I could not find any NACK or any sort of comment on the original patch submission. The only email I saw related to these patches was that it didn't apply cleanly on the previous patch-set (also submitted by the same author, and merged in by you). You had mentioned thta since the patch didn't apply cleanly, you had deleted the patch-set and had asked for it to be re-submitted (which the original author did). > > It's ok to submit other people's patches, but it's a nice idea to ask > them about it before doing so. I was hoping that Eric Biederman might still be there on LKML and that he might jump in once I post the patches! :) I'll add a 'Tested-by' to each of the commits and submit the patch-set.
