Matthew,

Aside from the third patch which has unfavorable feedback from Greg, any
thoughts on the first two? I purposefully broke them up and would like
to get the first two included even if some variation of the third ends
up not landing.

Thanks,

Hi Matthew,

I wanted to check in once more on the first two patches. If you've got
them queued up for inclusion in a future kernel already please let me
know. If any changes are needed I'd like to get them taken care of.

Thanks,

Hello,

If I need to resubmit these first 2 patches, or you have some concerns
with them, please let me know. I haven't gotten any feedback on them in
over a month.

Thanks,
