Changes from 1.3.27 to 1.3.28

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. I try to make them useful to everyone, but kernel hackers should take them with a grain of salt and read the patches themselves. The patch file is patch-1.3.28.gz

These are from Linus:

Ehhh.. Ahh.. We seem to have had a off-by-one error, and it's only now with the advent of the all-new-and-improved (20% more for the SAME PRICE) 1.3.28 kernel that we're moving into the "BugFree(tm)" series.

Note that this patch applies on top of a _clean_ 1.3.27: if you applied my earlier pre-patch that fixed the NULL pointer stuff, you need to un-apply it (" cd /usr/src/linux ; patch -R -p1 < old-patch ") before applying the real 1.3.28 patch.
