Changes from 1.3.23 to 1.3.24

These changes are archived on ftp.crynwr.com:pub/kchanges and http://www.crynwr.com/kchanges. I cannot answer questions about Linux -- I merely summarize the kernel patches after reading them.

It turns out that the new partition checking code seems to have bitten at least one person: in that case it turned out to be due to a incorrect partition table that used to work with older kernels. So if you have parition problems with the newer kernels, please check the partition info with fdisk and include the information in your report (and if you notice what's wrong and can fix it yourself, all the better ;-)
