Patches applied cleanly to 3.0.74, 3.4.41, and 3.8.8 

Reviewing patches - will let you know anything odd.

Compiled and booted on the following systems:

Samsung Series 9 Intel Corei5
HP ProBook 6475b AMD A10-4600M APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics

dmesgs for all releases look good. No regressions compared to the
previous dmesgs for each of these releases.

Cross-compile tests results:

alpha: defconfig passed on all
arm: defconfig passed on all
arm64: not applicable to 3.0.y, 3.4.y. defconfig passed on 3.8.y
c6x: not applicable to 3.0.y, defconfig passed on 3.4.y, and 3.8.y.
mips: defconfig passed on all
mipsel: defconfig passed on all
powerpc: wii_defconfig passed on all
sh: defconfig passed on all 
sparc: defconfig passed on all
tile: tilegx_defconfig passed on all

Samsung Series 9 Intel Corei5:
Note: Screaming fast system with ssd!! There are some vga issues on
3.0.74 and 3.0.75-rc1 on this system and I am going to investigate those
and see what's going on. No problems with 3.4 and 3.8. My current guess
is that 3.5 is the minimum for this system.

thanks,
