The -mm patches apply on top of a clean 2.6.11. They *should* contain all the 2.6.11.4 fixes, because Andrew includes the bk-linus.patch in -mm, and the 2.6.x.y policy is that the patch (or a variant thereof) already be in upstream. So Linus's tree has to have it in it, so the -mm tree should have it. If you find something that's in 2.6.x.y that *isn't* in a subsequently released -mm, I suggest you contact Greg, Linus, and Andrew, as it means we've collectively borked something... --==_Exmh_1110996777_3964P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iD8DBQFCOHcpcC3lWbTT17ARAhbUAKC/zHr4CWrQmHIPF5GAXVMIu8GbyQCgnLbe iEOs6xF7eoP1/USsaVYgWrw= =/5lw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1110996777_3964P-- - 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/
