The networking bits look OK to me:

Are you merging sendmmsg through the netdev tree?

Yes.

The conflicts on syscall syscall numbers are an unfortunate pain.

The way we've solved this before is the tree that cares pulls in
the net-next-2.6 tree to resolve the conflict.

If that is the precedent that then that makes sense.  You are good
at not rewinding net-next so I don't expect there will be a problem
there.

Do you know if there are any plans to support sendmmsg on parisc for
2.6.40?  That could get sticky as the parisc tree has a bunch of syscall
catchup support they are doing now.

If you would like, you could send me a patch for net-next-2.6 that adds
the sendmmsg syscall entries and hooks for all the platforms not taken
care of right now.
