It's based on Linus's head at the moment, give or take the last few bits he
pulled in which I haven't dealt with yet.

I asked him to pull creds-v4 last:

	http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/dhowells/cred-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=creds-v4

I'd quite like to amend the name of the branch to something more sensible,
since the 'v<N>' represented new versions based on fixing up merges with
Linus's tree rather than changing my patches.

However, if you'd rather I just threw new merges on top of that, then I can do
that - it's just got a silly branch name.

Alternatively, if you'd rather James pulled it into his 'next' branch, he
might be amenable to that.
