Taking a small thanksgiving break, but before that here's 2.5.50.
Merges from Alan, Dave and Andrew. ACPI, USB, LSM and SCSI updates. Sparc,
ARM and v850 architecture updates.
I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving (*).
Linus
(*) For the non-US aware of you out there: it's the time of year when the
whole country turns into one big turkey-filled trough, and pretty much
everybody just pigs out. The amount of turkey consumed would roughly reach
5.4 times to the moon and back, if all the turkeys were laid in a straight
line. Small black holes form where enough fat people get together. It's
not pretty. And I'll do my best to blend in ;^).
