They do affect multiple architectures so I'm not certain where they would get queued. They also live in a branch in my own Linaro repo. Was there a better way for me to deal with this dependency? I was reluctant to make this into one patch set as the other patch really does stand alone as a useful fix. -dl -- 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/
