I'm not following your logic. Did you create a new patch that addresses compilation with CONFIG_CPU_V6? The original patch should cause a compile error on v6, if it does not, you either have a broken assembler or you forgot to enable the code that uses these instructions. Neither of them would be a reason to merge the patch. Please explain what is going on. Arnd
