Apologies for my previous not too polite comment in answer to the
above, but I thought this double patchset was over now that you
converged in #v12 and obsoleted EMM and after the last private
discussions. There's nothing personal here on my side, just a bit of
general frustration on this matter. I appreciate all great
contribution from you, as last your idea to use sort(), but I can't
really see any possible benefit or justification anymore from keeping
two patchsets floating around given we already converged on the
mmu-notifier-core, and given it's almost certain mmu-notifier-core
will go in -mm in time for 2.6.26. Let's put it this way, if I fail to
merge mmu-notifier-core into 2.6.26 I'll voluntarily give up my entire
patchset and leave maintainership to you so you move 1/N to N/N and
remove mm_lock-sem patch (everything else can remain the same as it's
all orthogonal so changing the order is a matter of minutes).
