Yes, v2.6.20-236-g43cb76d was merged into v2.6.21-rc1.

I started to create a compat lib with the new kobject stuff, but as you hav=
e=20
done it already... nice reaction time ;)

The v2.6.20 stuff seems even more tricky as the data stored in the structs =
was=20
changed too. The new stuff looks nice, but it gets really ugly if we want t=
o=20
support both.

Best regards.
