Hi all,

so here we go, FINAL v4.6. This is the 6th maintenance update for WOLK4.0.


This is now really the last WOLK4 update/release unless there will happen
something really bad!


- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For all of you who love RMAP and also grsecurity/PaX, please write to
'[email protected]' and ask, if they'll do RMAP support please.
I have some hacks in WOLK but they are obviously not 100% correct and I really
want to have full RMAP support in grsecurity/PaX with #ifdef's or macro's or
whatever. I really want to have this in WOLK5.0 based on 2.4.22. It's mostly
the pte-highmem stuff. Thank you.

Changelog from v4.5s -> v4.6s
- -----------------------------
o   fixed:    BUG() while booting (missing brackets :pp)
o   fixed:    correct 64-bit write system call assignment
o   fixed:    select() with an xoffed tty
o   fixed:    compile error when EVFS is selected
o   fixed:    undefined reference to touch_nmi_watchdog
o   fixed:    mainline pagecache is slow and scales _bad_.
                Make it better :p
o   fixed:    SAK: printk killed processes only if grsecurity's
                proc restrictions are enabled.
+   fixed:    some bogus EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL (Michael Getsroither)
o   updated:  HostAP driver v0.0.4
o   removed:  3com 3c59x v0.99Za (it works great for many people
                and also works very bad for many people. Revert
                this until Donald Becker fixed it up.


NOTE:
- -----
VMware v4.0.1 has now official WOLK4 support. So if you use this new version,
there's no need anymore to use the './userspace-patches' supplied vmmon.tar.
