13 changes is too much this late in the -RC series.  Fixes need to
trickle in, in small quantities, and therefore it's critical that
maintainers submit fixes often and as soon as they are ready.

Please pick a small number of the most critical fixes, say 3 or 4.  An
easy way to roughly quantify which ones shoule be included is:

1) Is there an OOPS or crash regression reported by real users and
   listed in the official lkml regression list which is caused by this
   problem?

2) Is there an exploitable security concern fixed by this change?

Else, it's only net-next-2.6 material.

For example:

    Bluetooth: Remove max_tx and tx_window module paramenters from L2CAP

Things like that change are absolutely not appropriate at this
stage in the post merge-window development environment.

Thanks.
