Given the amount of support requests for the meaning of the geography code

I've also added a section to the README.ipw2200 file listing the geography

8fad6939af [PATCH] update bonding.txt to not show ip address on slaves
ifenslave, as of abi version 2, does not set the ip address on the slave
interfaces.  The documentation example however still shows that the
ensalved interfaces should have the same IP as the master.  The patch
simply removes the lines from the example which should no longer appear.

89cee8b1cb [IPV4]: Safer reassembly
Another spin of Herbert Xu's "safer ip reassembly" patch
for 2.6.16.

(The original patch is here:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=112281936522415&w=2
and my only contribution is to have tested it.)

This patch (optionally) does additional checks before accepting IP
fragments, which can greatly reduce the possibility of reassembling
fragments which originated from different IP datagrams.

9772efb970 [TCP]: Appropriate Byte Count support
This is an updated version of the RFC3465 ABC patch originally
for Linux 2.6.11-rc4 by Yee-Ting Li. ABC is a way of counting
bytes ack'd rather than packets when updating congestion control.

The orignal ABC described in the RFC applied to a Reno style
algorithm. For advanced congestion control there is little
change after leaving slow start.
