Thanks for the update. I'll put them into my 2.6.19-rc based tree, but I
won't backport them to 2.6.18, in case anyone is wondering.

I would prefer if you didn't do this, as it breaks my scripts when dealing
with multiple trees containing the same patches. Please either change the
subject of the replacement patch, or put the update into another patch
on top of it. It's no problem if your patches go right into powerpc.git,
but if you want me to forward them, I'd rather fold the patches myself.

Paul, are you taking these patches directly, or should I repost them
to you along with my other stuff for 2.6.20?
