Hi Linus,

please do a

bk pull http://lia64.bkbits.net/to-linus-2.5

This will update the files shown below. Both patches fix serious
problems. The first could cause the kernel to crash when dumping core
from an ia64 binary that's using the new system call stubs and the
second fixes a bug that prevented gdb from working properly inside the
kernel's gate DSO.

Thanks much to Rohit Seth for tracking down the coredumping problem!
(Which I would have sworn was due to race condition; boy was I wrong!)

Thanks!
