Linux 2.6.23-rc8

From: Linus Torvalds
Date: Mon Sep 24 2007 - 20:46:56 EST



Ok, I think I'm getting close to releasing a real 2.6.23. Things seem to
have calmed down, and I think Thomas Gleixner may have found the
suspend/resume regression that has dogged us for a while, so I'm feeling
happy about things.

Of course, me feeling happy is usually immediately followed by some nasty
person finding new problems, but I'll just ignore that and enjoy the
feeling anyway, however fleeting it may be.

The shortlog really is pretty short, and I'm appending the diffstat at the
end too in case anybody cares, but basically it's just a number of fairly
small but real fixes, with some support for a few new chips to the sky2
network driver..

In fact, much of the diffstat is some documentation updates and that sky2
update. The rest tends to be a few lines, as you can tell..
