[uml-devel] [PATCH 0/6] UML little patches for 2.6.16

[Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso]

I'm sending some little fixups for inclusion 2.6.16. I've held some other
fixes which need wider testing. Please merge now.

[uml-devel] [PATCH 1/6] uml: correct error messages in COW driver

[Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso]

Improve some error messages in the COW driver, and say V3, not V2, when talking
about V3 format. Also resync with our userspace code utility a bit more.

[uml-devel] [PATCH 2/6] uml: fix usage of kernel_errno in place of errno

[Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso]

From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

To avoid conflicts, in kernel files errno is expanded to kernel_errno, to
distinguish it from glibc errno. In this case, the code wants to use the libc
errno but the kernel one is used; in the other usage, we return errno in place
of -errno in case of an error.

[uml-devel] [PATCH 3/6] uml: fix ((unused)) attribute

Use __attribute_used__ instead of __attribute__ ((unused)).
This will help with GCC > 3.2.
