Marcin got this patch, I hope, and I don't have another possibility to contact with him. Since he managed with this bisection and all the previous patches I don't think there could be any problems, so: Marcin! I'd be very glad if you could test this patch alone; this should apply without any problems to 2.6.21 (with some offset) and later "vanilla" versions (or try to revert Ingo's last patch with patch -p1 -R). Please, contact me on any problems (alas not during the weekend...). Thanks, Jarek P. PS: of course, I'm very curious of this testing too, but, on the other hand, as I've written earlier, I think this patch is needed for logical reasons only, and it really doesn't look like it could make any damage here. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
