I did not catch that Roman was trying to get this into stable because there was no mention of what stable kernels this was applicable back to (and the fact that it was a performance).

Since he is trying to get this into -stable, disregard my statement about adding it to my tree. --------------enig038063C610A34E6E1F72D3E7 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJP0SUSAAoJEOVv75VaS+3OSDsP/3oAiEaOuT5bmKZz3LA4kPOL 5jFtTeHccAGz9d2gKVCuN4D+9jHmCj7SslZNRAMncKaEVsoRbo5sMpkucjLBF6xg nQTRNIMRh/MGSlG2Cw+T4h9Ci+rXmP4FtrJs2At7jE+9j5dFI3OefNoeP68boivt 2RQ1EbjCFYizwTNY+B5V2tOSwIJf/lmAUTAdyYBP7iS9ybVlrHmlQ8Yi7v6sze2P oNflAJclfniixhlb6WBvN+p5HaQpxtAJZxIGUwPBKBX/5hSn5kJT88dqClPWx8LP XltYtLHzyOE69Ic/7ngfXfOawCt+SFzt2Wl9vqQ7cWKAG2gCy5B8ki5G4N0GCb2b vME3sNGL/XRS+64CAoPdbuS+9gSo/ZRQvlDTF2FC5ZsHHmd4jogQQJPyktT11wHg TsKykz6o0hx0Gi3eF/7XSfqEG2FibKStFYTv53G7s9GmonlO8VjSxVPRTkG7trX+ u+KCFb13KAVp1vhmVMbiQeNlpXkcy9LFp3cJJ30+11lxO26IB6avTtsDFFPRcB5M PYcvFPcdjNmUP7eb6TsN7KxmTJy8+NWxhlX4H2+nLILXEEhkZsvkkCQdh8L2xzdC Ko547FeSIYtwIDL+RChfNde7DQ/F9UdEMUH02QDt7svSD0wZH55Dn5mi8ob4lcRW ICow6BS8OCtB2nJNma0M =XJMR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig038063C610A34E6E1F72D3E7--
