2.5.64-mm7

  kernel.org rsync seems broken, so it is also at

http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/2.5/2.5.64/2.5.64-mm7/


. Niggling bugs in the anticipatory scheduler are causing problems.  I've
  reset the default to elevator=deadline until we get these fixed up.

. Added Alex's ext2 lock_super-removal patches

. The brlock removal patches are back

. Added /proc/sysrq-trigger.  Writing a character to this has the same
  effect as typing ALT-sysrq-that_character.

  This is so that sysrq facilities are available remotely.

. Lots of new PCI handling code here from Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk>
