HEADS UP - devfs integration in master this weekend

[Matthew Dillon]

    Alex's DEVFS SOC work will be integrated into the git master this
    weekend.  The development system may be unstable for a week or so after
    the integration.  Anyone upgrading after the work is committed must
    take care to upgrade both their kernel and the world.

    We are also on-track for getting a new release of gcc into the tree
    (from Simon) and I hope the iSCSI client too (from Antonio).

    Mount-by-serial-number support and /etc/devtab support (mount-by-label,
    based on serial numbers) will be added to devfs after it is integrated.
    This is big deal too as it gets rid of the problem of device renumbering
    if one has a lot of hard drives... something that is easy to do these
    days with E-Sata and Port-Multiplier enclosures.  Not to mention iSCSI.

    The 2.4 release is still on track and scheduled for September.
