Subject: Linux 2.6.20-rc4


There's absolutely nothing interesting here, unless you want to play with 
KVM, or happened to be bitten by the bug with really old versions of the 
linker that made parts of entry.S just go away.

But check it out anyway, and the shortlog gives more details on the 
various minor fixes that have accumulated this week. Mostly in random 
device drivers.
