I saw those, he posted 'needs testing' patches. He still behaved 
passive-aggressively, pretending that it was some difficult task to 
perform, as if we were pulling his teeth.

And in this thread he still arguing nonsense in the middle in the merge 
window, claiming that CONFIG_PREEMPT=y is 'academic' - when just a cursory 
look at lkml or just about anywhere else would tell him that amongst bug 
reporters on lkml it's as popular as the other preempt options.

Adding and keeping preempt checks is not rocket science.

The thing is, we should not be forced to shout at him at all: Christoph's 
should be _proactive_ in addressing the shortcomings that were readily 
pointed out literally years ago during review in a friendly fashion, 
instead of wasting a lot of people's time trying to argue around it...

Thanks,

	Ingo
