It looks like patches 3 and 4 of this patchset are too large to be
accepted by the linux-ia64 mailing list (whereas they both do appear
on the linux-kernel mailing list).

-rw-r--r-- 1 dcn os1 204460 2008-03-26 16:36 generic-xp <<< [Patch 3/5]
-rw-r--r-- 1 dcn os1 163339 2008-03-26 16:36 Lindent <<< [Patch 4/5]

So what do I do about them? I'm assuming I need to re-submit the patchset
with these two large patches broken up into multiple smaller patches?
What's the max patch size accepted by linux_ia64 mailing list?

Thanks,
Dean
