This is just what I said. > And you' ll noticed I had an Ack from Paul E. McKenney, the RCU maintainer. I won't ask you either you had the ACK before you sent the patch, because the answer is obvious. Anyway, this doesn't matter. I don't insist on the fix for this place. If you're so negative on this question, we may leave everything as is, and live with this ambiguous place several years more. Kirill
