Merge commit 'v2.6.30-rc1' into perfcounters/core
Conflicts:
arch/powerpc/include/asm/systbl.h
arch/powerpc/include/asm/unistd.h
include/linux/init_task.h
Merge reason: the conflicts are non-trivial: PowerPC placement
of sys_perf_counter_open has to be mixed with the
new preadv/pwrite syscalls.

Users can + select significant versions among continuously created checkpoints, + and can change them into snapshots which will be preserved for long + periods until they are changed back to checkpoints. Each + snapshot is mountable as a read-only file system concurrently with + its writable mount, and this feature is convenient for online backup. + + Some features including atime, extended attributes, and POSIX ACLs, + are not supported yet. + + To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the + module will be called nilfs2.
