Interesting... I assumed that explicitly set different section would be enough, but I'd been wrong (or the original noinline would've been pointless, now that I think of it). Consider it ACKed; I can pick it through signal.git, and while it's not urgent I'd send it to Linus after -rc1, with Cc: stable. Or you can send it to him yourself with my usual Acked-by - up to you. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
