Subject: 2.6.25-rc8-git5: Reported regressions from 2.6.24

[This time it's without the accompanying reply messages, because there are
some MIME-related problems with them I have yet to fix and I didn't want to
defer sending the entire report because of them, given that we have some new
regressions caused by very recent commits.

First of all, commit 92c9d07507f0a90b64172bfede7e6fa845e8e66b, for which
there is a patch at http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/6/113, refers to undefined
symbols.

Second, http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10410 is worrisome.  It
looks like we have not understood the issue well enough, after all.

Apart from this, there seems to be a resume regression related to graphics
that's been causing some headaches to us recently.  It's unrelated to the
recently reverted ACPI commit, but apparently is generic enough to affect
the users of both the ATI and Intel adapters, but only some of them.]

This message contains a list of some regressions from 2.6.24, for which there
are no fixes in the mainline I know of.  If any of them have been fixed already,
please let me know.

If you know of any other unresolved regressions from 2.6.24, please let me know
either and I'll add them to the list.  Also, please let me know if any of the
entries below are invalid.
