The patch titled Subject: fault-inject: don't convert unsigned type value as signed int has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is fault-inject-simplify-access-check-for-fail-nth-fix.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/fault-inject-simplify-access-check-for-fail-nth-fix.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/fault-inject-simplify-access-check-for-fail-nth-fix.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: fault-inject: don't convert unsigned type value as signed int This fixes fault-inject-simplify-access-check-for-fail-nth.patch in -mm tree which by mistake partially reverts the change by fault-inject- parse-as-natural-1-based-value-for-fail-nth-write-interface.patch.
