I guess that depends on how you define 2.6.11 material at this point, but I have a few patches that I wrote in there, that I think are potential candidates due to them being fairly trivial, obviously correct and not having caused any problems since entering -mm. Those patches might as well get merged into 2.6.11 now and get out of your queue/hair. The patches I have in mind are these: fix-placement-of-static-inline-in-nfsdh.patch -- This one has no actual impact on the generated code, it just kills a few warnings when building with gcc -W, so merging that up should be harmless. kyrofb-copy__user-return-value-checks-added-to-kyro-fb.patch -- This one just adds a few return value checks to copy_*_user calls and returns -EFAULT when failing. I've seen no complains about the patch on the list and it seems to be the obviously correct thing to do - might as well get merged. warning-fix-in-drivers-cdrom-mcdc.patch -- Trivial, obviously correct, warning fix to an ancient driver. No point in having you carry it around in -mm, let's just merge it. make-loglevels-in-init-mainc-a-little-more-sane.patch -- This one just changes a few loglevels, so the potential for breakage is extremely low. Besides I believe I've argued the case for the new loglevels being more sane than the old ones well enough, and noone has complained about the patch. The patches above are all very low risk, so they shouldn't cause any problems for 2.6.11. Let us merge them now to a) get the bennefit of them in 2.6.11 and b) get them out of your -mm queue. nitpick note: despite some of these patches having From: lines in them in your -mm patch set that list other people they where all written by me. Other people getting listed as From: (and thus later as patch author in the changelogs and bk) seems to happen when other people resend the patches to the list or when they pass through maintainers before they reach you. Just to set the record straight; I initially wrote the patches above.
