Whoever is proposing a feature has the burden to justify that its usefulness is larger than the overhead/cost it adds. Doesn't seem to be the case with this one so far.

Big bloat does come in small steps with each new feature. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
