We usually wait for the changes to hit a point release since the API is set into stone at that point. But given that LTP is supposedly being used to test the linux-next tree as well, we may reconsider that in the future. If the test is correctly skipped on older kernels I wouldn't mind including it earlier. -- Cyril Hrubis chrubis@suse.cz
