Subject: [git pull] x86 fixes
Linus, please pull the latest x86 git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/x86/linux-2.6-x86.git for-linus
the inclusion of the quicklist removal patch was a hard decision but we
tend to think that it's best way forward: re-tuning the quicklist
freeing thresholds would probably solve the regression too but has risks
of its own as the rules are not simple at all. (64-bit x86 does not use
quicklists either)
Note: the ia32 syscall restart fix from Roland has an impact on the ABI.
(it's a good fix IMO, but still it's a change.)
