I don't understand it nearly well enough, and given that v1 ended up *not* solving the problem, and neither did v2 or v3, I'm not convinced you understand it well enough either. I think v4 is appropriate for applying during the 2.6.30 merge window. If you can find someone who really does understand it to review it and agree it's OK for a post-rc7 merge, I'll consider changing my mind. -- Matthew Wilcox Intel Open Source Technology Centre "Bill, look, we understand that you're interested in selling us this operating system, but compare it to ours.
