Hi Linus, Please see http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=128618485204253&w=2 I have sent this proposed bugfix several times now but no one is picking it up and Eric seems to have disappeared. It would be suboptimal to release 2.6.36 with a core fanotify feature non-functional. Thanks, Tvrtko Sophos Plc, The Pentagon, Abingdon Science Park, Abingdon, OX14 3YP, United Kingdom.
