You are saying _what_ you are doing here, but not _why_ you are doing this. For example, this last sentance does not make sense, why would you want to do such a thing (hint, I know, but you need to explain it in the changelog...) It's getting better, but the changelog still needs work. Often times that's the hardest part of writing a kernel patch. thanks, greg k-h
