Patches against 2.6.16-rc5, but many will work fine with other kernels.

If you're not familiar with 'quilt' (from sourceforge), the 'series' file 
tells you the order in which to apply the patches.

Some of these are patches will be untested and they might break things,
particularly the ones towards the end of the series.
The comments at the top of the patches and in the series file may help you 
decide whether or not to try them. If I've added my Signed-Off-By line 
it means I think the patch is OK.

If you don't intend to use kgdb, skip the 3 kgdb patches.

Please use the dm-devel@redhat.com mailing list for feedback.
