That branch booted fine for me and didn't show any problems. I wasn't easily able to merge onto linux-next and test there though. I tried applying these the 4 top commits of your branch to "next-20130408" and it didn't solve my problems. A full merge of your branch to linux-next showed conflicts and I didn't dig. -Doug -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
