I've added Linus's Acked-by. Vitaly, could you please send your Signed-off-by line, it was missing from the patches. You can check the current form of the commits via: git-pull git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git x86/core (the patches changed slightly, there was some merge fallout due to other changes in this area.)
