The problem in this particular case is that the design has changed so much since the first iteration that we're not really talking about incremental refinements but rather a different approach to the same problem. If you want me to build on top of the series in next anyways, would it be acceptable if the first patch on top of ee306d2d59 reverts the previous attempt? I think the rest of the series will be easier to review that way. -- larsh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
