Heh, I think the PPC64 people need to get together and all talk about this, as I just got a different patch, that solves much the same problem from John Rose (it's on the linuxppc64 mailing list.) Can you two get together and not patch the same section of code to do the same thing in different ways? thanks, greg k-h
