Just for reference: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/2/19/67 Sorry, I thought Rusty meant that we can use it if we invent our own type, see the first part of his answer. You did not answer Frank's mail about _why_ we use it. So I thought you agreed with us, I did not ignore you, no need to be so assertive. It is not a problem to fix this, but neither Rusty nor you explained what is wrong with that call. But we _did_ explain why we use it. You ignored the explanation and the questions. -- Best regards, Artem Bityutskiy (Битюцкий Артём)
