Revert in mainline is d1aa0c04294e29883d65eac6c2f72fe95cc7c049; patch had really been pointless and we'd better watch out for its analogues being introduced. IMO "fixes a data-race" in patch description has become a serious red flag for review by now. Some of them are valid, some are pointless and occasionally actively harmful. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
