Just audit log it. I have no objection about the patch, but have a question. Are you intending to put it into mainline now (and stable too)? Or is this a local bandage for whoever have met the problem (like me)? In other words, should I wait for another lock free solution from Dmitry Kasatkin? By the way, the mail is not delivered to stable-ML while there is "Cc: stable..." line in the commit log. J. R. Okajima
