What about the case (as highlighted in previous discussions) that the stable tree needs a simple "dirty" fix, whereas mainline takes the complex "clean" fix? >From what's been said above, this means that the stable tree doesn't get the simple "dirty" fix, because that isn't what's been accepted into mainline. However, it could take the complex "clean" fix, but that may have too high an impact. -- Russell King Linux kernel 2.6 ARM Linux - http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/ maintainer of: 2.6 Serial core - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
