I believe I pointed at the patch required to fix the problem via this URL: http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/viewpatch.php?id=5010/1 A subset of that patch had also already been discussed between Philipp, akpm and myself. The URL also shows when it was applied (though not to a branch of my tree I could've pushed into mainline at that stage.) The fix was already known... The fix had been pointed out by me during the various mails I got about the breakage... I'd effectively already approved the fix by applying it... And I had said I wouldn't be able to sort it until Thursday. Yes, maybe I should've said to Andrew "please grab this patch off this URL and ensure it gets to Linus ASAP." Hind sight is always a wonderful thing. -- Russell King Linux kernel 2.6 ARM Linux - http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/ maintainer of:
