That is exactly what we want to apply, we almost never want to apply stuff that is not upstream. When we do apply "custom" patches, they are almost always wrong. We have a long history of this, please let's just take the originals please. > As a result, Xianting's patches fix the bug directly, looking more reasonable to me. Again, please no, let's take the originals and keep in step with what is in Linus's tree which makes maintance and tracking and everything so much easier over time. thanks, greg k-h
