It's urgent! Well, how about asking Linus to revert commit 2b1e300a9dfc3196ccddf6f1d74b91b7af55e416 altogether and starting over again? It apparently causes more trouble than the issue it was supposed to fix. I've already reopened http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9411 and I'll regard it as unfixed from now on. -- 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/
