Ack on them all as far as I'm concerned. I suspect the _real_ bugs in 
floppy.c are about various paths not holding the floppy_lock spinlock, but 
the patches all look fine and certainly don't make anything worse.

Mind re-sending them after 2.6.35, though? (Or maybe somebody like Greg 
wants to queue them up in their drievr trees)
