It is now RC7 and with 5 weeks of inactivity on my initial 3.10 patch series I had no faith that this critical fix would make it through the SCSI tree before the 3.10 kernel was released. FYI, Linus has taken this change already. I would have preferred to send the patch to linux-scsi for review first, but it had been thoroughly reviewed on the FCoE list, it's a fairly trivial change and I was a hurry to get it into Linus' inbox given his statement about "finding new ways to insult your pets." The patch is also part of the pull request, so it was review-able by anyone on linux-scsi or linux-kernel. Thanks, //Rob PS: I totally botched the title of this pull request, obviously it should say "fcoe pull request for 3.10-rc". ????{.n?+???????+%?????ݶ??w??{.n?+????{??G?????{ay?ʇڙ?,j??f???h?????????z_??(?階?ݢj"???m??????G????????????&???~???iO???z??v?^?m???? ????????I?
