Hi all,

News:
	If a merge causes a build failure, I am now combining the fix
back into the merge so that we have less bad bisection points to hit.
The patches are still noted with an "Applying ..." note in the merge log
and summary.

	The diff summary (from Linus' tree) looks like:

 3701 files changed, 214575 insertions(+), 240756 deletions(-)

mainly due to the powerpc tree which removes about 140000 lines in
arch/ppc and include/asm-ppc.

Changes since next-20080606:

New trees: battery, tip-core, cpus4096, genirq, timers, leds, backlight
Changed trees: ftrace, safe-poison-pointers, sched, stackprotector,
	x86 (the repository changed)
Removed trees: hrt (replaced by timers tree), rcu, locking

The kbuild-current (which should actually be the kbuild tree - my
mistake) needed a commit reverted to fix the build.

The driver-core tree lost all three conflicts.

The usb tree needed the patch that was previously applied to the hid tree
for BLK pushdown fallout.

The tip-core tree got a trivial conflict with the kbuild-current tree.

The sched tree got a trivial conflict with ftrace tree and needed the
ftrace rculist split fixup patch.

The pci tree gained a conflict with the kbuild-current tree.

The hid tree gained a conflict with the driver-core tree since they share
(a slightly white space different) patch.

The powerpc tree gained several conflicts with the driver-core tree as it
removed some files the a driver-core patch was changing.  It also needed
a commit reverted that has turned out to need more thought.

The net tree gained a conflict with the net-current tree.

The wireless tree gained a conflict with the wireless-current tree.

The arm tree gained a conflict with the mtd tree.

The firmware tree fixed its build error but gained a new conflict against
the driver-core tree.

The backlight tree gained a couple of trivial conflicts with the arm tree.

I have applied the following temporary patch for known build problems:

	"Fix various 8390 builds" - the net tree broke builds on various
architectures - hopefully this patch will go into the net tree shortly.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have created today's linux-next tree at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git
(patches at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/sfr/linux-next/).  If you
are tracking the linux-next tree using git, you should not use "git pull"
to do so as that will try to merge the new linux-next release with the
old one.  You should use "git fetch" as mentioned in the FAQ on the wiki
(see below).

You can see which trees have been included by looking in the Next/Trees
file in the source.  There are also quilt-import.log and merge.log files
in the Next directory.  Between each merge, the tree was built with
a ppc64_defconfig for powerpc and an allmodconfig for x86_64. After the
final fixups, it is also built with powerpc allnoconfig,
44x_defconfig and allyesconfig and i386, sparc and sparc64 defconfig.

Below is a summary of the state of the merge.

We are up to 92 trees (counting Linus' and 13 trees of patches pending for
Linus' tree), more are welcome (even if they are currently empty).
Thanks to those who have contributed, and to those who haven't, please do.

Status of my local build tests will be at
http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/linux-next .  If maintainers want to give
advice about cross compilers/configs that work, we are always open to add
more builds.

Thanks to Jan Dittmer for adding the linux-next tree to his build tests
at http://l4x.org/k/ , the guys at http://test.kernel.org/ and Randy
Dunlap for doing many randconfig builds.

There is a wiki covering stuff to do with linux-next at
http://linux.f-seidel.de/linux-next/pmwiki/ .  Thanks to Frank Seidel.
