Mantra: mainline first, stable later. In the next future, most of this patchset will hopefully go into 2.6.23-rc1. Some people will then complain that 2.6.23-rc1 breaks their 816x. After that the patchkit will be amended and the r8169 regressions in 2.6.23-rcX fixed. Then it will be time to feed some r8169 bits in 2.6.2x.y It may help and/or accelerate things if you can narrow the fix(es) in the current r8169 serie. -- Ueimor - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
