The diffstat and short summary of the fixes are below.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.16.10 and 2.6.16.11, as it is small enough to do so.

The updated 2.6.16.y git tree can be found at:
rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.16.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
www.kernel.org/git/

thanks,

Looks good, I dropped it on an ASUS laptop running FC4 and everything works, including the selinux stuff. However, I did note these things:
1 - sounds has stopped working on the FC4 kernel (again) 2.6.16.11 ok
2 - at boot, the 2.6.16.11 kernel stops after the "storage" text in the "initializing" line, and hangs long enough for me to say "Oh .... it hung" before continuing.
3 - ipw2200 wireless continues to work flawlessly. I mention this because there was a time when every patch was an adventure.

Thanks for the patches.
