You picked a bad time unfortunately. Today will amost certainly be the last linux-next tree before the merge window opens (since I will be on vacation until kernel summit) so if it breaks the tree, it will impact on others testing (and there won't be a followup tree to correct the problem). Also, the commit messages are still very terse (as a few people pointed out) and I have seen no response to Thomas' remarks either. > I got various acks last time it was posted and added them all. > In general it falls more in the "trivial" category, but it's > rather large and all over so I may have made a mistake. It really isn't trivial because we have had various problems with init and const in the past with various toolchains (and even different problems on different architectures with the "same" toolchain). Linus or Andrew may still want to take these, but I don't think I can add it to linux-next right now, sorry. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/
