Bug#267137: kernel ChangeLog-2.6.8

[PATCH] revert partition nonsense
Updating my source to 2.6.7 I see that you applied some
nonsense garbage patch. Please undo.
[ Note by Linus: the fact that DOS_EXTENDED_PARTITION is 5, and we're
iterating over slots 1-4 in the partition table, are two totally
unrelated things. Using the symbolic constant does indeed not make
any sense at all here, as Andries so eloquently points out. ]

[PATCH] lost error code in rescan_partitions
This fixes a path where an error from reloading the partition table
could be
lost.

[PATCH] mark swim3 floppy controller as removable device
Mark the mac floppy controller driver as removable media. This prevents an
entry in /proc/partitions. Several tools will not try to access the floppy
anymore with this change.
