Sorry, but I'm satisfied with what I've done and I didn't do it just to
get "something" into the kernel. I don't need my patches to become part
of in the kernel, I can handle them by myself. And my free resources to
submit patches just became exhausted (again). Maybe in some weeks or
month ..., I don't know.
Regards,
Alexander
