Subject: Re: [PATCH v4] rwsem: Support optimistic spinning


When trying to apply this patch again I noticed the following detail:

> From: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr@...com>
>
> [...]
>
> Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr@...com>
> Signed-off-by: Tim Chen <tim.c.chen@...ux.intel.com>

That's not a valid signoff sequence - the person sending the patch 
should be the last SOB.

I've changed it to:

 Based-on-work-from: Tim Chen <tim.c.chen@...ux.intel.com>
 Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr@...com>

which I suspect describes the intention of the SOB line fairly?

Thanks,

	Ingo
