Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 00/22] mm: Add vma_lookup()
Date: Fri, 21 May 2021 18:08:30 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210521180825.nsndxsgg52tca3ct@revolver> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210521174745.2219620-1-Liam.Howlett@Oracle.com>
Hello,
I missed David Hildenbrand on the CC list and in the v2 change log.
I added David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> to the Acked-By for the
series as well.
Sorry for the oversight.
Thank you,
Liam
