Subject: [PATCH] 2.4.2: cure the kapm-idled taking (100-epsilon)% CPU time
Date: Sun, 4 Mar 2001 00:03:56 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.21.0103040000550.922-200000@toy.mandrakesoft.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: TEXT/PLAIN, Size: 422 bytes --]

As attachment. Don't ask me why it works. Rather, if you see why it works, I'd
like to know why :)

Patch also applies cleanly over 2.4.2-ac10.
