2.6.23-rc9-git5: Known regressions from 2.6.22

2.6.23-rc9-git5: Known regressions from 2.6.22

[Rafael J. Wysocki]

This message contains a list of some known regressions from 2.6.22 for which
there are no fixes in the mainline that I know of.  If any of them have been fixed
already, please let me know.

If you know of any other unresolved regressions from 2.6.22, please let me know
either and I'll add them to the list.

For details, please follow the links given in references.

As you can see, there is a Bugzilla entry for each of the listed regressions.
I'm the owner of some of these entries, so if you want me to reassign them to
someone else, please let me know.

There also is a Bugzilla entry used for tracking the regressions from 2.6.22,
unresolved as well as resolved, at:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9056

Please let me know if there are any Bugzilla entries that should be added to
the list in there.

Greetings,
Rafael
