I'm identifying another patch here that is pending in -mm that obviously violates the stable kernel rules and I don't believe it should be annotated in a way that you'll scoop it up later. The patch in question hasn't been tested by anybody and I don't think you want such things to ever be merged into a stable kernel series. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
