That's a minor nit though... > o Remove unused cifswarn macro > I think we ought to go ahead and take this for 3.10. I do have some minor concern about having to deal with backports of later patches to kernels that don't have these changes, but hey, that's the price of dealing with old kernels. The sooner Steve merges this into his for-next tree, the better. This bound to give us all sorts of merge conflicts for the 3.10 window, so we want to make sure that people know what to base their work on.
