Ok, test11 is out there. The most noticeable fixes since pre7 are the
Athlon lockup fix, the PCI routing handling, and getting the Joliet stuff
right for iso9660.

----

 - final:
    - Patrick Mochel: export the ACPI facs table in /proc too
    - Brian Gerst: Video4Linux cleanup (named initializers)
    - me: only use irq13 for FP errors for external FPU's. This
      fixes the Atlon FP exception lockups.
    - me: add a new intel signature to the PIRQ table matching logic.
      Make the matching match both reported and actual device ID (with a
      preference for the reported). Fixes PCMCIA on NEC Versa laptops.
