If so then at present I'll need to merge kernel-userc-use-list_for_each_entry-instead-of-list_for_each.patch convert-uid-hash-to-hlist.patch fix-user-namespace-exiting-oops.patch which is rather a lot of merging at this stage - surely more than is really needed? - 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/
