Linux 2.5.20-dj3
Patch queue under control again, this gets the interesting bits out of the way, and introduces some of the kbuild2.5 bits in a hope to cut down the number of "Will you merge kbuild2.5" mails I get each day.
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.

Patch queue under control again, this gets the interesting bits out of the way, and introduces some of the kbuild2.5 bits in a hope to cut down the number of "Will you merge kbuild2.5" mails I get each day.
In the attempt to get my Xircom Cardbus PCI working (2.5.20
plus GregKH extraction of Patrick's PCI detection patch is still not working for me) I decided to give -dj3 a spin... modular IrDA doesn't build (2.5.20 vanilla does):

o Merge selected bits of kbuild2.5 (Sam Ravnborg, Keith Owens)
- depmod & split-include warning fixes.
Linus actually implemented a better fix for this in 2.5.20 already.
