Subject: [GIT PULL] notification updates for 2.6.34-rcX
Date: Fri, 14 May 2010 12:36:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1273854980.2826.28.camel@localhost> (raw)

This branch holds a couple of bug fixes (two of which are actually
stable material).  A pathological race which would put us in a use after
free / double free situation when one thread attempts to delete an
inotify watch while another thread is still adding that watch.  A memory
leak and a Kconfig issue.

Thanks
-Eric
