David: Any reason why you wouldn't let me change all occurences of spin_{lock,unlock}_irq into the ...{save,restore} versions ? I don't like force re-enabling interrupts the way we do it now with spin_unlock_irq() the way we do it now. Among other things, that breaks SA_INTERRUPT semantics and that breaks some pet project of mine which is to run the IRQ handler with interrupts off when the kernel stack is below a given threshold (to limit interrupt depth) Ben. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
