Please make sure to send in a patch, resend it, resend it ...,
till it gets accepted. All the work we are doing outside 
arch/* and include/asm-mips64/* has very limited benefit if
we do not push it into the main tree. 

Leo, I know you were going to do this anyway :-) Just taking
the opportunity to remind everyone else ...

Ralf, you mentioned about a 100K patch difference between 
oss and pre3, I am hoping most of this is in the arch specific
stuff? We probably need to look at the generic diffs, and push 
as much of the mips64 related stuff into 2.3. When 2.4 comes
out, we should be able to take that source, the arch/mips64 
and include/asm-mips64 from oss, and be able to create a kernel 
that will work well.
