Changes since 2.5.62
* Merge -osdl and -dcl into one tree
  Seperate trees were temporary till NUMA and hi-res timers
  got merged to the base kernel.

+ Update to LKCD 
  Now includes latest memory and kexec hook.

+ Add CFQ and AS scheduler from -mm tree
  Can choose scheduler via the kernel boot commandline:
        elevator=as 
        elevator=cfq
        elevator=deadline (default)
  The anticipatory scheduler is experimental and may not boot
  on some systems.

- Take out kprobe
  No test available or interface available other than the
  simple /dev/noisy
