Good work! I must add:

o Ready Per network protocol slabcache and sock.h cleanup (Arnaldo)
o WIP Per fs slabcache and fs.h cleanup (Daniel/jgarzik)

About the 802.2 net stack: its mostly ready, its being used by the
linux-sna folks but I've stopped work on it for a while (Jay is also busy
with other things right now) to work on the sock cleanup and on a wireless
driver (stopped now for a while, will merge other drivers available for the
planet wirefree pcmcia driver) and to help in the BIO scsi drivers conversion
front.

About the NetBEUI stack, it mostly works but its not SMP safe and its still
not in a good shape IMHO).

I'll probably be submitting the per network protocol slabcache/sock.h
cleanup to DaveM RSN.
