Ask Linus to pull > that git tree, or what? Good question - I guess I'm not sure what the correct protocol is here. I should have done this long ago, so I was ready for the 2.6.19 window. I also should have gotten it to the crypto guys first, before putting it in the Geode tree. I guess I never really expected it to be in 2.6.19, I just wanted to get this cleaned up and shipped off. It was mocking me sitting there slowly bit rotting. As it stands, I think the right move is to get it into the crypto tree to patiently await 2.6.20.
