Linux 2.4.33-pre2

Linux 2.4.33-pre2

[Marcelo Tosatti]

Hi,

Here goes the second -pre of v2.4.33, containing a small number of
changes.

Most notably three security corrections, and an overflow fix for
machines with large amounts of memory and inodes (which would cause the
system's logic to reclaim inodes with highmem pages attached to fail).

Please refer to the changelog for full details...

I will release -hf32.3 shortly (well, I should be careful, each time I
expect something to be done within a few days, I lose).

Sorry for this pollution, I thought it would stay local :-(
Next time, I'll try to proceed differently. I think I first pushed the
changes then updated the tree, while perhaps I should have updated it
first.

Willy

It accidentally ended up in /pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/ instead of
/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/testing/?

Sorry about that.
