If I patch against Linus tree, then the 3 patches suggested by Rusty Russell make no sense, because the Linus tree still has stem compression. So there is no inconsistency bug and there are no comments to add, there is only a single patch to go from stem compression to the new compression scheme. It does not sound so bad to have just one patch that appears at 2.6.9-rc2 that says "change kallsyms compression scheme", so I have no problem producing this patch. I'm now holding on to avoid start sending patches against different trees and make a total mess :( - 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/
