* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-2.6: net: Remove CONFIG_KMOD from net/ (towards removing CONFIG_KMOD entirely) ipv4: Add a missing rcu_assign_pointer() in routing cache. [netdrvr] ibmtr: PCMCIA IBMTR is ok on 64bit xen-netfront: Avoid unaligned accesses to IP header lmc: copy_*_user under spinlock [netdrvr] myri10ge, ixgbe: remove broken select INTEL_IOATDMA
