Its part of the conflict resolution for the merge of the tip tree. It cannot go into my fixes tree - that is for fixes to bugs in Linus' tree until they are integrated there. The tip and pm trees are both fine on their own, but combined they don't. So this fix has to go into the actual merge commit for the merge of the later tree. When Linus' merges the later of these trees he will also need this fix - or a better one - which is what is still under discussion. > A bit confused about your -next policies, Any better? -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au
