That is really frustrating. I did everything that you and ingo molnar
had complained.

What is wrong with the "provide stack information for threads"? It is a
very tiny patch which did not harm.

The only reason to fix and update the proc.txt was that you told me that
this is the last thing that you miss.

Okay, if the other patch will not included than it makes no sense for me
to get in the other.

Simple question: will you accept the thread stack info patch or not? If
yes, i will spent the time to split proc.txt patch.
