Rename sys_call.s to entry.s and put it in arch/i386.
Create the entry.S file from the appropriate architechture entry.S.
Add Ethernet drivers for ni5210 and ni6510 to alpha test list.
Added /proc/dma to report names of drivers that use DMA resources.
Change floppy parameters for 800KB, 1.04MB and 1.12MB formats.
Add better reporting for the hard disk driver.
Reset drives in case we changed the geometry.
Make multiple mode and irq-unmasking have default, compiled-in options.
Check for disk change before loading ramdisk.
Didn't clear all of the Ethenret device structure's memory.
SCSI CD-ROM detection notice was printing a number one too high.
open/fcntl - O_SYNC is now implemented on blocks devices and on files
	located on an ext2 file system
Added a revision level in the superblock of the ext2 filesystem
	(starting at revision zero).
Oops, caught a sillyness in memset for constant pattern and count.
	Not a bug, just a waste of time/space.
Removed ncp additions.
