Description:
am6
Autoregulates the virtual memory swappiness.

batch8
Batch scheduling.
+Updated batch logic to return cpu to non batch tasks asap
+Numa compile

iso2
Isochronous scheduling (non privileged low latency non-RT scheduling)
+Bypass file i/o and idle detection in interactivity estimation of SCHED_ISO 
tasks 

smtbase3
Base patch for hyperthread modifications
+Added SMT_SIBLING_IMPACT to reflect the percentage impact running a task on a 
sibling has. When a merge with sched_domains is done, this will be 
configurable for each architecture as this value will decrease as SMT designs 
improve.

smttweak2
Tiny performance enhancements for hyperthreading

smtnice4
Make "nice" hyperthread smart
+Minor bugfix
+Support for SMT_SIBLING_IMPACT to allow +niced tasks to run proportionately 
longer according to the value of SSI

smtbatch4
Make batch scheduling hyperthread smart

cfqioprio
Complete Fair Queueing disk scheduler and I/O priorities

schedioprio
Set initial I/O priorities according to cpu scheduling policy and nice

I've also synced the bootsplash patch with these but it doesn't complete 
booting on some machines so I've left this in the experimental dir for 2.6.3.
