[PATCH]: linux-2.6.17-uc0 (MMU-less updates)

[Greg Ungerer]

Hi All,

An update of the uClinux (MMU-less) code against 2.6.17.
There is a couple of bug fixes, some new CPU support,
but mostly this is some new features and improvements.
Some do need some good solid testing before merging to
mainline. Pretty much everything in this patch set is
related to m68knommu arch.

http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/uClinux-2.6.x/linux-2.6.17-uc0.patch.gz

The biggest change is way the clock frequency and RAM setup
is now configured for m68knommu targets. Both are now free-form
configs, not just a small set of possible values from a menu.
This will break older configs, so you will need to update them
appropriately when using this patch set. Advantage is that
this new mechanism greatly cleans and simplifies the clock and
RAM setup handling.
