Following are 4 patches against 2.6.18-rc4-mm2 The first 2 are bug fixes which should go in 2.6.18, and apply equally well to that tree as to -mm. The latter two should stay in -mm until after 2.6.18. The second patch is maybe bigger than it absolutely needs to be as a bugfix. If you like I can stripe out all the rcu-extra-carefulness as a separate patch and just leave the important bit which involves moving the atomic_add down twenty-something lines.
