- Added the s390 git tree to the -mm lineup, as git-s390.patch (Martin
Schwidefsky)

- ppc64 (on mac g5) fails to boot for me, due to changes in the powerpc tree.

- `make allnoconfig’ builds will fail due to the IPC namespaces patches

- A reminder that I’m travelling for the next week and shall be more than
usually useless.

Boilerplate:

- See the `hot-fixes’ directory for any important updates to this patchset.

- To fetch an -mm tree using git, use (for example)

git fetch git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git v2.6.16-rc2-mm1

- -mm kernel commit activity can be reviewed by subscribing to the
mm-commits mailing list.

echo “subscribe mm-commits” | mail majordomo@vger.kernel.org

- If you hit a bug in -mm and it is not obvious which patch caused it, it is
most valuable if you can perform a bisection search to identify which patch
introduced the bug. Instructions for this process are at

http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt

But beware that this process takes some time (around ten rebuilds and
reboots), so consider reporting the bug first and if we cannot immediately
identify the faulty patch, then perform the bisection search.

- When reporting bugs, please try to Cc: the relevant maintainer and mailing
list on any email.
