Its not far off now. If its possible to do it for 2.6.27, then it will
be done. Since its likely that the merge window won't open for a few
days yet, the chances are that there will be time, but I can make no
promises at this stage since we have a lot of checking to do to ensure
that there are no noticeable changes to the userland interfaces,
