I did not get any review for my change. I literally submitted that within a couple of hours after the request. Could you please tell me what was wrong with that change, and why I did not get any respect not to "xargs rm -rf" my work in that area? I believe I was ignored instead of improving the change, and someone else tried to address the same thing. There was no argument in that thread. It was a technical change. I personally do not feel happy about it. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
