[lm-sensors] [3/3] 2.6.19-r2: known regressions with patches

[bunk@stusta.de (Adrian Bunk)]

This email lists some known regressions in 2.6.19-rc2 compared to 2.6.18
with patches available.

Unless there are specific reasons against doing so, we should try to get 
these patches into -rc3.

(Especially the lad who wrote the patch for the third entry should ush 
 his patch...)

If you find your name in the Cc header, you are either submitter of one
of the bugs, maintainer of an affectected subsystem or driver, a patch
of you caused a breakage or I'm considering you in any other way possibly
involved with one or more of these issues.

Due to the huge amount of recipients, please trim the Cc when answering.
