2.1.23: random stuff

Hi all!

Great job on 2.1.23, people. Thanks. =] I've found a few
stickies in the compilation/execution process that I thought I'd
summarize:

rtc.c won't compile unless you add #include <asm/poll.h>
I had to remove the first MODULE_PARM(floppy, "s"); (line 4131)
from floppy.c to get it to build as a module.
I had to change all the 'select_table's in the sound driver to
'poll_table' to get it to build (and poll_wait).
I needed to use the tulip-21142.c driver from cesdis (with
skb->free = 1; commented out) to get it to work with my
SMC EtherPower 21140-AC rev. card.
util-linux-2.6's mount won't build against 2.1.21+ because xiafs
and ext support are removed from the kernel (I just copied
the include files from 2.1.20).

Hope some (any) of this is useful to someone.

Thanks,
-bp
