I'm not on intel-gfx and for some reason these patches didn't show up on linux-mm. I wanted to comment on "mutex: Export an interface to wrap a mutex lock" but http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2015-April/064063.html doesn't tell me which mailing lists were cc'ed and I can't find that patch on linux-kernel. Can you please do something to make this easier for us?? And please fully document all the mutex interfaces which you just added. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
