Hello,

 This is a set of patches replacing patch-2.6.26-rc1-20080505-timer_ack-1
and patch-2.6.26-rc1-20080505-timer-8259-0 sent previously.  The patches
have been split up into smaller logically self-contained chunks to make
tracking down problems easier.

 The patch-2.6.26-rc1-20080505-nosmp-watchdog-0 change fixes a problem
with timer interrupts getting masked in the 8259A as a result of
patch-2.6.26-rc1-20080505-timer-8259-6 in the corner-case scenario of
"nmi_watchdog=1 nosmp" being passed at the command line.

 As there are some interdependencies the patches are best applied in the 
order I am sending them; see also the paragraph above.

  Maciej

 As a follow-on I think it might be a good idea to wrap timer_ack into
get_timer_ack() and set_timer_ack() expanding as necessary so that the
related 32-bit and 64-bit code can get unified.
