Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: [PATCH] revert msdos partitioning fix
Problem Details: This change from March 3rd causes the partition parsing code to ignore partitions which have a signature byte of zero. Turns out that more people have such partitions than we expected, and their device numbering is coming up wrong in post-2.6.11 kernels. So revert the change while we think about the ...

Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: [PATCH] uml: Fix SIGWINCH relaying
Problem Details: This makes SIGWINCH work again, and fixes a couple of SIGWINCH-associated crashes. First, the sigio thread disables SIGWINCH because all hell breaks loose if it ever gets one and tries to call the signal handling code. Second, there was a problem with deferencing tty structs after they were freed. T...
