The double lock on socket messages on the i486-33/AHA152x
scsi/3c509/8MB machine cannot be reproduced in the same fashion as
they could be under 1.3.86.

Seeing as how a spell checker was applied to the source code ...

One of the ``fixed'' lines in drivers/char/ftape/ftape-io.c still
contains an error of some sort. ``And'' is definitely not the correct
word here.
/* If wakeup succeeded we shouldn't get and error here..

Keep up the good work. 1.3 is stabilizing quite nicely.
