2.6.0-test6-mm3

[Andrew Morton]

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0-test6/2.6.0-test6-mm3/

. Added the Intel MSI interrupt patch.  This is mainly to get it under
  test and under review and to provide the Intel developers with a codebase
  against which to continue working.  Probably nobody has the hardware yet.

. Added the Intel EFI patch for the same reason.  Don't enable
  CONFIG_ACPI_EFI on ia32: you will lose your PCI busses.

. Placed the must-fix and should-fix lists into Documentation/.  This is
  for people to review and to hopefully raise patches against.

. Plus the usual bunch of random fixes.

. I've uploaded a new version of the patch management scripts which I
  use to http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/patch-scripts-0.13/
  A number of people seem to be using these tools now.

  Alternatively: a while back a group of people took patch-scripts and
  fixed it up, basically rewriting it all.  See 

	https://savannah.nongnu.org/project/memberlist.php?group_id=3520

  Quilt is probably tons better than patch-scripts; I've never tried it.

. I shall be offline for all of next week.

I don't know why that was added actually; maybe it is just left-over
debugging code.

MSI cards have been out there for a while, now.
I dunno about the FSB pieces, though...

I could have sworn Intel ICH5 (now released) supports MSI...

Oops!  I thought I had removed all the printks before I made the patch.
That was indeed just debugging code and never intended to go in.
