Hi,

This is the third submission of the network driver for PS3.
The differences from the previous one are:

  - renamed source file names so that their prefix can match
    with the module name
  - added cbe-oss-dev@ozlabs.org line for MAINTAINER file
  - changed some in copyright comments

If there are no more comments, please apply for 2.6.23.

Thank you

Most of the AGP changes recently have been done in lock-step with
DRM updates, so it's probably easier to have airlied pushing
AGP changes at the same time he does DRM updates.

[Also remove my name from the boot messages.
 Cautionary tale to others: Never do this, when computers
 don't boot, people assume you're responsible even if 15
 other subsystems initialised after yours. :-) ]

We are seeing increasing levels of minor patch style violations in submissions
to the mailing lists as well as making it into the tree.  These detract from
the quality of the submission and cause unnessary work for reviewers.

As a first step package up the current state of the patch style checker and
include it in the kernel tree.  Add instructions suggesting running it on
submissions.  This adds version v0.01 of the checkpatch.pl script.

This fixes the LDM driver so that it works with Windows Vista dynamic
disks which are subtly different to Windows 2000/XP ones.

The patch was needed to get a Vista formatted dynamic disk to be
recognized and parsed successfully.
