I don't think I want to have to maintain this patch for more than eight
minutes.  

Please send me a copy of that script so I can regenerate the patch when
it breaks.  I'll include it in the changelog of the patch, because
there's a decent chance that the patch will get broken during just the
several-hour lag between me pulling Linus's tree and sending patches at
him.

I could maintain these 17-odd patches until 2.6.32 opens, but there's
nothing to be gained by that so I think I'll hose them all Linuswards
later this week.
