Trying to sneak something in just before 4.4 is not ok. BTW, right now vfs.git#for-linus contains minimal compat_ioctl patches; unless you want those in right now, I'm holding them back until Monday. It's two patches Jann has posted (with trivial fix in the first one folded in) + not passing fd around where it's not needed (basically, those calls of do_ioctl() in there are guaranteed to go into vfs_ioctl() - the paths in do_vfs_ioctl() that care about the descriptor numbers are not reachable with the arguments do_ioctl() is getting). If for some reason you want those in before -final - yell and I'll send a pull request, otherwise they'll be in one of the first pull requests on Monday. -- 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
