Since having this patch applied means the issue seen in http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/2538757?do=post_view_threaded#2538757 (BUG at arch/x86/kernel/pci-nommu.c:66 / BUG at ./include/linux/scatterlist.h:90) can't be reached does that mean whatever was seen there is also spurious? Additionally as this issue seems to have been a problem going back to at least the 3.18 kernels, would a fix similar to this be eligible for stable kernels? -- Sitsofe | http://sucs.org/~sits/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-block" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
