So what happens when I notice something like this, I just drop it from my queue, the policy being "this was clearly not ready to be sent to Linus". That doesn't mean that it's blacklisted, but it does mean that I don't want to see it returned immediately with the superficial thing fixed that I noticed. That's partly because I feel that people need to take another look and see if there was perhaps something else going on (if I found one small thing, maybe there are others lurking). But admittedly it's probably mostly because I really don't want to feel like I'm the wall that people throw spaghetti at to see if it sticks. By the time it came to me, it was supposed to be ready (unless I'm actively part of the development of said feature of course - which still happens occasionally, but on the whole is a vanishingly small part of the stuff I merge). So I do expect to see it again later in some patch submission, just not right now. Linus
