Greg,

I've ported the patchset to 2.6.26-rc5-mm3 yesterday and I have just
finished testing it. Will this help you if I send you an up-to-date
tarball with this new version? or is it fine for you to review the 
patchset I sent last week (based on 2.6.26-rc2-mm1)?

Tell me what you prefer.

Benjamin
