I/O Tree patch ... CVS Head will be unstable for the next few days.

Hello parisc-linux hackers,

The general consensus between the developers is to commit the I/O tree patch, and fix what is broken. So I am going to commit the patch to CVS and start working on bug reports, etc.

Right now we are pretty sure PAT boxes are broken ... but Grant has given me access to an A500 to work on so I can fix PAT boxes to use iotree.

If you are interested in kernel stability, do not run CVS head for a couple of days. I will probably send out another message once we feel the kernel has stabalized.

Thanks,

- Ryan

P.S. I will start committing the iotree patch in an hour or so giving anyone a (short) chance to get the latest CVS head before I commit the patch.

Hello parisc-linux hackers,

CVS head is starting to look pretty stable again. This message is the "all clear" for others to work/play with.

Thanks,

- Ryan
