Linus, Take a step back, it was an enhancement to a current API, had gotten reviewed by two people when I merged it and made sense. Michel raised his concern after that point, so no matter what it was already in a tree I'd pushed out to public so the only answer when he raised his concern was to revert or fix it. Its a minor problem. Like I'd have pushed this patch post merge window, it solves a real problem that Ilija was seeing and he stepped up and fixed it, post-merge review is what happened here, and really this is nothing compared to say the fallout in the VFS after 2.6.38-rc1. If you think this has anything to do with Intel's ability to break your hardware on every merge then you've got your wires crossed.
