"flak"? {sigh} No, it's just been an issue of fixing the issue in the correct manner. You sent this patch a mere 2 days prior, and I've been away since then and haven't even _had_ the chance to apply it to my tree and run it through any testing. Heck, it hasn't even been in the linux-next tree, and seen if it blows up Andrew's notorious machine. Next time, give me a chance to at least build your patch before getting upset and routing around me. The other 2 patches you have sent me have had testing in linux-next and will go to Linus later today, and I have half-a-mind to revert this one, but I just know you will be willing to fix up any problems found in it now :) What a nice way to return from a 3day vacation... greg k-h
