I'll split into groups and let you decide where the cut off is:

1) crashes for stable and 2.6.22
2) stuff that should be fixed in 2.6.22 but isn't stable material
3) newer stuff for -mm or later release

Also, I just got loaner versions of the just release 88e807X hardware
so it maybe possible to get that working before 2.6.22 final.
