Subject: Linux 2.5.20-dj1

Just a resync against 2.5.20, I'll start digging through
the rather large patch queue next time, after pushing another
load of this to Linus..

As usual,..

Patch against 2.5.20 vanilla is available from:
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/davej/patches/2.5/

Merged patch archive: http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/patches/merged/

Check http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/Linux-2.5.html before reporting
known bugs that are also in mainline.

-- Davej.

2.5.20-dj1
o Drop some more bogus bits found whilst patch-splitting.
o emu10k1 compile fix. (Alistair Strachan)
o Framebuffer updates. (James Simmons)
o Drop some bogus kbuild bits. (Kai Germaschewski)
o Unobsolete egcs kernel builds. (Me)
| The known bug can be worked around, and this is compiler
| of choice on sparc and other archs.

-dj1 oopsed on me at bootup, when kicking in the framebuffer (ATI Rage
128/Radeon). The following patch fixed it for me. It's a variant of the patch
sent in earlier for the same problem. -dj1 fixed pat of it, this should fix
the rest.
