creds-next is dead.

Code ready for the next merge window is in the 'next' branch, while the 
current creds code is in the 'creds-next-subsys' branch, which hasn't been 
picked up in linux-next yet because of LPC and sfr's vacation.

When do you expect these patches to be sent upstream?  Are they ready now 
as an incremental change for 2.6.27?
