Subject: [PATCH] Rationalise email address: Network Specific Parts

Clean up the various different email addresses of mine listed in the code
to a single current and valid address. As Dave says his network merges
for 2.6.28 are now done this seems a good point to send them in where
they won't risk disrupting real changes.

I can't help wondering .. I'd bet a better solution in many of these
cases would be just using a name without any email address. It's not
like there are multiple alan coxes actively contributing to the
kernel.
