I would be _very_ glad to see that irq_work thingy gone. I just stumbled upon this irq_work and cursed a little while doing other things. Checking John's series and seeing that it was gone, was a relief. Printing the whole thing in irq context does not look sane. printing the import things right away and printing the remaining things later in kthread looks good to me. > -ss Sebastian
