Cover letter [PATCH] [0/12] x86 Late merge bug fixes for 2.6.23

Various simple bug fixes, no new features. Please review. I plan to send them to Linus later.

I don't have anything else critical pending. If you believe a x86 patch is critical and really needs to make .23 please send email.

There are a few hardware fixes pending too, but they're not regressions so probably .24 material.

Open problems:
- Still one known reference counting bug in c_p_a()
- x86-64 vdso compilation still broken on old debian binutils
* No satisfactionary workaround found so far. Those users might need to update their binutils
