Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] Kconfig: Allow disabling of CONFIG_DEVPORT

FYI, back when SGI was maintained in SGI ptools, which required a bug
to check in we always had the SGI Bugworks reference, and the ptools
commit description in the commits, with none of that beeing publically
available, and no one comaplined.

Example:

commit f1ccd2955157e1aff992f6aaaba0944209076220
Author: Lachlan McIlroy <lachlan@....com>
Date:   Fri Sep 26 12:16:46 2008 +1000

    [XFS] Fix extent list corruption in xfs_iext_irec_compact_full().

    If we don't move all the records from the next buffer into the current
    buffer then we need to update the er_extoff field of the next buffer as we
    shift the remaining records to the start of the buffer.
