Yeah, sorry.

The patch does:
- allows the apm driver to compile with gcc 2.8.1
(although Linus says this is a misfeature :-)
- changes the console blanking to only attempt to
turn off the first display device (instead of all
of them)
- Fix OOPS at power off with no APM BIOS

Linus says that this patch will be included in 2.1.125.

Cheers,
Stephen
