Hi Rafael,

I had a chat with Srivatsa about this patch and the V2 version which
people aren't able to test yet.

I proposed that we take this patch as is and hold V2 for some time.
- V2 wouldn't apply cleanly to stable kernels for sure
- V2 isn't yet tested and V1 is.
- Saravana already proposed a patch which would remove most of what
  V2 is adding: http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg346604.html

Our chats:

<vireshk> srivatsa, http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg346604.html
<srivatsa> vireshk, thanks for the pointer.. will try to take a look
by tonight..

<vireshk> srivatsa, Because saravana is actually looking to change much of
                the stuff, what about dropping the V2 fix that I sent
yesterday and
                take V1 only for now?
<vireshk> srivatsa, As V1 would apply cleanly over stable kernels as well
<srivatsa> vireshk, sure, no problem... perhaps you can make the code
                 reorganization of the kobject_move as a separate
patch and submit
                 it for merge window instead of -rc
<vireshk> srivatsa, I was even thinking of that as well
<vireshk> Have two patches, only first one for rc and second one for
next release
<vireshk> srivatsa, But the second patch would be overwritten by Saravanna,
                so might not be of any use
<srivatsa> vireshk, ah, i see.. in that case, we can hold off on the
second patch for
                 now.. just v1 should do..


What do you say?
