Linux 2.6.30-rc8

Linus Torvalds
2009-06-03T04:06:55Z

This is almost certainly the last -rc, and I debated even doing it. But
rather than just do 2.6.30, I decided that I'd be better off doing a last
-rc8 and then a real release probably this weekend.

This has mostly driver and arch updates, with perhaps the intel drm/kms
and network driver changes standing out, but there's powerpc, blackfin and
arm updates too. Admittedly, the two biggest parts of the powerpc update
are a revert and a defconfig update.

A lot of small stuff, fixing a few regressions (and at least one bugzilla
entry going back to 2.6.24). The small stuff does matter. Please test.

Linus
