I would tend to agree. linux-next shouldn't be considered a low bar target. Things should be reviewed before showing up there. There are obviously some exceptions, as always, but it shouldn't be over used. I wish MM patches would be applied to mmotm (and linux-next) more conservatively. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs
