I think these were cp437, and it should read 'Björn'.

Also note that Arnaldo just put more legacy noise into CREDITS...

The /proc/pid/ "maps", "smaps", and "numa_maps" files contain sensitive
information about the memory location and usage of processes. Issues:
- maps should not be world-readable, especially if programs expect any
kind of ASLR protection from local attackers.
- maps cannot just be 0400 because "-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2" makes glibc
check the maps when %n is in a *printf call, and a setuid(getuid())
process wouldn't be able to read its own maps file. (For reference
see http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/22/150)
- a system-wide toggle is needed to allow prior behavior in the case of
non-root applications that depend on access to the maps contents.
This change implements a check using "ptrace_may_attach" before allowing
access to read the maps contents. To control this protection, the new knob
/proc/sys/kernel/maps_protect has been added, with corresponding updates to
the procfs documentation.

This patch creates the core cfg80211 code along with some sysfs bits.
This is a stripped down version to allow mac80211 to function, but
doesn't include any configuration yet except for creating and removing
virtual interfaces.
This patch includes the nl80211 header file but it only contains the
interface types which the cfg80211 interface for creating virtual
interfaces relies on.

This modifies Makefiles and Kconfigs to properly reflect the creation of
generic HID layer.
It also removes the dependency of BROKEN, which was introduced by the
first patch in series (see the comment). Also updates credits.

"When you meet someone now who is writing a compiler or hacking a Unix
kernel, at least you know they're not just doing it to pick up chicks."
...has obviously never met a _Linux_ kernel hacker.
Anyway, sometimes people confuse my email addresses, which is why I
really should add the proper one to CREDITS ;-).
