Possibly.  We'll need a really good explanation for Linus as to why
this is needed (what regression or serious bug this fixes) and why it
is late.  Can you send me something explaining that?

Are you sure you actually managed to update that?

$ git ls-remote master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/cell-2.6.git merge
f90a87b5f5fa46dc6c556e9267a6f25a95fbef14        refs/heads/merge

and f90a87b5f5fa46dc6c556e9267a6f25a95fbef14 is the same commit from
2008-08-09 that you asked me to pull previously.

Paul.
