Re: [GIT] [3.10] NFC fixes

["John W. Linville" <linville@tuxdriver.com>]

Given recent events, I'm not sure that this is really acceptable as
a fix request.  The service bit and endianness in particular don't
sound like they are addressing big problems, and the other two don't
sound like they are really fixing any regressions either.

Can these wait for 3.11?
