- kernel.org is being slow - the diff is also at

	http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/2.6.0-test9-mm1.gz

- A couple of fixes for VM memory reclaim.

- The ia32 EFI code seems to be complete now.

- The recent IO scheduler regressions should be fixed.

- Dropped the runtime-selectable-IO-scheduler patches.

- A number of fixes to the pagecache readahead code should help seeky
  workloads such as non-direct-io databases.

- Various fixes, mostly minor.

Changes since 2.6.0-test8-mm1:
