So far, it seems like the patch at least hasn't broken anything (if I had file corruption I should have noticed already, because the testing I've been doing is some large compile/link jobs - those things tend to fail if the .o files are corrupted). It's a little early to say if it solves the problem. I would say it looks good so far - but let's see. We'll also have to see about the test setup duplicating the "large" box. I'll let you know if anything breaks - and I'll ask to have the patch included by the end of the week, if the small box hasn't hosed itself by then. -- / jakob - 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/
