I definitely think all the patches need to be sent out to the list at
least once so people get a chance to review, so you did the right
think.

But I don't see a MAINTAINERS update (it still lists Bryan O'Sullivan,
support at pathscale.com and openib.org for the ipath driver).  Also I
don't see fixes for the smp_mb__after_clear_bit bug pointed out by
BenH or the bug of setting both _PAGE_NO_CACHE and _PAGE_WRITETHRU on
powerpc pointed out by paulus.

Anyway I'll look over the rest and queue for 2.6.23 if it looks good.
