- Update the lists of device drivers and tweak a few comments.
- Add a couple of missing options, like PREEMPTION and kbdmux.
- Remove some SCHED_ULE information. It's not stable and we
shouldn't encourage users to make the switch, at least not
right now.
- Remove some 386-specific info. We can't keep old stuff like
this around forever, so let's nuke it.
This is not perfect yet though. There are still some
differences between GENERIC in 6.1 and this document.

In cutting-edge/chapter.sgml:

Do a quick s/take/make in a few places it otherwise seemed awkward.

o Remove 4.X information, this includes notes and sections.
o Update documentation to reflect 5.X and 6.X.
o In some areas, try to make the new content version agnostic.
o Skip areas stating "5.[0-5] and later" as it's relevant - we
need a better way to handle these.
For several items, I checked the NOTES files, manual pages,
CVS history, etc.
