What analysis have you performed to lead you to decide that this was a reasonable change to make? Where can people see that analysis and look over it to see if they agree with your assesment of the data? We can't apply a patch like that without any form of analysis or reasoning. You don't say "why" you're doing this, and frankly that really ticks me off. -- 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
