Thanks. I'll assume Andrew picks it up from the CC...
Actually I would have missed it
And here's the ISA one...
If this one hadn't mentioned it.

Set the ISA device dma_mask in preparation for using the actual device with the DMA API.
Argh. Could we please be better with the changelogs?
This one tells us briefly what the patch does, but it deosn't tell us why it does it. It doesn't tell us whether it fixes some bug (and if so what that bug is) and it gives me no means of determining whether the patch is needed in 2.6.26 or in 2.6.25.x.
