Subject: net-2.6.22 plans...

As the merge window approaches I've made a decision about how to
handle the TCP RB-Tree work since it's getting really close.

First, I'm going to rebase the net-2.6.22 tree after making a quick
run through my patch backlog looking for low hanging fruit.  I will
include the TCP write queue abstraction bits but not any of the
TCP RB-Tree based work.

Then I'll clone a tcp-2.6 tree from the rebased net-2.6.22 and put all
of the TCP RB-Tree bits in there.

There is not enough time to do a proper performance analysis of the
RB-Tree stuff and I'm busy working on other things at the moment so I
won't be able to do it myself soon either.  So we'll try to take care
of things in time for 2.6.23

Some minor conflicts might result from yanking out the RB-Tree bits
from net-2.6.22 so give me a day or two to finish this.

Thanks.
