That patch set doesn't seem to be ok. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se ---137064504-1125956565-1259953215=:23464-- -- 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/
