This patch against 2.3.34-pre2 does:
1. Update SUBLEVEL in Makefile
2. Remove MAINTAINERS.orig
3. Remove misleading comment in fs/exec.c about (un)register_binfmt(),
probably referring to some old code which does not exist.
4. Optimize sys_lseek/llseek/readv/writev() to only take kernel lock when really needed.
5. Optimize sys_pread/pwrite to not take kernel lock as it is not needed
(if it was then sys_read/write would be broken too).
Regards,
Tigran

- List of maintainers and how to submit kernel changes
-
-Please try to follow the guidelines below. This will make things
-easier on the maintainers. Not all of these guidelines matter for every
-trivial patch so apply some common sense.
-
-1. Always _test_ your changes, however small, on at least 4 or
- 5 people, preferably many more.
-
-2. Try to release a few ALPHA test versions to the net. Announce
- them onto the kernel channel and await results. This is especially
- important for device drivers, because often that's the only way
- you will find things like the fact version 3 firmware needs
- a magic fix you didn't know about, or some clown changed the
- chips on a board and not its name. (Don't laugh! Look at the
- SMC etherpower for that.)
-
-3. Make sure your changes compile correctly in multiple
- configurations. In particular check that changes work both as a
- module and built into the kernel.
-
-4. When you are happy with a change make it generally available for
- testing and await feedback.
-
-5. Make a patch available to the relevant maintainer in the list. Use
- 'diff -u' to make the patch easy to merge. Be prepared to get your
- changes sent back with seemingly silly requests about formatting
- and variable names. These aren't as silly as they seem. One
- job the maintainers (and especially Linus) do is to keep things
- looking the same. Sometimes this means that the clever hack in
- your driver to get around a problem actually needs to become a
- generalized kernel feature ready for next time. See
- Documentation/CodingStyle for guidance here.
-
- PLEASE try to include any credit lines you want added with the
- patch. It avoids people being missed off by mistake and makes
- it easier to know who wants adding and who doesn't.
-
- PLEASE document known bugs. If it doesn't work for everything
- or does something very odd once a month document it.
-
-6. Make sure you have the right to send any changes you make. If you
- do changes at work you may find your employer owns the patch
- not you.
-
-7. Happy hacking.

-Maintainers List (try to look for most precise areas first)
-
-Note: For the hard of thinking, this list is meant to remain in alphabetical
-order. If you could add yourselves to it in alphabetical order that would
-so much easier [Ed]
-
-P: Person
-M: Mail patches to
-L: Mailing list that is relevant to this area
-W: Web-page with status/info
-S: Status, one of the following:
-
- Supported: Someone is actually paid to look after this.
- Maintained: Someone actually looks after it.
- Odd Fixes: It has a maintainer but they don't have time to do
- much other than throw the odd patch in. See below..
- Orphan: No current maintainer [but maybe you could take the
- role as you write your new code].
- Obsolete: Old code. Something tagged obsolete generally means
- it has been replaced by a better system and you
- should be using that.
