Jean, attached is my latest patch against kernel 2.6.17-rc5-mm3, now only containing the cleanup parts of my original patch. I hope we can get these changes quickly into the kernel. They mainly delete non-funtioning parts, so the patch should not have many side effects. Signed-off-by: Hans-Frieder Vogt <hfvogt at arcor.de> Am Montag, 5.
