Please, please now delete the Atari CONFIG_STRAM_SWAP code.  It may be
excellent and ingenious code, but its reference to swap_vfsmnt betrays that it
hasn't been built since 2.5.1 (four years old come December), it's delving
deep into matters which are the preserve of core mm code, its only purpose is
to give the more conscientious mm guys an anxiety attack from time to time;
yet we keep on breaking it more and more.

If you want to use RAM for swap, then if the MTD driver does not already
provide just what you need, I'm sure David could be persuaded to add the
extra.  But you'd also like to be able to allocate extents of that swap for
other use: we can give you a core interface for that if you need.  But unbuilt
for four years suggests to me that there's no need at all.

I cannot swear the patch below won't break your build, but believe so.

<title>[PATCH] USB: Always do usb-handoff</title>

<content type='text'>
This revised patch (as586b) makes usb-handoff permanently true and no
longer a kernel boot parameter.  It also removes the piix3_usb quirk code;
that was nothing more than an early version of the USB handoff code
(written at a time when Intel's PIIX3 was about the only motherboard with
USB support).  And it adds identifiers for the three PCI USB controller
classes to pci_ids.h.

Original patch from Bertro Simul

This is probably still not quite correct, but seems to be
the best solution so far.

<title>[PATCH] Add rdinit parameter to pick early userspace init</title>

Since early userspace was added, there's no way to override which init to
run from it.  Some people tack on an extra cpio archive with a link from
/init depending on what they want to run, but that's sometimes impractical.

Changing the "init=" to also override the early userspace isn't feasible,
since it is still used to indicate what init to run from disk when early
userspace has completed doing whatever it's doing (i.e.  load filesystem
modules and drivers).

Instead, introduce "rdinit=" and make it override the default "/init" if
specified.
