Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux-2.6-for-linus
* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux-2.6-for-linus: stop_machine: fix error code handling on multiple cpus stop_machine: use workqueues instead of kernel threads workqueue: introduce create_rt_workqueue Call init_workqueues before pre smp initcalls. Make panic= and panic_on_oops into core_params Make initcall_debug a core_param core_param() for genuinely core kernel parameters param: Fix duplicate module prefixes module: check kernel param length at compile time, not runtime Remove stop_machine during module load v2 module: simplify load_module.
