As the one responsible for actually applying this specific patch, I find this pretty "interesting"... It's _your_ responsibility to convince me that your patch is correct and should be applied. If no one respondes after a week or so, resend it, with your additional information in the changelog so that the same conversation doesn't happen again. Patches get dropped all the time, remember, I get _hundreds_ of them every day. If I see a disagreement on a patch, then it goes to the end of the line, or usually just deleted from my queue. I rely on the fact that it's up to the submitter to resend and handle the discussion. Yes, we waste engineering time and effort by doing this, and that's fine, we have thousands of developers, but very few maintainers. It's their time that is valuable and the process is optimized for. good luck! greg k-h _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
