Linux 2.5.7-dj1

Resync, add compile fixes, simmer for 30 mins on low heat. Add random pending patches to taste.

Still untested beyond 'it compiles', handle with care.
Mostly a 'standing still' release, I'll catch up with 2.4.19pre next time.

As usual,..
Patch against 2.5.7 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.
