Ok, the patches certainly look pretty enough, and you fixed the only thing I complained about last time (naming), so as far as I'm concerned it's now just a matter of whether it *works* or not. I guess being in -mm will help somewhat, but it would be good to have people with several disks etc actively test this out.
