I neither remember the exact name, nor do I still have the patch. Well, I deleted it since it was applied... hrm... But I assume you know which patch I mean. Please re-apply it because: * It does _NO_ harm. * It _fixes_ a bug. * I am doing development which depends on this patch My development is stalled without the patch going into the tree. (Or at least it is a _lot_ more painful). * It does _NO_ harm. * Every "bug" or inconvenience (udelay), that Jeff saw, was not introduced by this patch. It was only in the _context_. In fact, that udelay loop has been there _forever_. Thanks. -- Greetings Michael.
