Subject: [patch] 2.4.25-rc1, 2.6.2-rc2 salinfo.c
Message-Id: <6246.1076392256@kao2.melbourne.sgi.com>

Periodically check for outstanding MCA or INIT records and pass them to
user space salinfo.

Tony: I tested this with recovered MCA events.  The records showed up
once the 5 minute timer popped.

The patch is against 2.4.25-rc1 bk.  It applies to 2.6.2-rc2 with offsets.
