I cc'ed the whole world on that one: Acked-by: Baoquan He <b...@redhat.com> Acked-by: Dave Young <dyo...@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mi...@redhat.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <t...@linutronix.de> Cc: "H. Peter Anvin" <h...@zytor.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gre...@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Dave Young <dyo...@redhat.com> Cc: Baoquan He <b...@redhat.com> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgo...@redhat.com> Cc: <sta...@vger.kernel.org> but yeah, I make a lot of noise ;) Ordinarily I'll auto-drop such things if they turn up in linux-next but it seems this one got fast-tracked in -tip so that mechanism didn't work (this is rare).
