That patch was very intrusive (and I didn't like the change to the structure organization). An alternative patch was proposed and I took it instead. The patch I took is much less intrusive, but you might still need to adjust things slightly. I've pushed my current WIP for-next branch to my github repo: git://github.com/dledford/linux.git for-next This branch might get rebased still yet before it gets pushed to my official repo at k.o, but it is perfectly fine to check that your patches will merge with my for-next branch without conflicts. --=20 Doug Ledford GPG KeyID: 0E572FDD --WHPPdEKS5pw9NbAeKrj4gPgMHA8r9v6ao Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJWe2QzAAoJELgmozMOVy/dCeMP/jY6a3NcpSwA6U7ykIkUNkbG iHHmRmtTnBHgW5A/od/V586mkDX/NnRQV57S9P0JpTr6HZVgQQtY2Nzhz7ufgI5L m9yCpYixc3FjT7WJKfjezBX2AX4A8AQL/icRVt3aRIsDuCZaYRwlJcp6uzMRuSQt vyjbD7ndlm56+3I03WmxC9kp5P6KWxPgZEgO62GoHV/+eH29aHjR9qOFfPK40djR 4XTufESnshw78f2fIt01iNqS8lbtPBrOmRIMjt/POMkYMpwPRwffOTdUY5s9+4nD HyDIDeQOOx6sMuBKWuTkNuFycBhkwBGjsDztYiWK6cDiUQccnyTkPBVMglGMDQuy UdKSZ5GOaEC4KPmWMPL8Nb8pMBaZ3fiB6j/Wm43LdhioUbFK7Ogr5oFf/G6E+JRZ Kj04wvZmptkDak0ulqW0yfq8KHtc4KlK8YQTe0Z89PnKzL46wQxCw/dIUWUhmT2z vq48AsBfI5A6XzqICDGTdG2+S0CVp8ChvULs7PzP1V3LOiknb4jZMdX41vmH0cao KNvj3G5d6/FLwRXX4/n30WrYFZT9867cFWEsdgbZbnn7r2B2CIjfYdHsCqoj3nIE 2tw95DU0wbxoEW+TV9GXEmrB/wBMAe/j0o73H624ojaa3JlFn7jvyFuzvEvyMvYw UI39Vaask6KlfRrIdEF7 =fk/E -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --WHPPdEKS5pw9NbAeKrj4gPgMHA8r9v6ao-- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
