Currently the generic kernel won't build if you turn off NUMA
support.  Seems discontig support is too entangled with NUMA
support to live without it.  This patch makes it behave a bit
more friendly.

Here is a small patch for paddr_to_nid().  This fix is already in 2.4
and is used in the case where a NUMA kernel is running on a machine
without a SRAT ACPI table.  Without this patch the node info is not
correctly located.

i386 defaults to building bzImage (as well as modules) if you just type
make.  This patch mirrors that on ia64 by building compressed.

sound/pcmcia/vx/vx_entry.c:

This patch removes the PCMCIA timer release functionality which is no
longer required. Without this the module does not compile.

Too much cut-and-paste, noticed by Dmitry Torokhov <dtor_core@ameritech.net>

On PPC32 we reorder the arguments so they fit into 6 registers.  Glibc will
need a two-line stub to change them from the standard order to the ordering
used by the system call: (fd, advice, offset, len).

In both 2.4 and in 2.6, error handling for bad cdrom media is
wrong.  And it is my fault I'm afraid, since I botched an earlier
fix for the problem by putting the fix in the wrong spot.

My kids have a "Jumpstart Toddlers" cd they have long since
completely killed, which makes a great test disc.  Without this
fix, the best time projection I can get for completing a dd type
sector copy is about 2 years...  Most of that is spent thrashing
about in kernel space trying to re-read sectors we already know
are not correctable....  After the fix, I was able to rip a copy
the CD (or rather muddle through it getting lots of EIO errors)
in about 15 minutes.

Attached is the fix for 2.6.x,

of requiring users to select SCSI in order to see it.

The attached patch by Tony Luck fixes a memory leak in the ia32 execve code
path.

Yes, looks good: reset the iterator at allocation.

Remove the PCMCIA release timer that got missed in earlier patch.  This
is required for successful compilation of the driver.

a valid SEP bit. The errata has it right: you have to have at
least model 3, stepping 3. Not "model >= 3 or stepping >= 3".

Fix the test accordingly.
