Listen: 1) All of this was done at the request of Linus. 2) You were CC:'d on every single email that Linus and I had on these changes, and you saw every single revision of the patch. Why are you complaining now, please speak up earlier next time when you have a grip. This is why you were CC:'d on the emails. I am actually unhappy Linus waited until 2.4.9 final to put those changes in as I was sure 1 or 2 compile issues would slip through. I have been sending it over and over throughout the 2.4.9 prepatches. Later, David S. Miller davem@redhat.com
