Hmm, OK. I guess either quilt or my sendmbox script messed up.

Oh? :( That came out of quilt send as well... I guess it is my

I'll let one of the s390 folk send you a patch when they feel like
it.

Regarding the lockless get_user_pages patches... it would be nice to
get them into -mm as well. They haven't had as much review as these
patches, but at least they did survive an OLTP run at IBM, so they
should be OK to sit in -mm I think (unless you have to many clashes).

Thanks,
Nick
