Hi.

This one should go in 2.6.26.3, too:

I didn't see it in Greg's list:

ACPI: Fix thermal shutdowns

Do not use unsigned int if there is test for negative number...

See drivers/acpi/processor_perflib.c
  static unsigned int ignore_ppc = -1;
...
  if (event == CPUFREQ_START && ignore_ppc <= 0) {
       ignore_ppc = 0;
...
