I never received the email referring to a particular commit because
I am not subscribed to LKML.  The commit revert seemed to work OK on 
gameport.c, but I get an error that gameport.h requires merge 
resolution.

Can you send the gameport.c and gameport.h files to me with the
reverted commit, or tell me how to get this resolved?

Please CC me directly.

Thanks,
