Hi Paul,

Please pull from:

 master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/cell-2.6.git for-2.6.25

To pick up a few small fixes for the cell platform. Most of it is a follow-up
to the IOMMU rework that got merged in 2.6.25-rc1 and caused problems on
machines with large amounts of memory.

The fixes for oprofile and ptrace are not regressions, but are fixing
functionality that was broken on cell but has always worked on the
other platforms.

Thanks,

	Arnd <><
