[parisc-linux] sym-2.1.18i backport?

[Joel Soete]

Hi Matthew and all,

Did you foreseen to backport your great patch (sym-2.1.18i) to 2.4?
(well some part wouldn't have to be applied (as __init change) but many
stuff would be interesting?)

Is there some interest? faisible?

Thanks for info,
	Joel

I'm considereing do that backport once willy feels the code is "stable".
We have to sort out the u160 support - it's not very clear how it is
supposed to work and it doesn't seem to.

Yeah, I have some patches, but they're not working very well yet.

I'm completely uninterested in doing this, FWIW.
