Mark, can you please be more verbose on the reason for this request? Christoffer, patches which are not causing merge conflicts can be integrated (note that the merge window exists so that development code can sit on a development branch and be tested before integration). After the merge window has closed, patches whose purpose is to stabilize the code base are supposed to be integrated, and development code queued for the next merge window. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
