I'll change my procedure for this patch. If you do have a set of guidelines for when to know whether to redo entire patches vs. patch your patch so to speak, it'd be educational for me to hear it - as it is I just get trained by the person I usually submit to and adopt his process, making things work really well for me submitting to him, but probably not so well for me when I submit to others. I also usually patch/test against 2.6-git - mainly because I imagined that this hopefully limits weird bugs to problems that I've actually introduced instead of someone elses bugs - which is why I didn't notice that acpi_os_free had been removed (although even if it hadn't I shouldn't be using it anyway - ugh.). Thanks for fixing the mistake, looks like I should test against -mm and -git in the future.
