You based it on 3.12-rc3 instead of the current tip/timers/core (which is what your submitting this to). Unfortunately since the branch you pulled from me was based on tip/timers/core, this pull request seems to be submitting items that are already in tip/timers/core (like the changes from Prarit, Miroslav and Zoran). Does any of the changes here actually depend on 3.12-rc3? If not you might just re-generate the branch against tip/timers/core, and you'll end up with a much cleaner pull request. thanks -john -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
