Kernel release status

The current 2.6 prepatch remains 2.6.16-rc1. A handful of fixes has appeared in the mainline git repository, including a few new features (see below).

The current -mm release is 2.6.16-rc1-mm3. Recent changes to -mm include more semaphore-to-mutex conversions, two-column stack backtraces on i386 (to make oops traces fit on one screen), various memory management tweaks, the SMP alternatives patch, and lots of fixes.
