Kai Germaschewski <kai@tp1.ruhr-uni-bochum.de>:
  o kbuild: initramfs updates
  o kbuild: Fix up initramfs, adapt arch/alpha

Linus Torvalds <torvalds@home.transmeta.com>:
  o The crypto auto-load should only be enabled if crypto in enabled
  o Fix floppy timer initialization
  o From Rick Lindsley <ricklind@us.ibm.com>: missing return value in
    sysfs partition code.

  o USB storage: fix result code checks
  o USB storage: check for abort at higher levels

Nathan Scott <nathans@sgi.com>:
  o [XFS] Fix an oversight in the mount option parsing code which would
    result in a kernel panic on certain option strings.
  o [XFS] Fix the handling of the realtime device on the mount path -
    this was broken a few weeks ago with the rework of the target
    device pointer between the xfs_mount and pb_target structures.
  o [XFS] Minor header reorg to get xfs_lrw.h back into line with the
    other linux headers.  Allows us to not repeat the xfs_stratcb
    declaration in several places.  Also rename linvfs_set_inode_ops to
    xfs_set_inodeops since its an auxillary routine not a linvfs
    method.
  o [XFS] Fix compile error from non-DMAPI enabled builds
  o [XFS] Fix xfs_da_node_split handling of dir/attr buffers for
    filesystems built with a directory block size larger than the
    filesystem (and hence attr) blocksize.  This does not affect
    filesystems built with default mkfs.xfs parameters, and only hits
    when a large number of attributes are set on an inode.
  o [XFS] The revalidate routine is now a local, static inline
    elsewhere, so no longer needs to be declared globally here.
  o [XFS] Fix a couple of issues on the error path when dealing with
    external devices (log/realtime).  path_init was missing the
    LOOKUP_POSITIVE flag, so it would fail to tell us if the file
    doesn't exist, there was a spot where we were returning the wrong
    signedness for the code, and when mount is failing, we can call
    into xfs_blkdev_put with a NULL pointer depending on which devices
    were initialised and which weren't.
  o [XFS] Fix compile error with XFS_BIG_FILESYSTEMS set

Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>:
  o md: Misc little raid fixes
  o md: Fix assorted raid1 problems
  o md: Fix bug in raid5
  o md: Fix another two bug in raid5
  o kNFSd: Use ->sendpage to send nfsd (and lockd) replies
  o kNFSd: Support zero-copy read for NFSD
  o kNFSd: Make sure final xdr_buf.len is correct on server reply
  o kNFSd: Convert readlink to use a separate page for returning
    symlink contents
  o kNFSd: Make sure svc_process releases response even on error
  o Support latest NVRAM card from micromemory

Patrick Mansfield <patmans@us.ibm.com>:

  o Re: [PATCH] fix 2.5 scsi queue depth setting

  o PPC32: Increase max kernel size in boot wrapper, fix compile
    warnings
  o The patch below contains some minor updates to the bmac and mace
    ethernet drivers used on powermacs.  The bmac.c change is just to
    remove some compile warnings.  The mace.c change is to move an
    inline function definition to before the point where it is used.
  o Update ADB drivers in 2.5
  o remove obsolete powermac drivers
