.5.65-mm1/

kernel.org is being slow. Should later appear at

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.5/2.5.65/2.5.65-mm1/


. An updated version of Russell's PCMCIA patches

. Lots more anticipatory scheduler work.

. It turns out that calling disk request_fns from timer/tasklet context is
not permitted because a few old drivers like to sleep in that function.

keventd cannot be used for this because it can deadlock. So another
kernel thread per CPU has been reluctantly added.
