Subject: patch acceptance question

I was surprised today to see a change to pcnet32.c in 2.6.31-rc2-git4
which maybe I missed yesterday on netdev.  Most of the changes are okay,
but one in particular will result in some ugly printing.

What is the path that (probably janitorial) changes take that get
included in mainline?   Had I seen it before it went in I would have
commented on it then.

NoUFlow 
    SRAMSIZE=0x1700, SRAM_BND=0x0800, assigned IRQ 21.

Thanks,
