It was CCed to David Miller and you and netdev a long time ago (like 8-9 months ago.) It's been in the -mm tree since then and discussed on lkml a few times too. As I got David's ack for it, and he said to push it through my tree, I didn't think any more of it. My apologies, I should have consulted you again before doing it. thanks, greg k-h - 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/
