ok, thanks Greg.

Hirofumi-san tells me we've missed the merge window for 2.6.31, so it
seems that this will go first into the fatfs tree, then go into
Linus's tree via -next for 2.6.32. So hopefully the patch will get
some more testing (perhaps in -mm?) before it needs to be considered
for -stable.

Meanwhile some of the distros and other vendors might decide to apply
it sooner depending on their level of legal concern.

Cheers, Tridge
