Hmm, I think about the clean and well structured kind of merge. His 
comment was useful for me. :-)

I always think almost all of tricky method to cross among codes is NO 
good, for maintainer, code readers, porting guys and all.
I like Vadim's method.

Where does this totally out of context post come from?  Given rmk is
Cc'ed it's probably armnommu and you're probably still arguing that
you don't want to merge the remaining tiny nommu bitws into arch/arm?

A bit more context would certainly help..

Hyok's mailer has done it _again_.  The CC list randomly changed from
linux-arm-kernel to lkml, so what you saw was a reply to one of my
messages on the linux-arm-kernel list, being copied out of context
to lkml.

This is at least the third time that I've known the CC list to randomly
change for no reason when Hyok has been replying, and this is the third
time I'm complaining about it.

Hyok - unless you stop this fscking annoying behaviour, you can expect
people to start ignoring you.  If its your mail client doing it, please
change your mail client to something more stable.  You're just _really_
pissing people off with what's currently happening with the CC: line
and that's not helping you one bit.

Thanks.

I added linux-kernel mailing-list by typing error, please excuse me.
we were talking about the directory structure or method.
I sent a mail for an issue and the plan to merge and waiting for comment 
of rmk and Andrew.

P.S. Russell, as my yesterday mail, it seems that you've got some 
misunderstanding.
please calm yourself, please execuse me if my mailer changed your 
various e-mail addresses, but it was once.
(maybe, you have about 3 or more e-mails? it made me the confusion.)
